Christmas comfort
For starters, let's figure it out how to make the fastest and simple version of the creation of candles.
To work, take the molds (can be made of rubber, plastics, metal or glass), paraffin or wax, wick. We also need metal container, tweezers, wood stick, passation, foil, pigments.
We start: I break the material on the pieces, from which we will make a candle, we will use it with a fittille and fold into the ass. Then the metal container is then discussed, so that a certain recess to the paraffin leakage is obtained. At the bottom we make a wick hole, and then lubricate the candle with vegetable oil. If you have chosen wax crayons as a dye, then at this stage, wipe them on the grater. We make a water bath: heat into a saucepan with water and put the jar in which the material melted.
We mean wick. Then add a dye to our paraffin. Mix the ingredients so that they do not boil. Now you need to do the installation of the wick: tie a loop on a gentle part of the tank with top with a clothespin. The length of the wick should be 1 cm more than the height of the candle. Fill in the form of paraffin. You can experiment with flowers, then it turns out a multi-layer candle.
We are waiting for the paraffin cool. Total will have to wait about 12 hours. Cut off the bottom tail of the wick, pull out a candle from the container.

Aromatic candle
The process of creating aromatic candles is almost the same, but is slightly different, it can be seen in the photo. First, we use soy wax flakes instead of paraffin. And we also need aromatic oil. During the dams of the flakes, it is necessary to add a couple of drops of aromatic oil.
On the candle itself you can now apply different decor items. Let's look at what options for decorations exist.
You can decorate a candle with coffee beans: they can be added to the paraffin itself or stick to the already finished candle with the process of fooling the grain into paraffin.
The original idea will decorate the candle with pieces of ice. To do this, you will need to crumble the ice and add to the heated paraffin. The result will pleasantly surprise you, because the candle surface resembles the real snow.
One of the items of jewelry can post the container. Using unusual cups, glasses, shells, jars, orange zest, you are clearly surprised by all guests.
During the melting of paraffin, you can put on the bottom of the shell or glass pebbles. Such a composition looks very beautiful!
Also, candles can be decorated with napkins, making decoupage. They will serve beautiful candle stencils.
Another decoration option can serve dry fruits and cinnamon.
Well, the bright decorations themselves are sequins.
