How can I make my own candles at home

[SarahReynolds]

Sure! Here are four different ways to make your own candles at home:

**Basic Candle Making**: Grab some wax (like paraffin or soy), a wick, and a container. Melt the wax in a double boiler, then pour it into your container, leaving some space at the top. Stick the wick in the center, let it cool, and voilà! You’ve got a candle!

**Scented Candles**: Follow the same basic process as above, but add some essential oils or fragrance oils to the melted wax for a nice scent. Just make sure to check the recommended amount on the oil bottle so it smells just right!

**Colorful Candles**: If you want to get fancy, you can add color to your candles. Use crayon shavings or candle dye when you're melting the wax. Just mix it in until you get your desired shade before pouring it into your container.
