How to Make Beeswax Candles

"I guess I am a maker in every sense of the word.

Even when I know I can get something relatively inexpensively at the store, I still find so much satisfaction in learning how to make it myself at home.

Being a maker allows me to add my own creative spin on everything and enjoy the process of seeing pieces and ingredients become finished things."

How to Make Natural Non-Toxic Candles

"I love burning candles, but I want to make sure they are toxic-free and clean burning. Learning how to make natural non-toxic candles with soy wax, no lead wicks and essential oils was much easier than I thought."
