I used to make candles, they are fun! I think you are an absolute joy❤️ it warms my heart when you say your I love you’s to your family!

[@marywatts3142]

The blue one is my favorite but I really liked all of them. You're so inspiring.

[@sueshatley2675]

How fun with the candle making! The blue one is my favorite, easier too! Michelle, they make a cream to put on your arms to protect your skin from resin. Sometimes it takes months working with resin before you have a reaction. It builds up in your system after time. That happened to me when I was a tumbler maker & I almost always wore a respirator & long sleeves. I quit resin for a year. Please be careful. Just saying...😊❤

You can cut the mold in half if its always a bugger to get out. Use rubber bands then. It works but you might get a seam on the wax that will need cleaned up. I used to make these. I hated punching the hole in them. It was just the thought of ruining a mold😂😅😊 Im pretty weird, i know😂❤ I love the larger one Michelle 😍

[@PrincessJazmina]

Wow that’s really neat!!

[@genajones2823]

Beautiful candles

[@msanne40]

Try the gel wax. It's clear and you can put items into it like you would resin. Those are beautiful 😊

I’m so excited to see how to make Candles…. Your skin is going to love you..

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

Yes it is.

[@AprilPfau-hl1ro]

Oh my gosh, I have so much to learn! I’m in love with the candle patterns, if I have learned anything, it’s only buy the white candle mold! That red one I would have done one time and cut it out! Holy cow on the little mold,my hands would have hurt to much 😊

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

It wasn’t hard like trying to get resin out, it was hard because I could feeling it melt in my hand lol so I couldn’t really get a grip on it to pull. I won’t be making that one a lot.

[@debranewbigging641]

The blue is my favorite. Yellow is pretty too. Honestly, im really not fond of the red one.😊❤ Fantastic job, Michelle

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

I’m not a fan of the red one either.

I loved watching this! I won't make candles like this but it was very interesting. I'm trying to make candles in tins & wax melts. Having trouble figuring out how much scent to use. I read 1oz to 1 pound of wax but I was getting no scent throw. Finally got good scent throw at 3oz per pound of wax. Now if I can just get my tins to burn evenly and not tunnel I will have it down... I think😊

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

You might need a bigger wick. Your wax should tell you what the max fragrance is. Generally It’s no more than 10%

[@AngiesArtCreations24]

@Easeldoesitstudio I did order bigger wicks. The wax does tell me max 10% but I am getting barely any scent throw. You have to be right beside it to smell it. 😐 Idk

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

@AngiesArtCreations24 it might be the oils. I have some oils that barely have any scent in the candle. I’ve been trying different oils and I’m starting to get some better scent throw both hot and cold.

[@josieburggraf3383]

would it help to put it in the freezer for a little before demolding. they are realy purity.

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

I never gave that a thought. I will try it next time. Thank you

[@jeaniebrown8119]

Oh wow... your poor arms! I hope they heal up fast.

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

Thank you

[@cindybrienze8723]

These are very pretty! Wax is much better for your hands

[@Easeldoesitstudio]

Yes it is. Maybe I should coat my hands and arms in wax before I do resin lol 😂 😂😂

[@WhisperingWinds1960]

You DO NOT POKE A HOLE IN THE MOLD THATS THE BOTTOM the top is open. Use popsicle sticks with a hole and lay on top with wicknor they sell a thing for it
