Thank you so much for watching my video!!! What's your favorite candle scent? What craft kits have you tried?

ugh, sleep issues are the worst. but making candles to deal with it is cool! seems like that nice kind of productivity where you only have to think about one thing at a time

[@shainak]

Yeah that’s fair! Sometimes when I can’t sleep doing a single activity is nice

[@samthesnail]

Great video! You've definitely inspired me to look into better options for yarn shopping than Michaels lol (and also possibly to try candle making)

[@shainak]

Oh I’m so glad to hear it! Thank you! If you do try candle making pleeeaaaase send me a pic of what you make!
Also indie yarn stores are the ones I find most commonly where I’ve lived/visited so hopefully 🤞🏻🤞🏻 you have options!!

Lovely video! I made candles when I was very young. Judy Elias taught me. She used a technique with ice to make cool holes. Also, we did multiple layers with different colors and maybe used milk cartons and took them off after, so no jar (and maybe messy when burning if not careful).

[@shainak]

Wow that’s so cool!!!! What did the ice candles look like?

[@mayahenry2552]

wax not only comes off, but it's also edible. next video idea: shaina eats all of the candles she made. I'd watch it.

🤣🤣🤣

You should start filming all of your videos at 4am.

[@shainak]

With how my sleep’s been this week I may have to resort to that 🤣🤣🤣

That's a really poorly thrown together candle making kit from Michaels. Wow!

[@shainak]

I know, right?! Such a waste of time and money! At least the indie kit was great!
