Jack-O-Lantern Candles

For a festive twist on traditional jack-o-lanterns, try making these jack-o-lantern candles! You’ll need pumpkin spice fragrance oil, paraffin wax, an empty glass jar, and a wick. Start by melting the wax in a double boiler. Once it’s melted, remove it from the heat and stir in the pumpkin spice fragrance oil. Glue your wick base to the bottom of the container carefully centering and then secure on top to ensure the wick is centered throughout the candle. Then the wax can be poured in. Let the candle cool and harden completely before lighting it. Enjoy!

This candle is perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your Halloween décor. You’ll need a black pillar candle, a straw broom, and some black ribbon.
