How can I make my own candles as a fun craft project

[MabelEvans]

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

**Basic Candle Making**: Grab some wax (like paraffin or soy), a wick, and a heat-safe container. Melt the wax in a double boiler, then let it cool a bit before pouring it into your container. Stick the wick in the center, hold it in place with a pencil or chopstick, and let it set. You can even add some essential oils for a nice scent!

**Crayon Candles**: This one’s super fun and colorful! Gather some old crayons, break them into small pieces, and melt them down with some wax in a double boiler. Pour the melted mix into molds or containers, and you’ll have funky, colorful candles. Plus, it’s a great way to recycle those broken crayons!
