Candle Making: Learn How to Make Your Own Candles from Scratch
The Fine Art of Candle Making
Candle making is a very interesting hobby to have. Candles can be used to bring light into a dark room, but they can also work well as decorative objects. They can fill a room with color, or they may engulf it with a beautiful scent. Plus, they have always been the perfect gift – from ancient times to the present.
When making candles, you have to pay attention to a variety of things like:
The design of the candle
The type of wax
The wick
Nothing can be left to chance. This is why you need to learn everything about this hobby before picking it up. Don’t worry, though, as once you learn the basics, you will be able to create the perfect candles for yourself or your friends.
But this nice book today!

Love candles? Want to start making your own? Make a small business out of it?
Barbara Gammage’s “Candle-Making” will certainly help you get started!
I want to make a few candles after reading this inspiring book. Candles will be easier for you after taking the steps you’ll learn from this book.
Topics include:
-How to make your own candles (lol duh)
-Types of candles
-Types of wicks
-Using essential oils and fragrances
-Candle-making history (Did you know the first candles were made of sheep meat?)
CONCLUSION
I highly recommend this candle book. It’s a great guide for eager beginners. After making your candles, you don’t have to worry about spending your precious money at Yankee Candles anymore.
My only complaint about this book is the lack of pictures. Otherwise, this book is a DIY treasure.

When I was a child I made candles. I was surprised at the changes for making candles. I believe I shall attempt to make some candles. Will stick with basic molds.
Since beeswax is getting harder to find will use paraffin. And stay with basic scents. And the same for colors.
