The candle making craft
A craft is skilled practice of some particular trade. People who perform a very particular type of skilled work are known as craftsmen or tradesmen. It usually takes several years to become knowledgeable and proficient at the craft or trade you have chosen.
You can submit your hours and do a written test to the licensing authority of your area and if you pass you will receive your trade or craft license. You will then be known as a craftsman, tradesman or Journeyman in that line of work.
Candle making is a craft and it's going to take some time to become knowledgeable and proficient. You will require time to learn how to make candles of any type and shape. You will learn by trial and error the methods to successfully add fragrances and decorations.
You will find out how to use your molds. As a craftsman you will also need to learn how to use your tools properly and effectively. Eventually you will find "your favorites" waxes or oils, and fragrances, along with decorations that you enjoy working with the most. This will be when you finally understand how to use your tools, fragrances and wax of your choice to work with. Candle making then will be very relaxing, easy and satisfying for you.
I think it would be a great idea at the start of your candle making craft to buy a note book or loose leaf binder that you can add to when needed.
Then use your book or binder for several things:
* Making a list of essential tools to buy.
* Make and inventory the items you have, or will use from the kitchen.
Add any items you purchase to your inventory.
* Make an inventory of your candle making stocks, waxes, oils, fragrances and decorations.
You should always know the value and quantity of your inventory items. This will allow your being able to know your profit margin quickly for any type of candle market you may wish to sell to.
* Record temperatures of the stove, of the wax when it is ready and the temperature of your work area.
* Treat your craft like any professional does.
* Make notes of quantities of each item used for each kind of candle you make.
This book will be a treasure for you. When you make a poor batch of candles, and have recorded all steps taken during the process of making this particular batch you can simply read this and know this one is to be done differently. The reverse is also true when you have made a fantastic run of candles your record of success will be easily repeatable.
Many, mechanics, plumbers, and electricians, carpenters, and many other craftsmen or tradesmen have put in the time to learn their craft taken the tests have been licensed. After working for someone else they decide to open up their own business.
You might want to consider going to the farmers markets, or flea markets. You might want to find out if a few business owners in your area would accept your products on consignment. With unique well-thought-out, quality products, priced well, with a good profit margin you may well find yourself with a very lucrative business that could easily place your job.

Candle Making Fragrance Oils For Your Homemade Aromatic Candles
As a candle consumer and now, a handcrafted candle maker
Making Christmas Candles and Candle Making Tips
By Kaye Dennan
Candle making produces a product that is so popular and desired by so many people. Many people love to have them as decorative item, while others like to have them burning all the time. Perfumed candles are the most popular candles for home as they provide a long lasting aroma.
This is not an expensive hobby to set up and the wax to make the candles is not really very costly either. If you use good quality fragrances you will find them a little more expensive initially, but as they are concentrated you do not use very much and they do have have a much better throw off perfume. If you are making candles to sell then I would definitely recommend you use the better quality fragrance because you will be looking for repeat business.
Prepare your molds well so that you candles do not look messy.
Do this step before you start melting your wax. Make sure the molds are clean with wicks in place, and ready for warming before you pour. Warm molds will prevent you from having 'pour marks' down the side of your molds.
Glass molds MUST be heated before being poured into. Put them into a cold oven and bring the temperature up to 150 degrees. At this temperature you should not have any problems with breaking glass. For safety sake, anyway, it is suggested that you use slightly thicker glass. Stay away from the very thin fragile glass because you don't want them to break when they are burning.
Second pour of wax.
To prevent a drop in the top of your finished candles you will need to top up your candles (a second pour), when your wax in the mold is cool to touch. Heat the second pour of wax (making sure to give it a couple of minutes good stirring) to approximately 10 degrees hotter than your first pour, then top up your candles. If you do this, and your candles were left to get cool enough, the top should remain nice and flat after the second pour. But, if you do a second pour when the original wax is still too warm, the completed candle will have a nipple effect at the top.
It is important that when using colored wax that the second pour is done with some of the original wax or the color may not match.
Wicks
It is possible to buy pre-tabbed and pre-waxed wicks, but it is up to you what you buy. Wicks are a very important part of candle making because of the burn factor. You will need to research this, especially if you are making more novelty candles. You will get plenty of help from a good supplier.
Flat Candle Base
If the base of your candle is not flat simply place it on a hot pan surface and melt it down so that it is flat.
Christmas Candles
For Christmas candles you can of course use red and green wax and you can also use decorations to dress up any candles that you make. If you buy long taper candles you can roll white candles in red or green and use them for the table. There are various ways to add gold or silver to your candles as well. When making your own candles you can layer Christmas decorations on the outside of the candle. Just make sure that when you are using any decorations that they will not cause a fire hazard.

The ebook takes you from your very first thought right through to a finished product. There are also some beginner projects to help you start.

