Making Candle Instructions.

These instructions cover the process inside our Candle Kits which includes pre weighed wax and fragrance making it super easy.

Step 1: Stick the wicks to the centre of the jar or  tin using the small double sided stickers.

Step 2: Position the lolly stick ontop of the jar so the wick goes through the hole. This keeps the wick straight

Step 3: Microwave: Heat for 30 seconds at a time , stirring in between, until the wax is melted.  You should only need about 2-3 minutes.Pan: Sit in the water until all the wax has melted being careful not to burn yourself when removing the jar from the pan.

Step 4: If adding scent (which we have pre-measured for the amount of wax in the kit) you can add this now and stir for 1-2 mins before pouring the wax into the container just below the ridges making sure you split the wax if using multiple containers. Centre the wick using the wick support in step 2.

Step 5: Allow your new candles to sit without being moved until set. Ideally  leave for 3 days to allow them to cure before you light them. Trim the wick to 5mm before lighting.

Step 6: Now it is time to enjoy your new candle and marvel at just how brilliant you are!
