How to Make Your Own Soy Candles


Introduction:

Discover the simplicity of crafting your own soy candles at home! Using pure soy wax, you can create longer-lasting and wonderfully fragrant jar candles that make perfect gifts.

What You'll Need:

- Glass Measuring Cup: 16 oz. to 32 oz.
- Soy Wax: 1 lb. (16 oz.)
- Wax Thermometer
- Fragrance: 1 oz.
- Glass Container
- Wick and Wick Tab: Or use a glue gun
- Newspaper: For easy cleanup

Supplies:

You can purchase soy wax online in various sizes, ranging from 1 lb. to 50 lbs. Alternatively, opt for a soy wax candle kit, which includes instructions.

Steps to Create Soy Candles:

1. Melt the Wax:
- Measure 30 to 31 oz. of wax flakes into a glass measuring cup.
- Microwave for about 5 minutes until fully melted.

2. Prepare the Wick:
- Attach your wick to the center of the jar using a wick sticker or hot glue. Choose a wick compatible with soy wax and your jar size, like a cotton coreless wick.

3. Monitor Temperature:
- Carefully remove the melted wax using pot holders. Insert the thermometer to ensure the temperature is at least 140°F.

4. Add Color:
- Mix in about 7-8 drops of dye per pound of wax for desired color intensity.

5. Cool and Add Fragrance:
- Allow the wax to cool to approximately 100°F. Then, add the fragrance to preserve its potency.

6. Secure the Wick:
- Keep the wick centered using a pencil or clothespin. Let the candle set for 24 hours to cure.

7. Final Touch:
- Trim the wick to about ¼ inch. This length helps create an efficient melt pool, as soy wax burns cooler.

Crafting your own soy candle is straightforward and rewarding. Enjoy the process and the delightful result!
