Best time ever to relax and watch Kelly Barlow.
Why thank you Nancy ☀️
How to bundle for me to bundle for
My understanding is the heat and speed that you melt the candle. If you melt you at a lower temp for a longer time you wont get that crack or sinkhole….I usually melt mine on the stove in a pot with boiling water on a low temp…i dont have any issues once they solidify..hope that helps
Oh thanks!!! I'm going to try this method. Mine always crack or sink. So glad you posted this❤️❤️❤️
Do you keep the water boiling or at a low simmer? And are you putting the jars in before (when you first put the pot on the stovetop) or after the water comes to boil?
@@chickeegombert6063 I place the jars in as soon as I put the pot on the stove..I leave it on low to simmer the entire time until the wax has fully melted.. I just go around doing other things in the house…this can take about an hour. Not been in a hurry helps the wax so that later when it cools you have no issues. Just make sure you have enough water. I use a tall pot that’s taller than those jars but I’ve also used a regular pot used for making pasta.
@@alisambrano you’re welcome! I make candles a lot from fall to Christmas so I’ve experimented a ton! But if it does sink and you have one of those candle warmers I’ve found that is a great way to correct it as well. Have fun!
@@robertadejean3081 I am so happy that I read these comments! Great ideas!
Great idea! Helpful hint, if you feed the wick though a straw, you can more easily attach it to the bottom of whatever container you're using.
I'm a candle maker. I sell them. You don't need to heat the jars as some have said, but heating the wax to 175 degrees and then pouring it at 150 degrees is essential. I rarely get the sinkhole or uneven tops this way. Also, allowing them to cool in spot that is not near a vent, fan, etc so that they don't cool and set too quickly will also help!
Dear Melissa please tell me when I make candles from reused wX it will not burn properly in between it stops burning why what is the reason please help to make good burning candles thank u
If you’re a candle maker, you know never to do any of this.
@@sorayashahi if she does it for a living, who are you to say otherwise?
@@lisapope3593 I’ve been making candles and selling for over 9 years.
@@sorayashahi hi ..i just browse and watch and watch until i reached this channel and read comments.....please create a channel of your skills too, i am interested to watch how you do them..i am newbie and gather infos and help....i am thinking of master these and sell too😊
Thank you🌹
The secret to no holes or cracks in your candles is to to preheat the jars with your heat gun and to let the wax cool just slightly before you pour them into the jars over the wicks.
I get excited when she pops up. Because I know it's something fun.
While the vinyl isn't dollar tree, if you have a cricket it's cheaper than using Dollar Tree stickers. Heck even if you have her send it to you, it's still cheaper, unless you can find something you like that works for all three jars in one sticker packet.
I just bought some of these jars yesterday at dollar tree, my son said why? I said, "I'm sure I'll find a Kelly Barlow video to give me inspiration" now I'm trying to convince him I'm psychic😂😂😂😂 I can't wait to do this!!
BTW, I have the same issue with the cracks and sinkholes.
The heat gun really is the quickest way to deal with sinkholes. If you're wanting to be a purist (and who has time for that?) you can either warm up your jars before pouring your wax into them. Alternatively, you can wait until your wax cools off significantly, between 125-135 degrees. As you've probably guessed sinkholes are caused by the hot wax drying faster on the outside of the candle than the inside. Also, even if there doesn't appear to be a sinkhole you should give all your candles a poke with a skewer to check, sometimes there is one lurking just beneath the surface.
thanks for all the tips!!!!
Thank you for sharing, this was really helpful ☺.
Great tips! You must be a candlemaker
@@jenniferggreer457 q
I learned the same thing. I heat up jars so the candle cures slower.
The candles look professional like something I’ve seen in a store. Very nice DIY.
OMG, this is one of the best projects, that I have seen you do!!! I am so flabbergasted!!! WOW!!!
Who doesn't love candles as a gift?!..indeed, who doesn't love making candles to give as gifts(..and maybe keep a few back for ourselves!)?! These turned out beautifully..of course!!
Your best DIY yet in my opinion. That’s because before you even showed it I am already doing the same. I have been been a fan of scented candle use for sometime since the pandemic so I started buying the brands from Walmart. At the same time I started exploring the ways could minimize my candle expenditures by watching TH-camrs make candles. Then I figured out accidentally how to melt candles both scented and unscented and not to start from scratch like melting waxes, and that when I was able to make candles like the one you’ve shown. Oh my! I was beyond impressed at my discovery. Started melting leftovers from all my candle glasses and mixed matched them until I did exactly what you did. I bought the tall glass candles and the scented melts and votives and mixed them too. Then I just bought a candle kit at Amazon. The rest is history. and here you are showing this trade secret so called lol thats probably going to dent the profit of some candle sellers. LOL! I found that buying a set of tall tapered unscented long life candles on Amazon was my thing as my baseline candle for making the scented because they do last longer than the ones on Dollar Tree, thereby saving more money. Thank you for this video. Much appreciated.
