Tips for procuring candlemaking

  1. Choose Your Wax Type

    • Paraffin, soy, beeswax, or palm? Each has different properties and melting points.
  2. Select the Right Wick

    • Size and material (cotton, wood, etc.) matter. Match the wick to your wax type and candle diameter.
  3. Consider Fragrance Oils

    • Not all fragrances work well in candles. Check compatibility and the scent load limit for your chosen wax.
  4. Experiment with Colors

    • Use candle dyes designed for the wax type. Start with small amounts to achieve desired hues.
  5. Temperature Control

    • Monitor melting and pouring temperatures. Pour too hot or cold, and it may affect the candle’s finish.
  6. Safety First

    • Work in a well-ventilated area. Use heat-resistant containers and keep a fire extinguisher on hand.
  7. Test Your Candles

    • Always conduct burn tests to check for scent throw, burn time, and wick performance.
  8. Use Quality Equipment

    • Invest in a scale, thermometer, pouring pot, and molds to ensure consistency in your candles.
  9. Consider Container Options

    • If using jars or vessels, ensure they are heat-resistant and suited for candle-making.
  10. Label Your Candles

    • Include ingredients and safety warnings, especially if selling or gifting candles.
  11. Learn About Curing Times

    • Some waxes benefit from curing before burning, improving scent throw and burn quality.
  12. Keep Records

    • Document your recipes and results to replicate successful candles in the future.

By considering these tips, you’ll be well on your way to successful candlemaking!
