Instruction how to make a candle...
Step 1: Prepare materials
- Choose the container of your choise, such as a glass jar, and clean it
- Measure or wheigh the wax needed
- If desired, choose a favorite color and have it ready

Step 2: Place wick
- Attach the wick to the centre of the container.

Step 3: Melt wax
- Melt the wax in a wax melting pot or double-walled water bath
- Pay attention to melting, mixing and pouring temperatures and to follow the wax manufacturer's instructions
- It is important that the wax does not get too hot, it must not boil and should only be heated to 80°C (use the thermometer for this)
Step 4: Addition of moroccan amber oil

Step 5: Pouring
Carefully pour the melted wax into the container, keeping the wick in the centre. Allow the wax to cool completely and harden. We recommend a rest and drying period of at least 1-2 days.
Step 6: Cut the wick
