Making Pillar Candles

 

When we launched MakingYourOwnCandles in 2009, we chose to include moulds for making votive candles as this meant that you could get lots of practice creating the candles most often used in the home. However, since then we’ve added Beeswax candles and, most recently, Christmas Advent Candles and Dinner Candle Kit.

We’d decided not to include pillar candles because the moulds were so expensive that we couldn’t see any way of creating a kit for an economical price. However, we’ve now sourced good quality plastic moulds and we’re testing whether they can be used for creating consistently professional results. So far, the signs are good: this mould uses 200g of wax to create a lovely candle which we’re currently test burning. You can see an example on this page.

We’re aiming to launch in the next few weeks so make sure you’re on our list (signup on the right) as we’ll let our list members know first and we’ll include a limited time launch voucher.
