Let There Be Light

Honeycomb Beeswax Candle:

an easy to make and a fun sweet smelling craft/gift! ALL you need is beeswax sheets and wick. They usually come in 8x12 or 8x16. In order to get my beeswax shipped here to Alaska, I opt to have the 8x12 sheets, mailed priority mail. I shopped around and the best place to buy, including shipping was HERE. They are also available in a rainbow of colors.
To make a tall candle use the whole sheet or to make 2 candles out of 1 sheet, cut a sheet length wise. I use a pizza cutter.

Now, measure your wick about an inch longer then the wax and press down onto the wax.
Make sure you wax is at least room temp. Using a hair dryer can warm up the wax so it will roll much easier.Turn over the edge and begin to roll with a little pressure, keeping the ends even.

Now, press down on the seam.
You can slightly warm up the end to make a very flat end so your candle will set straight.
If you would like a tapered candle, trim off some wax at an angle,
and follow the same instructions.

These candle burn clean and have a sweet smell. They make a great gift with a little gift tag added. Just remember to remove the tag before burning!
You can also embellish them with different colored wax using mini cookie cutters.
