Hi Jennifer, no I haven't found it to do that on my fabric sofa. The essential oil isn't a true 'oil' and I always wipe the spot a few time with a sponge and fresh water to remove the soap and 'rinse'.

Hi Linda, are the wicks 8 inches in length or made for a candle container with a diameter of 8 inches (which is often how they're sold, although that would be a rather large container)? Yes, you can trim the wicks (after the candle has been poured and set). I hope you enjoy your candle making!

You're welcome, thank you for watching!

Welcome! 🌸 it's hard to say without knowing the jar's capacity but I would recommend purchasing around 300g (10 ounces) of soy wax flakes from a craft store and then use the jar to scoop three jars full of dry flakes. Then weigh this amount for future reference. Experiment until you find the right amount and keep another jar ready for surplus melted wax.

@@nikandbdog yes the weight should remain the same, but take into consideration the weight of the essential oils you add, and check the measurement of the tins isn't fluid ounces which is different to dry ounces 🌸

I hope you enjoy making your own candles

Hi Gloria! I haven't tried wooden wicks yet but I want to because I think they look so nice! I will have to get back to you with anything I learn about that. In the meantime a I found this information online "Always keep your wood wick trimmed to (1/8 to 1/4) of an inch to ensure optimal burn time and flame height. Before relighting your candle, simply clip or pinch the burned portion of the wick, taking care not to get any ash into the wax. Only trim wicks on a thoroughly cooled candle."

They are so much cheaper to make yourself aren't they!? Plus it's a fun activity to do. Thanks for commenting!

Thanks Kim it's comments like yours that inspire me to make more videos :)

Thank you!

Thank you for commenting, your feedback is appreciated so we can make our videos even better in the future

You're welcome, thank you for watching!

I recommend calculating 6-7 per cent of the wax weight for a heavy scent, or just a few drops for a lighter scent 🌸

Thank you! 😊

Hi 👋 I didn't show the full amount on the video. If you click through to the blog in the description you'll find the information about dilution ratios

Thank you

Hi Juliana. I have seen other fragrance blend oils that are called natural, but you would have to read further into it to check they are non toxic.

@@pineapplefarmhouse6873 thanks, dear! Best wishes from Brazil 🇧🇷

Hi Erica! I used 130 g soy wax and about 2.5 ml essential oil for a lightly scented candle, but you could add up to 7% off the wax weight in oil depending on your preference.

That's lovely of you to say, thank you!

Thank you Carolina!

As a beginner, that's really encouraging feedback, thank you!

Thanks Joanne!

Yes, I agree that would look nice! Thanks for watching

Thanks for sharing your information, and watching the video!

If the right wick (smaller wick) and container (a more narrow form) is used it shouldn’t be a problem…just use essential oils with higher flash points (over 150F) and more stronger scents.

Thanks for the feedback Becky. I agree and plan to test some supplies available on Amazon to be able to share universal links

Thank you for watching!

Thank you Lucy-Ann, happy candle making!

I hope you get a chance to try the recipe!
