First Step If you have a double-boiler then that's perfect but if not a cooking utensil would do just as fine. So no need to actually buy it specially for making candles.

So pour the wax in the utensil and let it melt. You can use a thermometer to measure the temperature and target it to about 160-190 째F. Leave it there.And lets move on till the time it melts.

Second Step Use pre-tabbed wicks which are easily available. If you are not sure what they are visit the link below to see what it is and how to use it. You would take a wick and a glass,steel etc any container in which you would like make your candle. With the help of glue stick the stick the wick in the middle of the container.

Step Three Take a look at the wax if melted the contents would be completely mixed. Stir it to check.If so pour it in the container. Visit homemade candles for more info. Make sure the top area of wick is exposed and not to overfill the container.

Step Four Leave it to cool down at least 8-10 hours for best results.Leave it at room temperature. I usually leave it to cool down overnight. You will see that when cooled down it thickens.

Step Five All that you need to do now is to trim the wick to give it a neat look.

And That's it. You have Made a Candle. Job well done!
