Not sure how I ended up here, but glad I found you. I liked learning about candle making and some of your techniques - - very impressed with string idea, nice work.

Hi! Fantastic to have a new video from you! I am a candle-holic too so keep the candle tutorials coming but looking forward to the jewellery vid too. Expensive wax but it turned out amazing so was worth it! 😊

Alright, that price wasn't even as bad as I was expecting! Certainly still opulent and over the top - but your final product is soooooo good! This is the first video of yours I've seen. You seem great, I'm definitely subscribing and will be happy to see whatever you get up to ☺️

[@simpleDIYs]

Aww yay! Welcome and thanks for subscribing!

How much fragrance did you use and what's the total size of that container? Sorry if you said and I missed it. Thanks for the vid!

[@simpleDIYs]

I used 16 ounces of fragrance oil for 10.33 pounds of candle wax. That’s about a 9% fragrance load (and most candles should be like 8-10%). Hope that’s helpful! I went into more detail about all the candle math I used in my blog post if you’re interested.
