Description

Learn how to make simple “melt and pour” paraffin candles. Making your own gives you control over scent, size and shape. Taught by Elizabeth Pitzer. The cost is $39. Learn how to make simple “melt and pour” paraffin candles. Making your own gives you control over scent, size, and shape. It is economical too - wax that is part of the candle that didn’t burn can even be reused. In this class, participants will make two molded candles, and one small “container” candle which will be made of the more sustainable soy wax that is available now. A wide variety of color and scents will be available. This class will cover all of the basics including how to melt the wax, how to prepare the mold and how to get the finish on your candle that you want. Candles must “set up” for at least a few hours and then more wax is poured into a “well” that will form around the wick. This will be done on the second night during the Candle Making – Transferring Images (XART 645 01) class. Tues, May 17, 6-8 p.m. G118/Ash TLC in Greenville
