This is how the candles are made:

The stick candles:


Firstly, we tape the candles with masking tape. The lower part is dipped in wax. Tie a ribbon to the top of the candle for looping.

Melt the organic wax in the melting pot. Then we need 4 candle drops (2 sets). The candles are made in 4 colour shades. For the first stick candle, we add 1 candle drop to the wax. The completely melted wax is poured into the mixing cup. Now dip the lower part of the first stick candle into it. If the wax does not fill the cup completely, you can tilt the mixing cup slightly and turn the candle in the wax. Loop the candle to dry. Pour the wax back into the melting pot and melt drop no. 2. Repeat this process for the other candles.

You can of course also dip the candles in the same colour. To do this, melt as many candle drops with the organic wax as you like and how intense you want the colour to be and then dip the candles in.

Stamp the transfer paper with the star stamp and cut to size. Dip in water and transfer the foil to the candle.

The gift wrappings:


Cut a sheet of kraft paper in half. Round off the corners with the card punch (included in the folding board set). Measure 7 cm along the sides and cut 0.5 cm notches into them. Mark the edges of the cardboard and the tags with the Gelly Roll pens. Place the finished stick candles on the cut cardboard and tie with the cord. Tie on the tag and jingles.

This universal melting pot has a Ø of approx. 13.2 cm and a height of approx. 12.5 cm. It has a capacity of 1 litre and is made of aluminium with a plastic handle. Weight of the pot is approx. 275 grams. An instruction manual is on the packaging.

Gone are the days when you had to improvise! Here comes a helper for melting Wax for candles, casting chocolate, sugar masses or soap. Melting wax is easy and safe! The double-walled aluminium melting pot is filled with water at the side filling opening and closed tightly with the supplied plug. Now only heat it up on the hotplate or gas field and off you go.

The wax filled in the melting pot is immediately heated and melted by the water heated in the sides and under the base. This prevents the wax from burning or overheating. The water level should be checked and refilled from time to time. Due to the low weight the pot is easy to handle and not so heavy in the hand when pouring. This makes pouring wax or soap a safe thing and you can concentrate fully on pouring the moulds
