How To Make A Traditional Candle

Our traditional glasses are perfect for crafting unique candles in a simple and clean way. They come with a matching lid with a silicone seal for a safe and secure fit that offers a super clean finish. We stock two sizes, 60cl and 75cl. Candles are a very popular Christmas gift, so why not make your own?

What you need:

Step 1 – Wick 

Peel off the wick stick um and place it onto the end of the candle wick. 
Peel off the other side and place the wick in the middle of your Traditional Candle Glass. 

Step 2 – Measure

Measure your wax, around 400g for our 60cl glass, or around 600g for our 75cl glass.
We have used EcoSoya CB Advanced as it has great scent throw and glass adhesion, perfect for container candles. 

Step 3 – Melt 

Fill your plan halfway with boiling water.
Melt your wax on a medium to low heat and stir until melted.
Once your wax has melted thoroughly, take off the heat. 

Step 4 – Dye

Add your chosen dye and stir.
We have chosen a bright pink, as the glass is clear,  a bright or bold colour looks great!

Step 5 – Fragrance oil

Let your wax cool to 65 degrees before adding your chosen fragrance oil.
We chose black cherry as it’s a strong and vibrant fragrance. 
As your creating a bold candle make sure you use a bold fragrance to match. 

Step 6 – Pour

Transfer your wax into a pouring jug and then pour your wax into your traditional candle glass.
Then add your wick centering tool and leave your candle to set overnight.

Done! 

Our Traditional Candle Glasses are very similar to a popular high street candle brand. 
If you are a fan of the brand, why not have a go at making your own?

We’d love to see your work!
