My favorite thing about this tutorial was how you explained why you made every decision that you did 🥰
Thank you
Yes I agree great video!!
How to creat the wax
Agreed! Best candle making tutorial on youtube for this reason
Oh yeah what is the "pouring temperature" ill just take a wild guess
Just used this to make three candles to surprise my wife when she gets home from a business trip; this guide was absolutely first rate, super accessible, non-pretentious, informative, and very easy to follow.
12/10 stars.
Thanks so much.
OMG. you’re a good partner
Um okay what a thoughtful partner, that is so cute! ❤️❤️
Awww :)
How did your wife like them?
@@TheDownables Very much. Not so much for the quality but more for the effort. The quality was more lacking because these were some of the first candles I made, so not my best work. In the time since I've improved the craft considerably and have developed a finer sense of smell for mixing and matching scents, for wick placement in candles, and for overall best practices. Nothing educates like experience.
Okay. I'm honestly just here because I want to make something I can put my whole soul into, to make and sell over and over again. Anyone else?
Me too
Same
Look into beekeeping in that case. Most people won't buy a candle but everyone needs honey/sugar. Bees also produce beeswax and you can farm bees within city limits
@@corneliusc8952 Thank you for the tip and I will. I've had some success with candles, but beekeeping would make sense also, as I love gardening; so it would just be the extra addition. I have 8 fruit trees so far.
Me always! But somehow it never happens.
Never been much of a crafter, but i recently got hooked on candles and after spending a lot of money buying 12 and 14 dollar candles i thought i better see what's available. I see some money saving crafting in my future.
This quarantine is making me do things like puzzles and darts and baking
Paper mache, a bit of ballet and chess
Pottery and ventriloquy, and Now Candle making!! 👌🏼
Hahaha its like we are finding out all the possible things we can get interested in, in a couple of months, which would otherwise have taken a lifetime or beyond 😁
P.s you can check out homemade soap making next 😂
mine is netflix... just.. netflix.😃✌🏻
This comment is brilliant
I understand this reference :)
Haha some great ideas there Arvin :)
I am going to attempt making a candle for the first time ever and I am so glad I saw this video as it gave me so many important tips! Thank you for this!!
Did you use tape in the bottom of the wick??
how'd it go?
Thank you for a very clear and understandable tutorial. I appreciate it that you gave clear explanations as to WHY you did things a certain way. Not all content creators take the time to do that.
I love this tutorial! It was so concise and helpful. I love making gifts - paintings, scrapbooks, cards, jewellery but for some reason was never game enough to try candles. Thanks for the tips!
Man this was so awesome. You really did make this beginner friendly
Nigeria McDaniels I try to do my best. Thank you for watching
My ffffrerryhnpp milk I k
@@sherivegasartist can u pls tell me that materials names pls
Your voice is not annoying, it's quite pleasant, and I thoroughly enjoyed your video!
One of the best explanations I've found so far, so thank you. Couple questions 1# what's the temp for pouring ideally using soy/soy and coconut wax?
2# how does the decorations handle the heat of the wax and do they catch a light?
Thanks for sharing.
Well
...
@@scottg1312 well…
So…
About that…
Um...
Thank you so much! Your video has more information than I’ve found in years of candle making! Beautiful. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge!!
Sheri:uses a heat gun
Me:ok, blow dryer????
LMAOO
Lmfao I just hollered, I was thinking the same
Same, or use the microwave
@@candlecapital6790 wouldn't a microwave melt it again?
Lmfaoooo😂 I almost ordered a heat gun
I love the candle. Your choice of bowl, the starfish, and petals, as well as the wax are delightful. You're amazing and so kind to share your talent and process and technique! You're the star!!!!! 🤩❤💯👍
Thank you so much for all the tips and reasons why you're doing things a certain way~ I suddenly got the urge to try my hand at candle making, and this helps me feel more comfortable starting up!
It’s so much fun once you get started
Another important thing I would say is to pour wax in heat proof cup ,bowl or any decorative tub ,glass ;) definitely don’t use plastic tragedies do happen when people don’t use heat proof stuff 😰😱😭
This is glorious, I've been looking for "candle making supplies" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got excellent success with it.
What about an an enamel pot is it safe I've never tried making a candle
Can we use earthen pots to pour wax in?
@@oreobenavidez953 I would assume it should be fine if I understand it right (being from different country )🤔😅 as normally enamel cookware is safe for cooking so yes I would say it’s worth a go :)
I love your voice, so soothing, and your steps seem simple and easy to follow. I want to do this as a hobby! Thank you!
Thank you for this! I’m 13 and I wanna start making and selling candles so I can save up for things I want. This was super helpful!
Good luck 🤞🏻 😊
I have just established my relationship and my ex-wife is back for me and we are living happily like never before

