Thanks for this video.... i've struggled with my gel candles Question if you have plastic flowers etc should you put water 1st then gel ive had a few issues with this

[@4Anastasia]

It’s up to you. But if plastic flowers will be in water, it’s actually better because gel wax won’t melt them. Depends on plastic it can melt.

[@sofiahadalamb7414]

Great video! I was wondering if you had any tips on doing half gel half soy wax, with the wick only starting after the gel wax ends. How would you put a wick on top of the gel wax ?

[@4Anastasia]

It has to cool down with wick inside of it. You can always cut little hole and place wick inside of gel but it won’t look pretty. Another thing you can do just placing little candle above your gel. Or you can pour water above gel. And use water floating candle.

[@lisapupillo1724]

Thank you so much for addressing the bubble issue! I have tried SO many different techniques with different decorations & still hadn't found THE secret other than just letting them sit in the oven for hours. I just tried your technique of cutting up the gel over the objects & it worked BEAUTIFULLY! I even used apple & orange slices & cinnamon sticks which ALWAYS have bubble problems. I even put cloves & putka pods & they stayed where I put them. The best part is it leaves a few bigger bubbles - I like the candles to have at least some bubbles but I hate the tiny bubbles. You have no idea how happy you just made me! My candles are soon going to be sold by someone who saw my Etsy shop & wanted to add them to her store & I was really nervous about not being able to keep up with orders but now I'm all set cuz I know they'll consistently come out the way I like them. Sorry for babbling on - I'm just so excited! I'm just curious though -- I understand why cutting up the gel over the objects works, but how does the pan with the water work? How does that help? Thank you!

[@4Anastasia]

You are so welcome Lisa! It helps keep class hot and that helps with bubbles. If glass is cold it won’t help :)

[@lisapupillo1724]

@@4Anastasia Thank you so much for the quick reply! Do you mean it keeps the glass hot when you take it out of the oven to set? I think I did something wrong. I either used too much water so that some condensation got in the gel or I might have dripped some water in them when I peaked at them, but in any case, I noticed that, in the center of the candles, the gel was foggy. So I tried a couple without the pan of water and when they were completely melted, I shut off the oven and left them to cool in there, and that worked out well. Perhaps they would have had less bubbles with the pan of water but, like I said, I do like a few bubbles as I think that is a good characteristic of the gel to show off. I even did one with silk flowers and leaves and since you can place everything where you want it in the gel chunks and the gel stays thick enough to hold the objects in place at 195 degrees, it came out awesome! I never thought of doing it this way. The only thing I tried close to this was pouring the gel when it's thick, hoping it would be set by the time it hits the object so that it doesn't let bubbles seep out, but of course that doesn't work. The gel just sets before it even fills the container. You have no idea how relieved I am! I am SO picky with my candles, to the point where I'll heat metal spoon handles or tweezers with a torch & dunk it in the gel to try to melt bubbles out or use a heat gun to melt the bubbles around the outer candle. Sometimes I just ended up adding MORE bubbles! I am my own worst critic. I'm sure if someone else's candle came out exactly the same as mine, I would think their candle was great & mine was terrible, but now, with your technique, I feel good about how the candle comes out and don't feel the need to mess with it. Really, I can't thank you enough! You helped an overly critical & irrational perfectionist relax because I know I will be happy with the results the first time and with any objects I want to use. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

What a great informative video! Thank you so much! I have been using dry flowers to decorate the wine glass while having a tea light holder placed in the center of the glass and poured gel wax around it. It has so many bubbles, i tried to use a heat gun and heat the glass surface, but there are still many small bubbles. I am going to try your way! But because my flowers will move around, i stick the flowers on the glass before i pour the wax. u mentioned not to move when wax is being poured to avoid bubbles. Im going to try this and but should i move the glass to a preheated oven for it to slowly set? Thank you once again!

They can if you place them to close to wick. So you should keep them away from wick. Because only around wick (1-1.5cm around) that’s how much is burned.

