Basic Candle Making Supplies You Need
The most important candle supply you need is wax. It provides the fuel for the flame and determines how long the candle will burn. Candle supply companies sell different types of wax, and each has unique characteristics.
Wicks are responsible for carrying the flame and keeping it burning steadily. Choosing the right wick is crucial to ensure that your candle burns evenly and efficiently.
Wicks also come in different sizes (S, M, L) and materials, such as:
Adding fragrance oils to your candles can enhance their appearance and create a unique ambiance in any space. Fragrance oils come in a variety of scents, from floral and fruity to earthy and spicy. They’re specially formulated for use in scented candles and can be combined to create your own custom scent.
Fragrance oils are typically added during the candle making process when the wax is at its optimal temperature. It’s important to follow the recommended usage rates for each fragrance oil, as using too much can affect the candle’s burn time and fragrance throw.
At Candlewic, our captivating scent options add a new dimension to your candles. From ultimate and bold to classic and standard, whatever the season, occasion or mood you are trying to create, we have it all.
While candles can be left in their natural color, adding colorants can create a more visually appealing product. Colorants come in various forms, such as liquid dyes, powdered pigments and wax chips. They’re specially formulated for use in candles and can be mixed to create custom colors.
It’s important to note that certain types of wax may require more or less colorant. It’s best to do a small test batch before adding colorants to your entire candle batch.
Container supplies for candles are also essential when making candles. In fact, they have become increasingly popular due to their ease of use and safety compared to traditional pillar candles. Containers come in various shapes and sizes, from jars and tins to tea cups and mugs. They can also be reused for other purposes after the candle has burned down.
When choosing containers, consider factors such as heat resistance, transparency (for displaying colorants) and whether they can withstand multiple uses. Some popular options include:
Having the right tools can make a big difference in your candle making process. Some essential tools include:
Molds are used for making pillar or shaped candles. They come in various materials, such as silicone, metal and plastic. Silicone molds are popular because they’re flexible and they make it easy to remove the candle once it has hardened.
When choosing a mold, consider the size and shape of your desired candle, as well as the type of wax being used and whether it’s suitable for that particular mold.
