DIY Gel Candles

Hello! Today we're making gel candles. You will need:
  • gel candle wax
  • candle wicks
  • food coloring
  • essential oils of your choice 
  • heat-safe containers
  • small objects to put in the candles
  • glue gun




With your glue gun, glue the wick to the center along with the decorations onto the sides of the container.


Then, melt the wax onto a stove using the double boiler method on low heat until melted. It took my wax about 2 hours to melt.


After that, add in your desired amount of food coloring and essential oils.



Pour the wax into the container and let it harden for at least 4 hours. And you're done! This is how mine turned out:


This DIY was super fun to make. It's pretty time consuming, but it's worth it! I hope you try this out sometime.

Until next week,
