Marbled Container Candles Video

Saturday February 9, 2008
The humble container candle actually has much more potential than we often give it credit for. You don't have to be limited to just one color wax in a Jelly Jar, (though that is perhaps the candle most often made, especially by beginners.) You can do layered container candles, you can use interesting containers like coffee cups or small metal buckets (or shot glasses or sea shells or ceramic bowls or beer glasses...). Here are step by step instructions to make a marbled container candle, which, while it does use a Jelly Jar, goes wild with color. Each one you do will be a unique creation. And to accompany the step by step instructions, here is a new candle making video demonstrating how to make the marbled container candles.
