Votive Molds Ready to Go

Votive Molds Ready to Go

David Fisher
For this project, you'll need:
  • A Votive blend wax - I'm using IGI 4761
  • Votive Molds and Wick Pins
  • Fragrance and/or color, as desired
  • Basic candle making equipment
  • A basic understanding of the steps to make a votive candle.
Start by putting the wick pins into the metal molds, weighing out your wax, and putting it on to melt. Each of these molds will hold about 2 oz. of wax.
