Step 1

Melt wax, oil and optional butters in a double boiler.

Step 2

Prepare your containers: attach wicks to the bottom of jars with tape or hot glue, and secure the top of the wicks in the center of the jars, using a clothespin.

Step 3

Once the beeswax is all melted, add in essential oils if you want.

Step 4

Pour into containers. Try to do this quickly because the beeswax hardens very fast.

Step 5

Let them set-up for 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 6

Trim wicks to about 1/2 inch.
