Kenzie opened her candle shop, 'Kenzie's Candles & Melts' in Feb of 2022 just six months after starting candle making. Join us as we chat about how she got started, her business journey so far as well as about her plans going forward. Also, a bit behind the curtain of her business as well.
I hope this provides inspiration to other new candle makers wanting to start a business as well!

Wade, I used to make candles years ago, really only sold to friends. I'd like to get back into to making them for myself and maybe sell to co-workers and friends but when I think of all the testing I went through and money spent back then it makes me not want to go through all that again. I used to use Joy wax from Natures Garden, never wanted to use straight paraffin. Is there anyway to cut down on all the testing and throwing money out the window doing it? Maybe a good guide for a starting point? I'd love to use candle tins since that would probably cut costs when I have them shipped to me. Would love advice from you or any candle makers on here.😊

Im super interested because I'm in a small town too.. I currently am a vendor in someone else's place and I'm not selling much but I'm trying to expand.. I still have to keep a real job at the moment..

Hi Wade I’m hoping you can help me! I’ve researched and researched but can’t find an exact answer 😫 I’ve been making candles with IGI 6006 wax and they keep sending off a horrid stream of black smoke/soot (not all the time, but more often than not). I’ve tried going down wick sizes, keeping wick trimmed and also added less FO. I’m still getting sooting. 😫😫 Do you think I should add stearic acid in?? I don’t know what else to do, other than go and use a whole new wax. 😢😢 Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Wade hi. Enjoying your videos very much. I want to start making candles but it seems here in South Africa we lack some of the more expensive or specialized equipment such as the presto pots and really beautiful containers. I am looking online but feel overwhelmed. There are many items from the East but I am not sure about security or reliability. I suspect that th South African candle supplies stores could trace these items for me, but I don't want the extra time and expense that would entail. Could you recommend any reliable supply companies for me?

@shannonharper5511 11 месяцев назад
Hi! I'm Kenzie's mom and work with her in the shop. Everything that we use are USA products. The wax is all natural wax with no hardeners or additives. All our scents are carcinogen free. We Source them with companies that will either formulate them special for us or with companies that only offer clean scents. They are very clean with a very smooth burn!

@debstaggs1425 11 месяцев назад
You are probably talking about the myth about paraffin waxes. google or use youtube and go look up paraffin vs soy wax, this channel has one and so do a few more candle makers, but Wade's is the best of course.
@shannonharper5511

We simply choose not to use the additives are hardeners and our candles. We feel that we get a much smoother burn without any wax hardeners or additives.
