Candle Making Mold
This candle making mold is one of the essential tools in crafting. You'll also need:
- Wax or paraffin
- Fragrance oil
- Liquid candle dye
- Waxed wick
For making this type of candle, we recommend using GV-20 wax. It's especially suitable for making candles in silicone molds, producing perfectly detailed figures. It's high-quality wax that delivers great results. Plus, working with it is very easy, and prior experience is not required.
As for fragrance oil, you can choose your favorite scent. To color your candles, our advice is to go for liquid candle dyes. They're easy to use and yield excellent results. Moreover, they're available in a wide range of colors. You'll find a selection of concentrated liquid dyes that go a long way and are cost-effective.
Another option? You can make them in a neutral color and decorate them with paints and varnishes for candles, also available in our online store. The result will be spectacular! Embrace the artisanal approach and create unique, personalized creations.
When choosing the wick, consider the diameter or width of the figure you're making. Depending on the centimeters, you'll need to opt for one type or another. Additionally, take into account the wax's melting point and whether additives are being used.
All the materials for making candles can be found in the Gran Velada online store.
How to Make Homemade Candles
Below, we'll show you step by step how to make homemade candles with this mold. You'll see how simple it is!
Gently melt the wax in a pot over low heat. When only small pieces remain unmelted, turn off the heat and let the residual heat finish melting them.
Meanwhile, thread the wick through the mold. Insert it through the base hole and secure it at the top with a wick holder. This is the easiest way to position the wick. If your mold doesn't have a hole, you can create one easily using a pointed object.
Add liquid dye and a few drops of fragrance oil to the melted wax and stir well to integrate. It's important not to saturate the candles with too much scent or color. Keep in mind that if too much is added, the wax won't absorb them well.
Fill the mold and let it dry completely. It's important to avoid drafts and sudden temperature changes to prevent the candles from sinking.
Unmold the candle, trim the excess wick, and decorate it to your liking. Ready to use!