Hello, just subscribed. I need help. Im trying to make a candle wax centerpiece. Its with a glass vase, a picture of my son on both sides, which we taped, sand on the bottom with rocks and a flower in the middle. This is my first time making a candle centerpiece and it didnt come out as planned. The candle wax was very blurry and we could hardly see the flower. I had to take out the gel and just candle wax the bottom. I really wanted the candlewax to cover his pictures and the whole vase. Do you have any advice for me.

[@4Anastasia]

In this video I show step by step how to make sure your gel wax stays nice and don’t turn blurry. But remember that any big meat that touches your wax can turn it blurry or change color or it. Don’t mix or move wax around ones you pour it. If you move it around with stick/spoon it will turn it blurry. If your flower has color that can mix with wax it will change color as well. Poop it in one spot without moving, slow. Hope it helps.

[@AlottaBoulchit]

Can you layer gel wax? For example making like a layered rainbow in gel wax? Also if you can layer the wax that might solve floating light object issues. Just do a small layer that anchors the ornaments in place then add the rest on top? Anyway, thanks for the video! I always wondered what these whacky clear candles were made of!

[@4Anastasia]

Yes you can. But it won’t solve the issues. If you using same color wax and doing layers that means you will see where old wax dryad. So you will see lines all over your candle. If you trying to do different colors than it’s fine since you want to see were new wax starts.

Hi! Hoping you reply. I’ve started making smaller glass gel candles with a smaller votive jar inside. When the candle burns in the middle the gel is burning along the outside too is this normal?

[@4Anastasia]

Hey! I’m little confused in your explanation. But gel will melt like in normal candle wax. Usually I use only glass vase/jar. When it’s to narrow it can burn glass a little so better to have wider vase/jar.

Hi, I'm using gel wax to make a pond scene from a wine bottle. Do I need to place the scene in and then put the wax unheated into the bottle so that bubbles don't form on the items in the scene?

[@4Anastasia]

Joan, I have used small ornaments before and I found it easier to pour hot gel wax first over my ornaments. That will create bubbles so then you would need to put it in oven over smaller heat and let those bubbles Evaporate. If you cut unheated wax over small ornaments and then place it in over. It might melt and move those small ornaments and mess up your composition. Hope that helps. It also depends on quality and size of your ornaments/items.

FINALLY!! I've been trying to make these gel candles for a while now and I can NOT get them to come out without bubbles. I've done about 10 and only 1 of them turned out the way I wanted. I melted the wax on the stove first and poured real slow but when I just came across your tutorial I tried the oven way. So far the smaller ones are doing ok but the 2 larger ones have so many bubbles. Do you think that's just because there's more wax? They're still in the oven at 195 degrees, so I'll leave them a while longer at that temp and hope for the best.

[@4Anastasia]

Thank you so much for liking my video. Yes the larger the vase the more bubbles but it's also depends on your ornaments. So let say you used ornaments that are made of something different then glass, that means they have air in them as well. So, it will take even longer for air go out from gel and from your ornaments. After I finished doing mine. I left my large vase for about 3-5 hours in oven and when I took it out I set it above my warm stove and covered it with scarf so it stays in warm place even longer. But working with large vases is always harder then smaller.

So for my project I'm trying to make candles with suspended flowers. What technique should I use? Should I use water covered with gel wax, just gel wax adding flowers in layers, I'm not sure. Thank you again for the great video!

[@4Anastasia]

Good question! I would say depends on Material of your flowers. If they can stay under water without changing shape, add water first and then gel. Flowers under water always looks pretty for my opinion. If your flowers made of plastic for example, hot gel can melt them. And it will Ruin your composition. So think about Material you using first. And then decide if you want it to be only gel, or 50/50. Hope that helps.

Pressed would look good if you do layers. But if you add layers of wax. In clear vase you will see lines. That’s a downside of this technique. If you can’t see sides, and just top then that’s good technic.

