DIY Candle-Making Instructions:
- Prepare Your Wick. Remove film over stick, making sure not to remove sticker from yellow paper. Combine wick tab with sticker (try to center) and add wick to wick tab. Remove yellow film from bottom of sticker and attach wick set to bottom center of candle vessel.
- Choose your scent. You have 2 x 0.5 oz Scents included in your kit. You can use one or combine 2, but do not use more than 0.5 oz total of fragrance.
- Pour chosen fragrance directly into candle vessel.
- Microwave your wax in a microwave safe container on HIGH in 30 (thirty) second intervals. Ensure all wax is melted and temperature reaches 185-190 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Once wax reaches 185-190 F, pour into vessel and stir with fragrance for 2-3 minutes. This part is VERY important, so don't skimp on the minutes. *Some people opt to add glitter and dried flowers at this stage too - OR keep until end*
- Once stirring is complete, LET COOL + ADD FLOWERS / charms/ glitter
- Use blank label to name your candle. If in a group, share your name and why you chose it! Attach label to bottom of candle OR inside of lid (make sure to do this AFTER candle has cooled & set)
- LET CURE FOR AT LEAST 72 HOURS BEFORE FIRST BURN!
