How To... Homemade Soy Candles

As favors for the shower I just recently threw, I wanted to make something homemade for the guest to take home.  I thought candles would be a nice gift that would get used!  It is super simple!





If you want to add fragrance, drip the oil into the melted wax just before pouring... We choose ocean breeze!



Honestly this was so super easy I almost done want to ever buy another candle!

Great idea for a favor! I was going to make these for holiday gifts last year and never got around to it. Perfect idea for the shower I'm hosting next month Where did you buy the wax?

As you can see I'm trying to catch up on all your posts that I missed :)

This is amazing! I never thought of making my own candles but this is so cool and to think you can give them as gifts. Awesome!

Hi! I seem to have found this post a few months behind, but that's what happens with Pinterest. Anyways, I'm wondering how long it took for the wax to dry?