Recycle Old Candles And Create New Fragrant Candles
By Scotie Keithlow
There is nothing better than the right atmosphere to create the perfect setting for a romantic rendezvous. People use many accessories to capture the essence of romance and relaxation. The younger generation prefers soft toys and balloons and mature people seem to appreciate flowers and candlelight to set the mood.
The dim, flickering orange light of candles is mesmerizing and immediately relaxes the senses. A way to enhance the effect of these candles is to use fragrant ones with various colors that appeal to the senses. Thought these candles are extremely luring, the hole that they leave in the pocket is something no one looks forward to. And the best way to get around this difficulty is to make some fragrant, colorful candles on your own.
The task ahead is extremely easy and can be accomplished by simply following some basic steps. Take some old candles and place them in a container. Place this container in another larger container that has water in it and put this apparatus on fire. The boiling water will melt the wax. Be sure never to pace the container with the wax directly on the fire since it can be dangerous. If you do not have enough old candles, buying candles in bulk quantities will keep the total cost down and will definitely be cheaper than the exorbitant price charge by showrooms for these aromatic beauties.
While the wax is melting prepare the moulds. You could choose any kind of a container that suits your fancy. Though aluminum containers may get hot when you pour hot wax in them, they are the best choice. You could also use old glasses for designs or disposable paper cups for a simple tumbler type of look.
You would also need to prepare the wick of the candle. This could be obtained easily from an older candle if possible or be prepared using white cotton straw. Make sure that you rub enough wax on the straw to make it taut. This will make it easy fro you to insert in the melted wax once you have placed the wax in the mould.
Add the desired oil color into the melted wax and be sure to add the color slowly and mix thoroughly so that you know when to stop. Pour the liquid wax in the container and add the wick slowly, ensuring that it goes right in the middle and straight down.
If you wish to make candle with layers of different colors, then you must melt wax in different containers and add appropriate colors to each lot. Make sure that the mould you choose for a multicolored candle is tall which allows for the layers to show. Of utmost importance is the manner in which you pour the different colors. Each color wax should be poured after the color prior to that has cooled off. If you do not take care of this then the colors will mix and all that you may be left with is a murky colored lump.
For fragrance candles add the oil-based fragrance of your choice to the melted wax. This should be done right at the end after the color has been added and stirred since the heat may cause the fragrance to escape. These fragrances are easily available in the market and range from floral ones like jasmine and rose to others like tea tree, lemon grass and musk.
After the color, fragrance and wick have been added, place the mould in the freezer to allow the candle to come out easily. Now all you need to do is to light the fire!

Candlemaking - An Introduction
By Angela Vorster
Candlemaking is a very exciting and enjoyable hobby as it is easy to learn. The only limitations are your imagination. In today’s modern world candles are still very popular, even though they are no longer only used as a source of light. Candles are used symbolically for many special occasions such as weddings, christenings, barmitzvahs as well as romantic candlelit dinners or just simply to enjoy the ambiance created by lighting a candle and enjoying its scent.
Shop-bought candles can be very generic and not particularly unique. If you really want unique candles, the best is to make them yourself. Candlemaking allows you to express your creativity as well as providing a wonderful way of decorating your living space and turning a house into a home.
Making candles is very interesting and yet the basics are relatively simple to learn. The key to success is practice and experiment until you have the desired result. The basic necessities for this craft aren't expensive. The costs involved depend entirely on whether you want to make candles for your own enjoyment and gifts for others or you want to set up a candlemaking business. You will need the following to start your new, exciting hobby:
Use a stove as your heat source. If using a gas stove, make sure that the wax does not come into direct contact with the open flame.
The wax that you have decided on. Once you have decided what type of candle you’re making, you can choose the wax most suitable for the candle.
A wick that is suitable for the type and size of candle that you are making.
The mold that you have chosen. This can be anything that can withstand heat which will allow you to remove the completed candle, or in the case of container candles, will withstand the heat of a burning candle. Usually, if it can withstand boiling water, it is suitable as a mold. You can find something in your kitchen, such as a jar or even a juice carton. Just make sure that the container will not crack or melt once the candle is poured. You can also buy ready-made molds online or at candlemaking supply shops.
Set up a double boiler on your stove. You can use a small saucepan inside a larger saucepan using a metal ring, such as a cookie-cutter, to lift the smaller saucepan off the bottom of the large saucepan. This also makes it easier to get to the wax. You can also buy saucepans that are designed for candlemaking, although this can be costly and is not necessary when just starting out.
A lipped pouring jug.
A fragrance or essential oil and dye if you wish.
Putty, such as plumber’s putty, or mold sealer to seal the mold.
A thermometer (temperature control is essential for candles with a beautiful finish).
Use a candy thermometer as an ordinary household thermometer is not graded to the high temperatures used in candlemaking.
Kitchen scales, preferably digital, for accurate weight measurement.
Stainless steel measuring cups and spoons.
Heat-resistant gloves to protect your hands.
These are the basic necessities that you require to learn and enjoy the craft. Now you need to add your imagination to the mix and you are on your way to candlemaking success!

