The Art Of Candles Making: The Top 5 Reasons To Build Your Own Instead of Buying Them

Candles making has always been one of the most magnificent crafts for people all around the globe. It is quite reasonably considering one of the greatest, most beautiful and yet hardest of Arts. It is also a tradition that is passed down from generation to generation, spanning across times and branching out into different cultures.

Perhaps you've considered making candles yourself but you don't know how. Maybe you think that you will need special expensive equipment or don't have space to store anything else in your home. Well I'm going to tell you why all of that is just plain wrong and how you can start making your own candles today!

#1) Price

So you considered making your own candles but you don't want to spend any money to make them. Well If you consider the price for "premium" candles they sell at places like local pharmacies, Rx Stores, and even Walmart, well you know that prices can range anywhere from 20$ dollars or more! For the price of one starter kit you could easily make all the money you spend back after making just 2 or 3 candles! Easy!

#2) Variety

When you go to the store or shop online you are limited to what they have in their inventory. Most of the time their best "premium" candles are candles that can you can easily make on your own! When you decide to take charge of your craft, you can come up with just about anything possible! If you want to make a fuchsia-colored beeswax floating rose candle with or without a scent, you can do it! You can even create a variety of candle that is all your own!

#3) Equipment

Although purchasing a starter kit is a great way to VERY easily get started, some of you don't want to buy these kits. It's perfectly understandable. In fact, sometimes it's better not to, because most of the time starter kits are overpriced. You can also start making candles with the materials you have in your kitchen, so there really is no need to purchase starter kits unless you don't have the basic materials such as a small hot plate, or for gel-based candles, multi-cookers.

#4) Difficulty

As daunting as some people may make it seem, it's not actually as hard as it looks. If you can knit, do basic pottery, or create other crafts, you can definitely make candles. All you really need is a few pieces of equipment, some wax, a little imagination, and finally a good tutorial or instructional book!

#5) Make it a Business

If you can make candles, you can sell them to other people. It really is that easy. Besides, if you've bought candles before you know how much they overcharge and how many they sell. If you have crafts fairs or flea markets in your neighborhoods, you can easily hundreds of candles. If you were to sell a few, nice dozen or two of candles, then you could easily make 100$ dollars or more if you only sold them at $9, a fraction of the price they charge at retailers or pharmacies! When you save enough money you can then move your business onto the Internet! You can start your business in places like Amazon where they help you along the way.