I love that you EXPLAIN why you’re doing something it helps understand alotttt
Hello from Mexico! Your video is great, it has small details that seem very important and others don’t mention this, thank you for your time and dedication. I’d love to see a video for diy soaps.
Glad I checked out this video instead of just looking up some basic instructions. Wouldn’t have thought of heating the bowl or letting the wax cool slightly before pouring. Thank you!
happy to help
This is such a great tutorial! I'd love to see more crafting content, especially if you decide to do more candles!
Excellent tutorial. I'm 70 yrs. young and have never made a candle in my life. I will now! Thanks! Sheri
You did this so effortlessly, gave me the hope I need! Thank you beautiful candle
Great video I’m about to start my own soap and candle business and this video was A LOT OF HELP 🙌🏾‼️

Making candles for everyone for Xmas! So excited. I asked everyone about their favorite scents!

I just saw the video and make rhe candles. I'm waiting for them to solid, but I can't wait to thank you for the really useful tip on how to measure the wax. I did as you say, and I got two equally perfect size candles. Thank you very much!

Thank you 😊
I’m new to candle making. I would love to see a comparison between wax types and a video on what fragrances work best with which wax.
Oh that’s a great idea
This is so wholesome,Keep Growing....
Really useful. What temperature do you wait for the wax to cool to before you pour it in? X
Thank you for making this video and hope you get better soon. 🧡
My goodness! You’re such a great teacher , thank you very much ♥️
That's a nice and straight forward explanation. Thanks for your video
I can't wait to try! :) What temperature is your pouring temperature?
I love you girl, I have watched 100 of videos and they were suck’s. Thank you for thinking of us, and be the best teacher ever. We all love it 😍. I will keep watching your video and follow you on Instagram.
Never annoying! Always a pleasure beautiful!!😘

Considering starting a candle business and this video will be my starting point😊thank you
Her: A heat gun-
Me: Hairdryer
I forgot I had this comment, ps I gave up 😔☀️
two different things....Heat gun can produce much higher temps
@@ThePowerfulMach5 It was a joke 😂
What kinda hairdryer are you using damn
@@dolphinman9896 The good sort 😂
thats exactly what i am using with mine also😂
Clear and concise! Excellent job
Thank you so much for this video, i've been interested in candles recently and i really wanted to learn, your video will help me a lot to distract myself and make new ideas during this quarentine, you explain everything so well and that makes it easier. You are cheering me to do this.

I'm so happy I found your channel I love the details that you give as well as the extra tips thank you so much! 😘
That was such a wonderful tutorial. I have never made candles before but your instructions were beautifully presented i am definitely going to give it ago. Thankyou 😊👍🏻
You’re so cute sis !!! Thanks for the tips 😊💜
Just wonderful, I've been looking for "melting soy wax candle making" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got cool results with it.
Lovely candle and thank you so much for the useful tips .. ❤️ from India 🇮🇳
Love ur sick voice and thank u for sharing ,,,I'm on it like a car bonit.
I just did my first candle after watching this video and is good !! Im really surprised and excited 😍😍
That’s so great to hear
You mentioned letting the wax cool down a bit before pouring, but you didn't say to what temperature. Could you let us know? Thanks!
Allow it to cool down to 130*-140* - this temp works best for soy or parasoy.
@@beaustique9712 Thanks!
@@beaustique9712 Celcius or Farenheit? I've made the mistake of assuming people are talking about celcius before, and let me tell you, my cake did not turn out great..
Room temperature

