Do you have spare beeswax that you would like to use to make beautiful candles?
Candlemaking is a great way to use up surplus beeswax. Beeswax candles have been used since ancient times and there is good reason for this.- There is no toxic by-products as they burn as beeswax is naturally environmentally friendly.
- They provide a beautiful natural aroma to sweeten your home.
- Beeswax candles have a longer burn time.
We also stock:
- the best wick for beeswax candles - pure cotton braided in the correct size required.
- wick holders to hold the wick firm while the candle is setting.
- a wicking needle to push the wick through the hole in the mould.
- bain-maries available in 1.5L and 2.5L. These are ideal for melting your beeswax safely and pouring the wax into the moulds.
Easy Instructions:
- Melt the wax in your wax melting pot. Prepare your mould by inserting the wick cut to the right length.
- Position the rubber bands around the mould to hold it together correctly.
- Wrap the wick around the wick holder to hold it firm.
- Pour the wax.
- Let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours until the candle has set. Then carefully trim the wick. Remove rubber bands and carefully open mould being careful not to rip it further than it is split already.
