Heat wax until it completely melts. Maintain a temperature between 180 - 200 degrees. Add oil based color in small drops until you achieve the desired color (mixing colors will make a unique color). Add oil based fragrance of choice...not more than 5% by weight. (Note: You can also mix oil based fragrances to create your own unique blend.) This wax blend will work best in clear or frosted glass containers between 4 and 14 oz. Heat the class carefully to warm it before pouring. Using a hot glue gun, affix a pre-tabbed wick to the bottom of your container. (A larger wick with more heat works best. Also use containers that are not too wide...max 3.25" opening.) Pour wax into container leaving approx. 1/4" - 1/2" inch from top. (Note: Wax may shrink slightly. If you pour lower you can top off the wax, however it may cure with a slight second pour line.) Center the wick and position with a wick center guide. (Note: If the wax begins to cure immediately around the edges of the container, it will not crystalize properly). You can stir the wax until the glass heats and melts the prematurely cured wax. Pre-warmed glass will help reduce this problem.) You can also make pillar candles with this wax. Use mold release and make sure you pre-heat the metal container. |