[@journeystorm8585]

Hi Anastasia! Had a slight set back this evening. I was so excited because everything turned out so beautiful but then my wick fell right over into the melted wax. I use the proper wicks though they had wax .. they are made for gel candles but I stripped the wax off. It was still sturdy being it's the kind with the part inside that makes it stand straight up. My project was the display in the bottom and then filled with water and then about 1 1/2 inches of gel wax that I scented. About 15 minutes into burning.. it fell over. I was hoping to be able to do this project without having a wick through the entire candle to the bottom. I put it in the middle like you did. Is there any way to fix this? I wondered if leaving the metal tab on the wick and pushing through the gel wax just underneath it so maybe the wax below would somehow support it but wondering if the water will absorb into the wick. Any ideas? Please help. This was such a beautiful piece and just GLOWED inside so beautiful. Thank You so much. Have a Blessed Evening. Can't wait to hear form you.

[@4Anastasia]

Thank you so much for sharing your issues. So if I understood you correctly you have water under and gel on the top? If gel on a top, those candles with wick will burn fast. I give one sample in my video if you want to keep your design/decor longer is to put tiny candle holder on top of your gel and put tint candle in it. If you want to have wick in your candle, while it’s cooling down you need to hold wick in a center with clippers or something like that. While it’s burning - it should not fall over. Because gel wax is evaporating while it’s burning. Hope this helps. If not, please define your question little more for me. Good luck!

But you would have laughed at my husband and I rewinding over and over to see what you were saying at 7:35 --- it sounded like "WAYS" so I finally gave up as we laughed at ourselves not being able to understand that one word and played more video and finally I understood that you must be saying "Vase" or "Base" --- so I knew then though you were talking about the container. Your video was so much fun to watch. Ok... so I did a small round fish bowl and put the wick in the middle of the wax on TOP of the water. The wick was burning BEAUTIFUL! I left for a little bit and came back and it had fallen into the wax lol.. .. I totally missed what you were saying about it would burn fast.. UGH! Ok... so I am thinking that I must find a small glass piece for t-light candle and not make these "Aroma Therapy" but may make some "Aroma Therapy" T-Lite" for people to purchase for these type projects. I watched so many gel candle videos but yours was so much better than all the rest. When I do the gel in the oven for "No Bubbles"... what about pieces inside the base like moss or foam pieces.. will they burn in oven? I need watch video again because you said no hot glue or cloudy look to see what you used. I cannot remember. Can you add me to Facebook and see my beautiful candle though? Everyone was loving it! then I was so disappointed when it was a "set back". My facebook is: Christy Rhoden Lynch ---- Then may I message you? I have never ever seen more beautiful candles than yours! Thank You new friend. Be Blessed!

If that make you smile that’s good. I was saying “vase” it needs to be warm before you put it in over. Yes, maybe try smaller glass. You can find all my work, on my Facebook business page. Of you want to share your work. I have Facebook group, and you can post your work in my group for all of us to see it. It’s called - “4Anastasia - DIY, Fashion, Hair, Makeup, Skin Care. “

Where do you sell your fantastic candles. If I need some.

[@4Anastasia]

Thank you so much Alyna! But I don’t tell them. But that’s a good idea 💡

[@renalee9683]

Hi Anastasia, I went to facebook to join your group but there are so many of them and they are mostly beauty, makeups and fashions. Is there one mainly on candle making and comments...to share???

[@4Anastasia]

Rene, I do little of everything, DIY, fashion, beauty and skin care so group covers everything:) I do not have group or channel that does only candles.

Thanks for your very useful information 👍. 👍Can we reuse Gel? Please help me. Thank you

Hey! Yes, you can but it won’t be clear anymore. It’s going to looks more blurry and dirty unfortunately.

I know you said the wicks need to be wax free covered. So can you use any wicks as long as they aren't covered and treated with wax? Thanks

Yes, exactly!:)

I have not, sorry about that!

How can i get rid of bubbles in a gel wax candle after I made it and added the wick ? Can i use the same technique of putting it in the oven? or does it not work after the gel has solidified ?

