How To Make Your Own Natural Soy Jar Candles

Natural Soy Jar Candles

Natural soy jar candles are great way to create a relaxing atmosphere within your home. Imagine a nice relaxing evening in your living room with the lights out and a few natural soy jar candles lit to provide the light and you can even have one scented to really help you relax.

To make your own natural soy jar candles it is best to get a simple container which you should be able to buy from any supermarket or craft shop. You will then need to make sure that you everything you need to make your natural soy jar candles. For a beginner it would generally be a good idea to buy a kit so that you can get all the ingredients and instructions that you need to make your natural soy jar candles.

You will need what is known as a ‘double-boiler’ to make your own natural soy jar candles but don’t panic if you don’t have one as you can improvise by using a saucepan which you will fill with water which you will bring to the boil and and then gently place on top a glass bowl or another smaller saucepan which will include your wax for melting. Once melted you can mix in your colourings and fragrances.

You will then need to place your wick in the jar that you are using for your natural soy candles. Once the wick has been centered then you can pour in the wax but you must make sure that the wick stays in place whilst doing this.

Once your natural soy jar candle has cooled and the wax has solidified then you can light the candle as it is or you can spend some time in decorating the jar and making it look perfect for your home. Decorated natural soy jar candles would also make the perfect gifts for your friends and family.
