I tried this (from a different tutorial) the candles don't burn and there is a risk of the cup going on fire in the microwave - mine have brown scorch marks on them 😳
I was not sure a 10 year old TH-cam video will have such a good quality like this is better than the today's videos on TH-cam which have really not sensible Meme every 2 second❤ love this video
You didn't blow it out at the end, they don't work. They don't stay lit. Rob from Man vs. Pin did this and they don't work. Don't lie to your fans and have them try to do all of this when it just doesn't work.
ForeverFalls243 Honestly I blew it out (or waved my hands) to get that footage. Promise. I did not lie. But, I also didn't further test the candle, because I wanted to keep it for decor. Trust me, when I knowingly fail at or mess up a project I let my viewers know. Hence the Pinterest Fail videos I have (& I document my mess-ups in various tutorials). :)
Alrighty well, I believe this doesn't work only for the fact that the waxes are different types. Don't get me wrong I love you and your channel I was just making sure everyone wasn't misinformed.
ForeverFalls243 Rob also didn't do them correctly and kept fucking them up, not to mention the fact that he didnt buy fresh wax, he just melted it from a candle.
I saw another video of candle making and they said not to use crayons because it clogs up the wick and it'll stop burning. Do you find that that happens or does it burn just fine? Cause I wanna make some of these.
Pls pls answer! :) what if I don't have a microwave. Can I use a stove to melt it? Using a pot or no? Pls answer me and my friends are doing a chemistry project :) x thx love
As far as I know they do in maine. If your kids have new crayons. then i would & will be making candles from the broken used up ones. You are right though.
I made this today, and it's in the fridge setting right now. I used silver in all 5 colors. I advise that you should drip the different color wax down the side for a really cool effect.
dt LO It is only certain types of paper that will catch fire if heated long enough. Wax paper, parchment, cooking bags and paper plates are safe. However, when you have a stack of papers it is possible for them to ignite. Also, if the paper is crumpled into a tight ball it may ignite, whereas a loosely crumpled ball won't. I looked up the info after i asked the question. But thanx for replies
it works better if you use an old glass mason jar or glass cup because they help the wax to melt faster and you can clean them easily so you don't have to throw it away after you use it. just dont put it in cold water when you finish using it... the jar will crack... and pick it up with an oven mitt, it tends to get hot
Followed the instructions perfectly, but end result was my 8 year old daughter in tears ... I spent $40 to make 4 candles in 4 hours that looked nothing like your result. She and I were so disappointed as we followed video instructions to the "T". I'd advise do more research on wax temperature and incremental layering. Crayons are not meant to be used as candles as they melt at a different temperature this results in each layer melting into the previous layer. Finally, crayons burn much much faster ... so don't expect to burn a crayon candle as instructed in this video.
What kind of wax did you use? We did this craft in high school many years ago with crayons and straight paraffin wax. Turned out just like this vid. (except we used a liquid scent)
That's so horrible I used mostly things from my house. We put it in the oven on 250 F and put real candle sticks in it. Maybe that made a difference. I think it was the paraffin that did the trick.
Thank you so much Sarah! I love these candles I've made like 10 of them😂 they are so fun to make and really worth the while!!!! You're a great inspiration! 😉
So helpful. lol I had a black out on sunday and I had all the ingredients so I made it. I had a fire stove which you could light with matches and I welted it with that. Very helpful!
i love your videos i make all my braclets from your videos that is how i know how to make them. and when i need help making a braclet i look it up under socraftastic
Hey, @SoCraftastic. This video was excellent and gave me an idea for my next project for Christmas and Hanukkah presents. I always make my Christmas gifts and this video was perfect.
That's a really good tip for making striped candles. It must be a lot faster melting the different wax colors in small containers in the microwave than melting each color separately on the stove (like I did). I'll try your way if I make recycled candles again.
EXCELLENT IDEA FOR THE COLOR OF THE CANDLES, MY KIDS AND I ARE WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT TO WHAT TO USE AND NOW I KNOW.... THANK YOU VERY MUCH.. GREAT VIDEO..;0
I've never thought about crayons. But definitely I will try. But I really want to know if you can upload a video on how to make those kind of candles that smell so great and they are relaxing. Please
I have never thought that making candles would be so easy
It not easy as u think
Is this what you mean as easy , for me easy is just to keep your candle how it is or just put some colour on it
Is not as easy as it looks
Can use use crayons for candle wax. And can you use yarn or a shoe string for the wick ??
watching this at the end of 2019 is a throwback to my childhood and i wanna cry
Me but in 2024
Omg this randomly popped in my head that I wanted to do this. And I was already watching your videos! What a throwbackkk
Now I know exactly what to do with all my son's old crayons
😂😂😂
Lmao
Ikr!! 😂🤣🤣🤣

