Making Your Candle Ryan Vanderwood

While candles add warmth and light to every space, making your home feel cozier, they don't last forever and can be a little pricey. However, you can make them yourself really easily with a few supplies and a little bit of know-how.

This book is based on a guide, which the author gives to all her students when they attend one of her face-to-face workshops. It's an introduction to candle-making at home and requires no previous knowledge. It covers everything you need to get started: types of wax, wicks, dyes, fragrance oils, equipment, etc. and of course candle-making techniques + six step-by-step candle-making projects - to make at home. Once you've mastered the techniques you will be on your way to starting a new hobby and you'll certainly be able to create professional-looking candles for yourself, friends and family at a fraction of the price you'd pay online or in store.