You are absolutely gorgeous.. natural beauty at it’s finest. Hope you feel better
This is my new favorite channel!
Thankyou for taking the time to show this
Hello! Love the video! Thanks for explaining into detail & showing after pics. Quick question. Is it safe to add those kind of decor? It won’t like catch on fire? Or do you remove the sea shell at a particular time the candle is burning? Would also like to add particular food items, such as candy corn, coffee beans, or cinnamon sticks.
Thank you
Enjoyed your video, and the clear instructions, including the 'why'. Bowl is a great idea, I think ill look for some with the pattern/design on the exterior, and maybe use 3 wicks.
This was so nice! Beautiful gift, and simple, clear instructions. Thank you!!
This was really helpful because I’ve bin looking for candle making videos and thus was the best one
Thank you! Can you talk a little about the scents/oils you use? Do you have a favorite brand? Can it just be a store bought oil?
I never thought it was that easy, you have good tips
I've been wanting to make candles for a while and this is definitely helpful!
I fell in love with your channel already ❤
Thanks for the video! quick question.. Do the dried petals burn well? or do they create a burning smell? thanks xx
The wax cover them and they don’t burn. But it’s opinion to add them or not
Thank you for making this. Found a new hobby since my husband love candles. Now I can make my own for him.😄
This was great, thank you!
Wow this was so easy to follow. Thank you
Great video! Would a hair dryer work instead of a heat gun? Also, how do you calculate the amount of fragrance? Many thanks for the instructions!
I would love to know!
I loved the video! I'm just finishing making a valentines day candle for my gf from this video!
That’s so nice 👍
Very beautiful, thanks for the tips.😊🌺
This was great, I been tryin to find out about "tips candle making" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got cool results with it.
Loved the easy, detailed way you teach. We will let you know how our candles turn out! Thank you
How do you know which temperature to boil the wax? How long to let the wax cool before pouring? What is the ratio of fragrance to add?
Glad I found this video very informative and fun to watch I can't wait to really get into candle making I just got to get the space in my house first LOL.
sheri vegas, how to measure the fragrance? And what kind of fragrances are you using? Pure essential oils or fragrances prepared specifically for candles? Thanks in advance.
Wow, thanks,@Jordan Freeman, I tried to do some research but nothing came out. Very kind of you.
She wrote in an other persons comments: 100% pure oil
@@ariiv3704 Thanks.
Jye Price do you mean 6-10% of the amount of wax? So eg if I use 100 grams of wax I should use max 10g of fragrance?? Just to be simple lol ty
Love the video very informative. I got that you heat the wax up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit then add your fragrance but maybe I missed it what temperature was the pouring temp.. thank you keep up the great work
Thank you! This was really helpful. So far I melted the wax in a big glass jar itself and always had that dipping and didn't know what was the problem. The wax is too hot! So I will pour the wax into the glass jar in the future to avoid that! Awesome! 🤍🕯
Hi there! Loved the video & great tips! What would be the ideal temperature to cool the wax before pouring into the jar/bowl?
And what is the temperature that the wax should be heated to?
Amazing!!! Lovely voice. Great tutorial

As I plan on making candles with my kids, this video was very very helpful. Thanx for sharing
this is beautiful! I have a question, what is the perfect pouring temperature?
I believe about 130°
Are the temps listed in the video and in the comments degrees C or F?
Angelia Pisces SunMoon Shes Australian so she would be using Celsius
Beautiful work, peaceful hobby. Nice job! Thanks for the video
Thank you for this!! 😼💕
Ok I believe I can do this. I will make my first attempt at making a candle this weekend 🚀
Love the video! Can you share the online calculator you mentioned for determining required wicks?
