Directions

  1. 1. Prepare Beeswax: Measure 8 oz beeswax pellets using a kitchen scale or by filling an 8 oz candle jar twice. Place in a suitable container for melting (e.g., glass measuring cup, tin can).
  2. 2. Set Up Double Boiler: Position the beeswax container in a pot with simmering water, filling the pot only 1/4 full. Ensure no water spills into the beeswax.
  3. 3. Melt Beeswax: Allow beeswax to fully melt in the double boiler (about 10-15 minutes).
  4. 4. Prepare Essential Oils: Combine essential oils in a glass container and mix thoroughly with a glass stir rod or stainless steel spoon.
  5. 5. Anchor Wick: Dip the wick’s metal end in beeswax and position it at the center-bottom of the 8 oz jar. Press down with stir rod to secure.
  6. 6. Blend Beeswax & Oils: Remove melted beeswax from heat. Let cool slightly, then mix in essential oils until well combined.
  7. 7. Position Wick: Wind the top of the wick around a stir rod or chopstick to center it. Place the rod on the jar’s rim.
  8. 8. Pour Beeswax: Carefully fill the jar with the melted wax mixture, ensuring the wick stays centered.
  9. 9. Set Candle: When wax has hardened, release the wick from the rod and trim it to 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Allow the candle to cure for 48 hours.
  10. 10. Usage Tips: Label your set candle. For optimal burn, melt the candle to its edges on the first use. Enjoy!

Hi, my name is Karen Williams. As a professional aromatherapist, I love to create amazing blends that inspire and promote a healthier lifestyle. I got my start many years ago as a registered nurse working in the hospital system. But along the way I knew something was missing. I wanted to help people more holistically. Then, I discovered essential oils, and my approach to life changed forever. Now, I’ve made it my mission to share what I’ve learned about aromatherapy with my friends, family, and the world. Because - life is so much better with health, happiness, and community.
