Candle Making Kit, Soy Wax DIY Candle Craft Tools Including Pouring Pot, Wicks, Wicks Sticker, 3-Hole Wicks Holder, Natural Soy Wax and Spoon

A new hobby for me, still working on my candle, really relaxing

This candle making kit is awesome, especially for the price! I had not made container candles before and it was super easy to use, the instructions were easy to understand. I will say that the amount of wax included is only enough to make about 14-15 ounces, as I made two 6.5 ounce container candles and I poured the leftover wax onto my fragrance warmer (not sure the exact amount, but I’m guessing around 2 ounces).No fragrances nor dyes are included, so keep in mind you’d have to purchase those as well as more wax to make more candles. I do wish that the instructions were more clear on what temperature to melt the wax to, and when to add fragrance (at what temperature). There are no instructions for what temperatures to do for either of these, it just says to melt the wax until it’s no longer cloudy. For me, I believe that happened around 165 degrees Fahrenheit, or maybe higher. I added the fragrance at that temperature, the lowest I added would have been 150. I stirred in the fragrance oil slowly for 2 minutes so it could really bind with the wax. I did these temperatures based on YouTube reviews on soy wax, which is this wax type. It seemed to work well for me, as the candles I made have a very nice cold throw (you can smell them when they’re unlit). I have not lit them to test because they will most likely be gifts, but I am optimistic that they will smell lovely as they burn also. I recommend pouring the wax into the container at around 130-135 degrees, because I poured at around 145 degrees and I think it was still a little too hot. I say this because after my wax had set for 30-60 minutes, there was a hole on the top nearby the wick on both candles. I looked up that this is often caused by temperature difference between the wax and its container, and if the container is too cool and the wax is too hot, it can cause issues with how the wax sets and can cause holes.Anyway, overall an excellent product. You get everything you need to make unscented, soy wax container candles at an amazingly low price and value. I had no issues whatsoever with the pitcher, it was very easy to pour wax and to melt wax. Usually I could touch the handle without it hurting my hand; often it was the steam from the hot water that would hurt more, but I would turn down the heat because you don’t want the water to boil too much anyways when melting wax (or so I’ve read).

I found myself purchasing this because I wanted to make candles. It's a nice little kit.It even comes with its own hot plate,so no need to labor over the stove in the heat. I have not yet tried to use it, so I cannot comment either way as to how well its components work. I haven't turned on the hot plate to see if it works. It does NOT come with very much wax at all. Maybe enough to make 2 small candles:probably about two 4in×3in ones,just estimating.The rather small metal melting pot is marked with measuring increments & can hold up to 550mls.It is a cute little pot & seems of good quality.The hot plate is only a small one,I will update my review when I get a chance to use this entire kit, which will be sometime later this week.It came with a bag of wicks,3 very small,circular metal candle tins with lids, 3 metal wick holders,a metal mixing spoon, stickers to connect the wicks to the bottoms of the jar & several squares of red blue & green wax dyes. Nice presentation. So far so good, will update review. As of now I am happy with my purchase.

wow.. this kit is awesome. i’m a beginner and it was so easy and all the items were high quality. for the price this is definitely something i would purchase again.

Nice kit for candle making. The stainless canister is what I really needed. It holds enough wax for about 3 small candles. Getting the soy pellets was a nice addition. I also ordered beeswax pellets. I purchased another for a gift basket for a friend's birthday. She got candle making supplies and some homemade candles too!

OK for beginners but the only thing I don't like this thing does not keep The smell of the fragrance that well! I keep The degree at 140 or lower. This soy candle drowns out the fragrance and I put a lot of fragrance into it the second time around trying to figure out what's going on? Seems like I Gotta add the fragrance once the wax is melted by the heat below to add to smell but when I mix it in it for the wax there's barely any order after everything melts! The candle smell great before I light it smells wonderful but once it heats up and melts to a liquid form the smell goes away. I got to add droplets for the smell to stand out. Maybe if I use a different wax I found a great smell but the perfume or the fragrance but the end results ain't that good the only thing I can think of is the wax just something without any order maybe? I'm trying to figure out why it's not working I found a great smell and I tried to replicate it by making my own but the wax I'm trying to duplicate they don't make for home use??? Maybe if I had to ats and craft store to figure out what's up and why is not working maybe I'll try a little more expensive perfume next week to see if that's the problem but I think it's a wax. That fragrance I bought has really high ratings but let's try the wax first to see if that's a problem.

I love this candle making kit. You will definitely need more wax than what this sent you with, but I just ordered more separately. There’s plenty of wicks though.

there wasn't alot of instruction included but I already watched afew youtube videos about making them so this kit had everything you need. I had the hot plate, I put everything on a cardboard so no worries about wax. The amount of wax you need is obvious once it starts to melt - it may look like alot but melts down fast, I ended up using like almost all of it for four candles. I gave the scent 3 stars but I didn't try them all I used the red ones and am mixed on that, it's not super scenty which is probably good , but it depends what you have in mind. The wick holders are nice and the stickem' for that. I made four candles which will last a long time. I have plenty of wicks and scents with color so perhaps reloading wax is all I would need to do.
