Thank you Lucy-Ann, happy candle making!

Candle making is a science, it takes lots of testing to come up with the right combination of wax/wick/fragrance oils to make a safe and efficient candle. Picking a wick that will perform with the combination of wax/fragrance oil is key for the hot throw, and safety. One other point I want to make is that most essential oils are not meant to be burned in candles, some of them are toxic to pets and should only used on aromatherapy that will not heat them just disperse the scent through the air.

If the right wick (smaller wick) and container (a more narrow form) is used it shouldn’t be a problem…just use essential oils with higher flash points (over 150F) and more stronger scents.

thanks for video!

Great tutorial! I gotta be honest though, I was hoping you’d give us the link to the materials needed so I could just click and order everything right away ☺️

Thanks for the feedback Becky. I agree and plan to test some supplies available on Amazon to be able to share universal links

What measurements did you use when pouring the candle and oil?

Hi Erica! I used 130 g soy wax and about 2.5 ml essential oil for a lightly scented candle, but you could add up to 7% off the wax weight in oil depending on your preference.

Hello dear how much fragrance oil in Oz will I need to make one 60z scented candle??? Once I know one I can calculate the rest

I recommend calculating 6-7 per cent of the wax weight for a heavy scent, or just a few drops for a lighter scent 🌸

Very helpful thanks 😊

Hi Juliana. I have seen other fragrance blend oils that are called natural, but you would have to read further into it to check they are non toxic.

Hi Gloria! I haven't tried wooden wicks yet but I want to because I think they look so nice! I will have to get back to you with anything I learn about that. In the meantime a I found this information online "Always keep your wood wick trimmed to (1/8 to 1/4) of an inch to ensure optimal burn time and flame height. Before relighting your candle, simply clip or pinch the burned portion of the wick, taking care not to get any ash into the wax. Only trim wicks on a thoroughly cooled candle."

Lovely Girl. Looks like a Beautiful botanical perfumed candle making a soy wax candle. So Cute 🥰
