Complete instructions

Other Ingredients You'll Need: Pouring Pot, Pot (for double boiler), Mixing Spoon (do not use plastic), Stainless or Glass Measuring Cup, Stainless Measuring Spoon, Pot Holders, Stove, Thermometer, Hot Glue Gun & Hot Glue Sticks.

Instructions:

Before you begin melting your wax, make sure you have your containers ready to be filled. Use a hot glue gun and stick your wicks to the bottom of all of your containers.
Place the pot (with 1/2" of water) on the stove or hot plat on low heat. Place an empty pouring pot inside the cake pan to create a double boiler effect.
Place 1 pound of wax + 1/8 of a color block (or less if you desire a pastel colored candle) inside the pouring pot and melt the entire mixture to 175 degrees F. Use your thermometer to monitor the temperature. Thoroughly mix the wax mixture.
Once the mixture is 175 degrees F, remove from the heat. Allow the wax temperature to cool to approximately 130 degrees F. Quickly add 1 oz. to 1 1/2 oz. fragrance oil, stir the mixture. Once the mixture is slushy in appearance (around 110 degrees F), pour the mixture into your containers.
Allow candle to cool at room temperature. Make sure your wicks are straight. Soy Candles will naturally have a mottled appearance, however pouring the wax when it is slushy will reduce this mottled appearance.
For best results, allow your candles to set for at least 3 days... then you are ready to burn them!
