The Art Of Candle Making

Candles lit the world for ages before the Electric lamp was invented. In the olden days, if there was light at night, it was because people had fashioned the workmanship of candle making and later it became an art. However, today Candle making is for fun or fashion.

Candles and be as simple or as complex as you like. They can be coloured or scented by using simple techniques. It is inexpensive to make candles, you will need a few supplies and the best thing about candle making is that it is not very difficult to learn.

Candle Making can be practiced as a Hobby or a home business. Candles are cool gifts for Christmas, weddings, and birthdays. Candles come in a variety of shapes and sizes ranging from small T light candles to large pillar Candles.

There are 3 types of wax - Paraffin, soy wax and beeswax that can be used in Candle Making. Paraffin wax is the oldest type of wax used for making candles. Some people use Soy wax because it is easy to use, is not made from petroleum, and not as expensive as beeswax.

Candle-making can be a time-consuming affair. Like any other Home business, you should first decide what kind of product you would like to sell. It is better to experiment and see what type of candle you would like to make. You can create Votives, Pillars, Jar candles, or Tapers.

While making Candles you should keep the safety aspect in mind. The biggest concern with candle making is melting the wax safely. Few people are so worried about this that they try to avoid the hobby altogether. One precaution is to have a Fire extinguisher close by when you are melting wax. However, some people make their candles in the kitchen, so it is good to have a fire extinguisher in your kitchen.
