Candle Making ~ Before and After

I thought it might be interesting to show before and after pics of a homemade candle. Before I taught myself to make candles, I had no idea what went into a candle.

Two 8oz jelly jars wicked. Creamy Cocoa fragrance oil & mahogany dye chip will be added to 1lb paraffin wax blend.   

Here the wicks are tied to pencils. The pencils are held to the sides of the jars with mold sealer.
Melting the granulated wax.
The wax has been dyed, scented, poured, & cooled. Wicks trimmed.. and.. Ta da! Two completed 8oz creamy cocoa jar candles!!

 Let me know what you think :)
