    To those complaining about loud music drowning out voice. If you click on the three dots to the right below video, you can open a transcript. Great feature that I only learned of recently!

      By the way, relaxing techniques would probably be helpful for those disturbed by the wee bit loud music ;-).

      @wellnestacupunctureholisti7564  8 лет назад +1

      Hi! There are an abundance of fragrance oils you can choose from at online specialty stores. These oils are designed specifically for candles. I wouldn't use perfume as it can be a flammable substance. Check out some of yummy scents here: www.candlescience.com/fragrance/all-fragrance-oils

  • @MrGrey1997

    quick question say you have a smaller or larger jar how do you determine how much wax to melt.

    • @wellnestacupunctureholisti7564
      @wellnestacupunctureholisti7564  7 лет назад +2

      To determine how much wax you will need, you will first need to decide on what container you want to use. Next, you'll want to decide how many candles you want to make. Here's the basic formula:
      (ounces of wax per container) X (number of containers) = (ounces needed)
      (ounces needed) ÷ 16 (ounces in 1 pound) = (pounds of wax needed)
      For example, let's say you wanted to make 25 candles in 8oz candle tins.
      (some tin/jar sellers tell you the wax weigh line. This line indicates the weight of wax that will consume space up to that line). You could also fill a mason jar with wax to the line you wish it to be filled to and then weigh the wax in ounces. The wax weight to fill line is 4.8oz.
      4.8 x 25 = 120
      120 ÷ 16 = 7.5
      In this example you would need at least 7.5 pounds of wax to make 25 8oz candle tins. It is always a good idea to round up this number. It's always better to have a little wax left over than to not have enough!

    Can you use vanilla extract instead of fragrance oil?

    • @tarawellness1995
      @tarawellness1995 7 лет назад

      Vanilla extract has alcohol in it, which is flammable. I don't recommend using it.

    • @wellnestacupunctureholisti7564
      @wellnestacupunctureholisti7564  4 года назад

      Vanilla extract may contain alcohol which is NOT ideal. I suggest using essential oil OR candle fragrance which you can purchase from candlescience.com

      I wouldn't recommend this. Perform may have alcohol which is less than ideal. You could, however, purchase candle fragrance oil as an alternative.