[@4Anastasia]

Yes, you can try to use same technique to get rid of bubbles. But it might be harder to get rid of them at that point.

[@ayamostafa5919]

is the gel was non melting? or does it melt like regular wax

[@4Anastasia]

It melts like regular wax.

[@renalee9683]

Hi Anastasia, I am from Singapore and I am a little confused about the no bubble part with the pan, the oven and the water with the towel. Can you kindly elaborate step by step what I should do to avoid having bubbles in my gel...please...and again, where can I buy the round sphere hollow candle holders where you can put the string pearls and not too much gels....I bought some but it's not the same. the ones I got are just a little space to hold the candle and the rest is a huge empty space and has to be completely filled up with gel or wax to complete the deco. Please assist and am delighted to see your videos. keep it up dear...

[@4Anastasia]

Hi Rena, if you talking about the ones has pearls in it. This is what I used. Unfortunately you still need to fill them up with gel. Amazing always sells new products and sometimes old ones sold out. www.amazon.com/shop/4anastasia/list/3MNTTPATONZJB

[@4Anastasia]

You need to put towel in tray. Add small amount of water to cover towel. Add small pieces of jell wax into vase on top of ornaments. Cut it with scissors. In gloves. Vase must be dry. Preheat oven to 90 Celsius/ 194F Put vase on top of wet towel. Add hot water for few more centimeters. Keep it in oven till melts. (Time depends on size of vase, gel, oven etc) Lower your temperature to 50/60C or 122/149F Keep it in until bubbles are gone. Ones take out keep it in warm place for any left over bubbles to disappear.

[@lyndahollins2881]

Hi Anastasia, Can you use string lights inside of gel wax candles?

[@4Anastasia]

Lynda, no as you can burn string lights with hot gel wax. You can add it later. Ones gel is fully dried and cold:)

[@lyndahollins2881]

@@4Anastasia Thankyou :)

[@renalee9683]

How do you get the pearls to float, Anastasia..? Because as I know it, pearls usually sink to the bottom.

[@4Anastasia]

Hi Rena! Those pearls connected with clear wire. You don’t see it inside of wax but it makes it look like it’s floating. In description box I have link to everything I used so you can get similar ones!

I have a question I tried the gel wax on top of water method and when I light it it keeps crackling making a crackling sound

I didn’t have issues like this. But it should be fine unless if it does something else.

Gel wax name pls

[@staceyMH-pq2dx]

Hi, i want to make a candle for my dad as his mum passed away, my idea is to put an acrylic photo block inside the gel wax? And a angel next to it would this hold against the gel?

[@4Anastasia]

Hey! I’m so sorry to hear this. You might want to try out and put hot gel wax on acrylic photo and see if it won’t burn it. You always want to experiment before you do final candle. Hope that helps.

[@ayoola82]

Can resin ornaments be used in gel wax?

[@4Anastasia]

I have personally never used resin ornaments with gel wax. You want want to try to pour melted hot gel wax on resin ornaments before you do your candle to see what will happen to it. I always experiment before do something. 🙂

Hey! I would recommend to test it before using it. To make sure your resin ornament won’t melt in hot gel wax. Hope to helps!

How do you clean your gel wax pot to melt more wax?

[@4Anastasia]

Don’t use dishwasher. Because chemicals can stay on your pot or get on other pots, spoons etc. clean it by hand with dish soap.

[@monc7116]

@@4Anastasia I've tried washing by hand but the wax remains on the pot. I've also tried boiling water & leaving it to soak but still sticks. Do you have any other suggestions?

[@4Anastasia]

I use scrub brush with soap. It will live lines on your pot. But that’s why I have separate pot just for crafts. It’s ugly now because of scratches. You should have to repeat it few times to fully wash it off.

[@dixitadaga3012]

All the moulds used are of glass right? Or we can use plastic also?

[@4Anastasia]

Don’t use plastic vase. Gel wax is Extremely hot! I don’t even recommend to use plastic ornaments.

Ohh thank you 😊
