Evenings are always pleased to light the fragrant candle and, setting up under a soft blanket, enjoy the society of a good book or a cute heart of a person. Like you, I love the soft candle light and lightly its fragrance, filling the room. Recently, I make candles myself, I like that they betray my mood and state. I suggest and you make a candle in a glass with your own hands. It is very easy, and most importantly, the creation process delivers a lot of pleasure. Such candles you can decorate your evening or please friends, making them such a cute gift with your own hands.
Required materials and tools:
- Glass glass;
- wax;
- wick;
- needle or pen;
- narrow scotch;
- Essential oils (I used roses and vanilla).
Melt wax
Take the glass in which you would like to make a candle. Slim and dry it. To understand what amount of wax we need to melt, pour it into a glass. Now pour this amount into the capacitance for the molding. Preheat the wax on the water bath, carefully bring it to a boil. Make a water bath for the casting wax is very easy. You will need another container, slightly wider than that in which you have already fallen asleep. Pour into the wide capacity of water until the middle, place the bucket with wax in it and put it all on a slow fire.
Add essential oils
As soon as the wax began to boil, add a few drops of essential oil into it. I used 10 drops of oil for each candle. Naturally, you optionally use the essential oils of roses and vanilla, like me. You are free to choose any other smell, your beloved. Your candle in a glass should display your individuality, that's how I think.

This step needs to be carried out while our wax is heated. Otherwise, we will not have time to pour it into a glass. So, take your wick. Put it on the bottom of the bottom of the glass. At the top on the glass, put the knitting knitting knitting knit or a pen around which the other end of the phytylka. Try to secure so that the wick is slightly stretching and is equidistant from the walls of the glass. That is, try to mark it in the center. Fix the wick on the specialty can be scotch, like me, or just a nodel.
We form a candle
Take hot wax and quickly pour it into a glass. Put the candle to cool for several hours, and better - leave for the whole night. If the wax in the middle formed a depression - do not worry. Melt some more granular wax and pour the resulting depression. Continue to pour until, cooling, wax does not form a flat surface. When the wax freezes, cut the extra piece of wick and remove the needles from the glass. Your candle in a glass made by your own hands is now ready to use. Enjoy her warm light and beloved aroma!
