How do I make my own homemade candles

Sure! Here are three different ways you can make your own homemade candles:

**Basic Candle Making**: Start by gathering your materials: wax (like paraffin or soy), a wick, a heat-safe container, and some essential oils for scent if you want. Melt the wax in a double boiler until it's fully liquefied. Once melted, add your fragrance oils, then carefully pour the wax into your container, making sure the wick is centered. Let it cool and harden, and you’ve got yourself a nice homemade candle!

**Using Crayons for Color**: If you want to add some color to your candles, you can use crayons! Just chop up a few crayon pieces and add them to your melted wax. Follow the same steps as before: melt the wax, mix in the crayon bits for color, add fragrance if you like, and pour it into a container with a wick. It’s a fun way to customize your candles!
