Candlemaking the Natural Way : 31 Projects Made with Soy, Palm & Beeswax

In "Candlemaking the Natural Way", soy, palm wax and beeswax are used to create tastefully beautiful and conscientiously eco-friendly projects. Fragrance, colour and wax additives are explored along with a range of basic techniques including dipped, rolled and molded methods. Beginning crafters in need of a quick and easy gift idea will be just as satisfied as the more advanced candlemaker searching for multi-faceted project inspiration; author Rebecca Ittner's friendly, you-can-too writing style invites both the novice and the aficionado to embrace the world of candlemaking. Not only are the ingredients in this book clean and simple, but they (and the basic candlemaking tools and supplies) are all readily available at standard craft supply stores. This is an affordable, inviting and informative resource as well as an inspiring collection of 31 how-to projects.
