In the past only candle manufacturers are knowledgeable and entitled to create candles. Candles that they produce usually look like long elongated pieces of very basic colors. Candles then have only one smell: it smelt of candle wax. Although art and design can be done through candles, it still remains as it is- long and elongated tubes. Modern techniques in candle making resolved to have even a beginner create his own unique candle version.
To make a candle first step is to prepare the ingredients. The ingredients are: paraffin wax, wax dyes, candle mold, candle wick, thermometer, metal saucepan, spoon and candle scent (optional). Melt the wax into the metal saucepan and add wax dye or candle scent. Remove wax from heat and transfer to mold and let it cool. This is the basic and easiest way to make candle wax.
There are lots of designs that can be done through candles as they are very pliable and easy to work with. You can actually make fake food out of candles. Imagine the excitement and joy a crafter can feel by working on a candle burger, candle chocolate, cookie, tea, ice cream, etc. These innovative ways of working with candles make candle making a huge success in craft fairs and festivals.
Wax dyes or candle colorants are widely available in any hobby stores or craft stores anywhere. They are colorants used to create hues in your candle art. Candle scents on the other hand are used to provide a scent with your candle. Imagine a strawberry candle with a strawberry scent. It definitely looks and smells like the real thing you can fool your friends in eating it!
Crafts such as these are excellent business opportunities that can triple your money in no time. You just need a little creativity and alas! Youre low capital may just jump to huge profits in the end.