Ahh comments 7 years ago
i am totally doing this!!! I am so addicted to candles!
my fave video was 10 years ago already, i miss u sarahhhh
I have a lot of old crayons. This video inspired me. Thanks for sharing. Shared it
I'm moving and I found soooo many crayons from when I was little and now I have a fun weekend project to do this summer. Thanks!
OMG IT LOOKS SO COOL WHEN IT'S LITTT
LOL
When you were mixing the silver wax, I was so mesmerized... 😍😍😍
omg you helped my sister so much she brought a whole bunch of supplies on Amazon and now she has her own business
I haven’t seen you in SOOO long you are literally my childhood
Such a cool idea! Thank you :)
Oh my gosh! that is the most easiest way I've ever seen how to make candles! SO trying this!!!!
My grandsons will love doing this for gifts.
Yes! I got all the materials, I'm getting off my butt and doings this right now. Thanks for the idea
That is so cool. Oh guys it's probably best to use Crayola branded crayons since they're nontoxic, plus they give you a bigger color selection
just out of curiosity do you have to use the wax?
I love the little perler bead pac-man things they are soooo cute
I put scents in mine, so they smell pretty good. :)
How to put scent?
The candles look realistic:)
Your candels are sooo cute Sarah!! And you are such an amaizing crafter!! I absolutley love your videos!! #congrats.from.romania!!! :-*
This is my favorite video to watch for crayon candle videos.
I love my new candle we had a black out and my candle was really helpful
You are so awesome I watch every video you make and now I know what to do with my crayons
I tried this (from a different tutorial) the candles don't burn and there is a risk of the cup going on fire in the microwave - mine have brown scorch marks on them 😳
You should like a catastrophe lol
ahh coming back to this video in a while this was the first socraftastic video i ever watched andsubbed the sec it was done
I hear these things don't burn very well? Im dying to try this tho lol. Love the vid
I was not sure a 10 year old TH-cam video will have such a good quality like this is better than the today's videos on TH-cam which have really not sensible Meme every 2 second❤ love this video

Desteny Chantalle agree to you
Super cool
I like the colours you have chosen
can you use any crayons do the have to be crayola? x
Yes any crayons would give the same results and you don't have to use whole crayon for such small amount of wax just a bit of crayon shaving would do.
This is my favorite video from you!!! I can't stop watching it!!!!
I saw another video of candle making and they said not to use crayons because it clogs up the wick and it'll stop burning. Do you find that that happens or does it burn just fine? Cause I wanna make some of these.
Probably the crayon because of the higher oil content. Wax burns slower
I made this and the wick stopped burning because of the crayons
Your imagination is fabulous
Pls pls answer! :) what if I don't have a microwave. Can I use a stove to melt it? Using a pot or no? Pls answer me and my friends are doing a chemistry project :) x thx love
Of course u can melt everything on the stove top. It would just take longer to melt than the microwave
So cool! First video I watched by so craftastic
Crayons are not ideal for candle making they clog the wick, use colors
mean't for candles.
chile this video looks so aesthetic
so cool BUT wEre Did You gEt tHe waX frOm
The internet
The gray is nice
She said *soo perrtty*
No but seriously, very helpful thx
OMG! OMG! THIS IS SOOOO COOL! THANK YOU SO CRAFTASTIC!
Umm don't crayons cost more than candles?
As far as I know they do in maine. If your kids have new crayons. then i would & will be making candles from the broken used up ones. You are right though.
I got crayons for free at my bfs house lol
Incredible. That was just fantastic.
Do you have to use caryola crayons or any other crayons
I made this today, and it's in the fridge setting right now. I used silver in all 5 colors. I advise that you should drip the different color wax down the side for a really cool effect.
Savannah Seaheart You can get wax at eBay and Amazon. Hope I helped! :)
Savannah Seaheart sorry, I was talking to Kandee Jane about where to find wax... I replied to the wrong person :)
Whats with club penguin music?
I loved thi video when I was 12! I thought it'd be buried in youtube by now, so nostalgic
sorry i had to dislike only because i followed the exact steps but my microwave exploded
lol
RealLifeBeauty23 Sorry for your loss
Did u use microwaveable wax ?
Did you microwave the metal piece of the candle wick?
Ooof
Awesome video!!
How come the paper cups not catching fire in the microwave?
Because, you can heat food on paper plates. :)
While this is true after a few minutes paper does tend to catch fire.
If paper catches fire in your microwave then I would get a new
microwave!
dt LO It is only certain types of paper that will catch fire if heated long enough.
Wax paper, parchment, cooking bags and paper plates are safe.

That's a neat idea, it's also quick and easy!
Does the candles
Work or not?

Gerda van der Berg hjj

I feel sorry for your 8 year old daughter. You are right, there's a better way to do this,
Probobly didnt do it right
That's so horrible I used mostly things from my house. We put it in the oven on 250 F and put real candle sticks in it. Maybe that made a difference. I think it was the paraffin that did the trick.
i dont think that was it my candles didnt work because of the wick i used mine that didnt work were Yaley wire wicks
My mom would live this! She loves the smell of crayons
That probably smells like shit. Burnt crayons smell bad.
Truly Infamous and adds some nice toxins to your air as well. Use beeswax instead.
You're videos are seriously fantastic! Thank you for these awesome ideas!
.....ur color combinations were terrible
love to; everything you’re* you’re grammars
Bruh bruh bruh no it’s your not you’re
Bruh bruh bruh OMG you say that as you also have bad grammar. It's *your* not *you're*