Soy Candle Making - Six Essential Fragrances That Sell
By Katherine Durkes
When making your own candles, there are so many fragrances to choose from! How can you make a decision when you want to try everything? If you're having a hard time deciding, here are six fragrances that are sure to please a wide range of people. These are especially helpful for a starting line of candles to sell. Based on personal experience, the six fragrances described below conjure many beloved associations that attract people like an ice cream truck at the beach.
The "Big Three": Laundry, Vanilla, and Lavender
These fragrances are the "big three" because people are bound to love - not just like - at least one of them. Many candle makers will tell you that you cannot go wrong with them. If you only have three fragrances in your line, do these.
#1 - Laundry
Are you surprised? If you think about it, who doesn't love the scent of fresh, warm laundry straight from the dryer? For many people, it is a scent associated with home, a mother's practical care, and sometimes first loves.
Laundry candles instantly bring a sense of clean coziness to a room. It takes a long time to burn out on the fragrance, too, because it's designed to be smelled every day. The smell of laundry is almost universally liked and makes for a very popular candle that is hard to keep in stock.
#2 - Vanilla
Men as well as women adore vanilla. It also has a comforting, homey scent; it is so popular that almost every fragrance company has their own "take" on vanilla. It's even been proven to help sell houses! But don't think that vanilla automatically means a dessert scent because it is a very adaptable scent. It can be fresh and floral as well as sweet, sultry, or spicy. You will definitely end up carrying a vanilla candle regardless of your intentions because people will demand it!
#3 - Lavender
Does lavender even need an explanation? It is one of the oldest fragrances, and one of the best. Lavender is the ultimate relaxation scent, often people's main association with aromatherapy. While it's true that everyone does it, from the tiniest home candlemaker to White Barn Candle Company, the lack of uniqueness doesn't matter.
The demand for lavender candles never runs out. People can't get enough of the perfectly-balanced scent, the harmonious intersection of sweet, herbal, and floral. If you don't carry at least a basic lavender candle, people will get their fix somewhere else.
The next three recommendations are less common in home fragrance and will round out your line. They're also perceived as more upscale and fresh when people try them, especially if you put your own unique spin on them. Though they might seem strange at first, try to stay open minded. You may be surprised!
#4 - Earth / Dirt
You might think this is a weird choice - dirt-scented candles? Well, soil, to be exact. Rich, freshly-turned soil, the scent of growing things. Try it, and a surprising number of people will exclaim, "Wow, this is amazing!" when they smell your earth candle for the first time.
The scent of fresh earth is subtle, and the good ones don't seem like a fragrance. When burned, a soil candle will add a richness and freshness to the air that you may not consciously notice. Many people respond to the scent of clean dirt because it makes them think of happy childhoods, playing outside, digging in the dirt, their first garden.
#5 - Pear
This is one of the most under-exploited fragrances at this time, but people love it. A lot of *men* love it, so if you want to appeal to men without resorting to typical men's scents, try it. Pear is more mature than other fruits like strawberries or apple, which people think of as more cute or "kiddie" scents. Pears are associated with autumn, not summer, which adds a feeling of sophistication and memories of cool rains and falling leaves.
The best part is that pear is an excellent blending fragrance. Even if you're a beginner, you can make a unique pear-based fragrance by adding florals, woods, or spices. It's hard to make a pear fragrance smell bad, just as long as you start with a high quality scent.
#6 - China Rain
China Rain is incredibly popular in oil perfumes but overlooked in home fragrances. A good China Rain fragrance is not heavy or overbearing, but a balance of exotic, floral, fresh, and feminine all at the same time. Women love China Rain for its beautiful and mysterious scent, and it will appeal to those who have an exotic streak in their personality.
China Rain is a traditional perfume formula, and you may have to try a few before you find one that you really like for candles. Every fragrance of this kind has a slightly different character.
With these six fragrances, you can form a candle line that appeals to both men and women in a wide range of ages. You can put your own twist on them, but most people love them just as they are. They combine well into mini-sets that can be burned together, such as laundry and lavender, or vanilla and pear. Keep all six on hand, and you will always have a good "emergency gift." Just make sure you use good quality fragrances!
Scent Summary:
#1 - LaundryGood for: men, women, especially college or high school age.
#2 - VanillaGood for: women, men, housewarming gifts, any holiday.
#3 - LavenderGood for: women, men, office or acquaintances, especially people over 40.
#4 - EarthGood for: men, women, outdoor enthusiasts, gardeners, children (because it "smells like dirt!")
#5 - PearGood for: men, women, over 25 depending on slant of fragrance, especially in summer and fall.
#6 - China RainGood for: women, romantic gifts, also expands well to lotion and other toiletries as a wearable scent.
