Releasing Blue Teddy Bear Candle from its Cave aka Mold - Cute Valentine

Yes, It wasn't an easy job to release this cute bear from its cave. Now Imagine how much time, determination and effort it takes to make just one candle. From choosing a soy wax, and fragrances, then melting wax and poring it into a mold, let it cool down.⏰ When it is ready - take it out of the mold ( 🤪), then decorate it.

Wait how did u hold the wick to have the metal base flat in wax 😂

In this case I inserted the metal base after the candle was ready: the candle had a little dip on the bottom which gave me a chance to insert the metal holder and pour a little bit of wax into it.

What wick did you use for this?

[@theartofpaintingcandles]

Hi, I use 3mm cotton wick, got it on amazon, I do pre-coat my wicks with wax before placing them in.

Hi! Did you put a hole in the bear mold for the wick?

[@theartofpaintingcandles]

Hi, yes I made a hole in the mold for the wick.

Hi, Thank you for your question. Appearance of dipping/hole depends on what kind of wax you are using. Pure soy wax, from my experience, often gives a dipping after cooling (for many reasons). To avoid it I use mix of soy wax and paraffin - 70/30% (sometimes more - depends on the candle's shape). Most of times the mixing helps. But, when dipping is formed anyways, - just add more wax and level it, adding the metal round wick holder to the wick during the final leveling. Hope it helps :)
