Weigh out and melt your wax to about 180 degrees. Add your fragrance oil and stir well. If you are making a one-color/one-layer candle, you would also add your colorant here. But we're making a two-toned candle, and the top tone is white, so no color here.

Note: If your two tones were both colors, you would add your first "top" color here.
