Make a candle

“February was candle making and I quickly realized… making one good candle is a lot more involved than I expected. I made my first candle… And immediately learned a few things: * I didn’t fill it all the way * I got a huge sinkhole in the middle (whoops) * My wick wasn’t perfectly centered Cue emergency Google search.”

“First, that candle making takes a lot of practice. If you start a candle business but you've never made a candle, you need a lot of determination and patience to get there. I didn't know how many different types of waxes, wicks, jars, lids, labels, styles, and scents were out there in the world. I bought way too many things I didn't need and cried many a tear. I finally figured it out, but not without gaining BIG respect to my fellow hand-pouring candle makers.”
