Burning a beautiful candle in a soothing scent at the end of a long day is a great way to unwind and relax. Sometimes, though, it's hard to actually burn that expensive candle. They often feel too pretty to use. Making your own sounds like a hot mess waiting to happen, but not if you have the right
Candle Making Kit for the job.
Dozens of Amazon shoppers say the
DIY Candle Making Kit is the perfect introduction to the craft, and that it's much easier to DIY than you might think. The candle making set comes with two options for candle shape (square or cylindrical) and four colors. It includes four natural, calming scents and everything else needed to make a candle at home, including tins, bags of
Soy Wax, a stainless steel graduated melting pitcher, cotton wicks, string sticks, bowtie clips, glue dots, a digital thermometer, and an easy-to-understand instruction manual that walks you through the whole process.
The soy candle making kit gives you the tools to melt your wax, mix in a color and fragrance, pour it into a jar, and add a wick. All you have to do is wait for it to harden and cool, pop it out of the jar, and find a match to spark up your brand new, ready-to-use candle. The entire bundle is under $35, and shoppers say that, with everything included, it's a "great value" to get started on making your own candles at home.
