Instructions for Use:
-
Prepare Your Containers: Ensure your candle containers or molds are clean, dry, and free of dust. Attach the wick securely to the bottom of the container using adhesive or wick tabs.
-
Melt the Wax: Using a double boiler or wax melter, slowly melt the Soy Wax over medium heat until it reaches approximately 170-180°F (77-82°C). Stir occasionally to ensure even melting.
-
Add Fragrance (Optional): If you'd like to add fragrance, pour in your desired fragrance oil once the wax is fully melted (usually around 170°F/77°C). Stir thoroughly for 1-2 minutes to ensure the fragrance is well incorporated into the wax.
-
Pour the Wax: Allow the melted wax to cool slightly to around 150°F (65°C) before pouring it into your prepared container or mold. Pour slowly to avoid air bubbles and ensure an even distribution.
-
Let the Candle Set: Allow the candle to cool and solidify completely. This typically takes 4-6 hours, but for best results, let it set overnight.
-
Trim the Wick: Once the wax has fully hardened, trim the wick to about ¼ inch (6 mm) above the surface of the wax before lighting your candle.
Tips:
- If making multiple candles, pour the wax in small batches to ensure even consistency.
- For a smooth, professional finish, gently tap the container after pouring to release any air bubbles.
- If the top of your candle has imperfections or cracks, reheat and add a second layer of wax for a smooth finish.