One thing more for smaller candle glass holders like the votive size I just use my coffee hot plate and it works like a charm. No need to use my oven. For the taller ones I use my coffee cup warming plate. Both works and it takes like 15 minutes then the candle is liquid. Just my little tip in case someone thinks the meting procedure is too cumbersome with ovens or double boiling. just make sure you dont walk too far away from it.
I LOVED THE CANDLE MELTS THAT IS AWSOME😍😍😍😍😍😍
Really great idea! If I may, I would like to make a suggestion: when adding the fragrance color wax cubes…carefully tilt the tall candle glass slightly and add the add cubes. By holding with the silicone holders you should have a good hold and the cubes will slide down and not splash your hands. Safety observation. :)
Thats what I did. No splashing.
After watching this I got creative. I got some really cute Christmas stemware at Goodwill for .50 cents. I’m going to make candles out of them. When I looked closely, there was very small painted labels below the holly and berry designs on them. “Arby’s Christmas Collection 1987”. I was going to cover it with ribbon and changed my mind. They’re RETRO!!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial. Candles make great gifts! Your ideas are darling!!!
That's an amazing and adorable idea too keep them as is. ARBY'S AND ALL!! good on ya mate !
Wow I just had flashback to my younger days of melting paraffin wax from the feed store and using old milk cartons, cans, etc. We used crayons and food coloring. I don’t remember what we did for scent. I think I’m going to like this method even better. Thanx for sharing!
Love this !!!!
I love when you make candles. These make quick budget friendly gifts. Candles make great gifts for anyone. TFS
To avoid holes, cracks, etc... The glass jars need to be near the temperature of the wax. Once poured walk away until the next day.
Definitely heat the glass jars before filling....use a heat gun...
@@js4512 to avoid cracks and holes do not use the double boiler method put the wax melting pot directly on the eye on a low temperature.
I’m not into how pretty - Just want smell good candles that works
Kelly, amazing! I now have ideas for Christmas and it's only June lol. I showed my husband and he said "she does beautiful work" Won't he be surprised if I can replicate them! I can't wait to try...off to the Dollar Tree tomorrow. I will now have to get my Cricut out of the box. Thank you so much!!! Now you will have to give us a project with the empty tall candle glass.
I love making candles and giving them as a gift in the gift baskets I make.
Yes Barbara me to I also make gift baskets
You sound anxious about the video don’t be worried I love your videos
I want to thank you so much for making this video. I now can do this for myself even with the leftover since that I have in candles that have burned down
I'm always looking for inexpensive presents. You are my answer in so many ways. Thank you!
I absolutely love the candles, what a great idea in using the melts for color and aroma! Thank you for sharing this ideas! The candles are gorgeous!💕😊🌸
This is a perfect craft for Christmas! I have a big family and I can make a lot of these for very little money. Also side note: when I was little I used to think that my mom’s candle snuffer was a broken bell with a stick attached to it. I never knew until I was 21 what it was actually for😂
I thought the same thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Go on Amazon and order your items if you're going to do a large batch of candles. It would be so much cheaper. Find jars in a consignment shop. 💞
I just made a candle today! I had one that was not a good scent. So I repurposed it and made 2 candles! What a coincidence! Thanks for the cute craft!
Wow!!! I'm blown away!!! Thank you for showing how simple this is!!! 👍💝
This will be excellent for Father’s Day ! Thanks miss Kelly 💕
I have all of the stuff for candles, still use your method and it works like a charm
What beautiful gifts for someone. Love it.
I've always thought about making my own candle; now I know how by watching your video. Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely love the day Dollar Tree candles. I will try those on my down time. I live melting the wax from my partially burned candles and cresting a new candle. Thank you
I love watching Kelly create
I am so glad you did this video. I recently started making candles and I really needed the tips you gave today.
I love this idea. Thank you for helping me to create something beautiful and aromatic. 🥰
I just love this idea of the clear wax and add color
It's funny I heard complaining about the dollar tree store raising the price , you know what I will pay it. the store is my go to, I Love Dollar tree Why because I have 3 beautiful grandbabies and the joy and laughter that we share exploring different ways to be creative Well it is worth it. 👍💯💟💟💟
I watched this for information for a different project, but I LOVE these candles.
These really are soooo STINKING cute!! I just love them. I need to go to The Dollar Tree and buy some of those adorable jars. Thank You again, Kelly for sharing Your talents with Us.
As always, GOD BLESS YOU, JEFF AND YOUR WONDERFUL CHILDREN!!!
😊❤️👍🏼👋🏼😀
Absolutely loved this craft! I love candles.
I have made candles before. This is so much easier! Thank you ❤️
Simply love these candles! Thanks Kelly!
I love this!!! Can't wait to start making them for my home.
