Description
Intermediate Candle Making KitThe intermediate candle making kit has been designed so you can experiment multi wicking jars with both cotton and wooden wicks. We have pulled together a kit that contains everything you need to make 4 beautiful soy candle bowls using the gloss white cylinder jar from Libbey. This jar has clean classic lines and the internal gloss paint is non-toxic and baked on making it super tough and will not easily scratch or peel. This is without a doubt the highest quality painted candle jar of this size available. The candle kit includes two different wicks; our cotton wicks and our ultimate wood wicks. This means that you can make 2 candles and multi wick these jars using the cotton wicks supplied and then make two more using the ultimate wood wicks. This enables you to create new candles without the worry that they may turn out wrong or not burn correctly. We have also included just the right amount of fragrance and wax for these jars so you can simply enjoy making then as much as you do burning them. Kit Includes: 4 x 851 Libbey White Cylinder Jars

InstructionsIf you are making all of the candles at the same time then melt all the wax from the kit until it reaches 75-80 degrees. Then add your fragrance and stir constantly for 2 minutes. You will need to prepare your jars with the wicks before the wax is ready to pour. To do this you will need to double wick your jars. We have done the calculations for you but you will need to imagine the jar is cut in half and then place one of the wicks in the centre of the each half. You will need to do this for both the cotton wicks and the wooden wicks. (Please note that you only require stickums for the cotton wicks, the wooden wicks will fit into the wick sustainers and are heavier enough to stay in place). Once the temperature of your fragranced wax has dropped to 62 degrees then pour the wax into your wick ready vessel. Always ensure that your glassware is clean and dry prior to wicking and filling. Libbey jars (including painted jars) can be safely washed in warm soapy water and reused several times over. |