Was going to buy a candlemaking kit then i saw this. We tried this instead. Our first project came out great. Thank you for sharing this.
Yay glad to hear it🤎
Thanks for all the how-to's! I'll def. be trying these candles!
Candles look beautiful!
I love the candle melt DIY. It’s awesome !!!
Absolutely Beautiful! Purple is my favorite color, coconut is my favorite fragrance. ♥
Absolutely Wonderful IDEA!!!!
I can not wait to try this!!!!!
This is a great way to melt the wax! I make candles I always boil in a pot. Then add (oil) scents , I haven’t seen these candle jars since DT went to 1.25!
Thank you Kelly, this was very helpful. We have a new SAILOR in our family & I'm going to make candles for her. Also going to etch the glass jars...💖
When I made candles years ago I bough.t stray tea cups at a thrift store. Using a complimentary candle color . they made beautiful gifts also cute decorative bowls are an idea also.
Oh wow. I'm in shock how beautiful and easy you present this. Thanks
I am so glad I found this candle lesson. Thank you so much!
You and your family are in my prayers!
Nice job on the candles! I have made them before but using wax melts for color and fragrance is genius! Thank you!
Thanks! This is like the most non-sense DYI candle video I've found and so straight forward!
I love the colors of the candles! Thank you, Kelly!❤
She sounds like a great great grandmother. In a calming kind of way
I love these candles! They look better then store bought❤️❤️❤️
I love candles, great easy project. Thanks Kelly
Love this idea for those candles. Thank you for sharing this. Have a blessed day.
I’m so glad I found this!!!
I can’t wait to try this! Beautiful…..
So pretty, great colors for summer.
Ooh, I love this, scented candles r 1 of my favs, urs came out beautiful, pretty pastel colors....thank you
That looks so fun! Thanks for sharing your beautiful crafts with us. God bless you!
Love this idea and plan to try it very soon!! I'm a craft junkie and I'm always looking for great new ideas. This looks like a really fun craft to keep or to gift or both. Thanks again Kelly for another great craft for those of us on a budget.
Those candles are still a great deal for DIYs, whipped or not! For years I've made candles for gifts and it's gotten harder and harder to find candles to melt without paying a fortune. Plus, with those tall candles you get plenty of wick! I still like the "old-fashioned" candles made by pouring wax around crushed ice - in white they're great for a winter look!
I remember the crushed ice technique! We used to make those candles in washed out milk cartons, and after the wax hardened, we just tore the paper carton off!
Could you PLEASE explaine the crushed ice technique?? I'm truly intrigued!!!
I've been collecting old wax to make candles with my granddaughters! I was using a wax warmer. This is better! Thanks!
Those candles are so pretty. The pastel colors are amazing. 💜💗💚
Love your video. That heat gun is a life saver. I use all the time. Thanks for sharing
Love how you do your candles. I watched you do these at Christmas time
These are absolutely adorable!!!! I love this idea 💡 amazing!!!
Amazing it takes a very creative mind to come up with this I’m in the craft out and candle out of the dollar store often it never crossed my mind that I can do that thank you for sharing
Wow candles look beautiful
Making these! I am a beginner and very excited.
Okay, so now I'm off to Dollar Tree tomorrow to get some of those white candles. I want to try this! Thanks Kelly, for the video.
Love these. Thinking of them as gifts!
Love, love, LOVE!!! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent, both through your crafting and your words!) May God bless you sister!) 😉🙏❤️🔥⚓️
Love it all. Thanks. Many blessings.🙏❤
Try melting your wax at a lower temperature and see if that helps. Also, I've found that wrapping my candles with dish towels makes for a more even hardening. Wrapping the candles prevents the outside area from hardening before the middle which causes the sinkholes and cracks.
Love, love, loving this Kelly! I already have a planned trip to dollar tree this morning. Hope to get some jars, waxes and tall candles! Thanks for sharing. Will be bing watching your channel in the near future. Kitchen remodel is next 😊😉
Great easy idea for end of year teacher gifts!
These are beautiful and simple.
I ❤THIS..Thanks Kelly🎉
So "stinkin cute" ... love them!!! Great job, Kelly ♥️🤗
They are beautiful!
from me who made candles for resale. put your wick in a straw and and hold in place for drying
Very cute candles. Thank you for showing us how to make. Have a wonderful day.
Great ideas for candle 🕯 making!
I really like this idea, I'm definitely going to make some of these candles thank you.
Thanks for sharing i'm going to make a few for my book case and my kitchen table
I’ve really been enjoying these videos from time’s past. These candles are so pretty!! Thanx Kelly!! ❤
Love the pastel colors!
LOVE this idea!!! Genius!!
Love them.. really pretty colors!!
Thank you for the information you give to all of us it helps us get ideas for the holidays
I don't know about melting the top of the candle. What a great idea
You can also use a mixer and whip the wax for an amazing feature on your candle.
I love those colors
