Making Sand Wax Candles For The First Time With My Husband (just for fun!)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

There was about an hour of footage for this video but I cut it down to 20 minutes because we had way too much banter back and forth but I still left some in 😅 Just for more information, we got the sand wax from California Candle Supply along with the dye jars and wick stickers. CDN 4 and 5 wicks were from Sixteen Seventeen. Strawberries and cream fragrance oil is from Candlescience, Fruit Loops fragrance oil is from The Flaming Candle. Fill Weight Indicator device was custom made from this Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/carpelink

Hi I have a question , can I use diffuser fragrance oil in candles instead of essential oil?

[@ovlogs525]

How was the scent throw?

[@nancy92792]

Chris is so funny. "You're giving away our secrets!" 😂 Love this kind of video!

[@Soulful_Spirit_Candle_Co]

I love you 2 working together, and watching your different styles / takes on the way you each do things 😅 Thank you both for this really fun video 🥰

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Thank you for watching, Leah! ☺️

[@TonicMercantile]

nice new setup, like the camera flow and focus on the work process. always nice to have some helping hands too! great video!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Thank you so much! :)

[@cbpapp]

Hey Mama and Dada! I still use your formulation to calculate how much wax and FO I use for my vessels! This looked fun to watch, so thank you both! Much love to you both and your growing family!❤️

[@debt5734]

I love it!!!! Chris was just going for it😂three colors!!! Made me laugh! I would have been like you Erica, just starting out with one, thank you for this fun video

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Yess he wanted to do even more complicated than that but I talked him out of it 😆😆❤️

[@rainesonne1320]

Loved watching you guys together making candles!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Thank you for watching! ☺️

[@kristaransbottom6765]

Might it have been easier to mix the fragrance before separating for dyes?

[@ellefarrelly-xg3xd]

Couple goals! 😍😂 You had me laughing (in a good way) throughout this video. Love you two! This made my day :)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Aw thanks so much, Elle! So glad you enjoyed it!

[@Owa24]

For a beginner is there a calculator somewhere that can be used when making candles that can help if you not sure and I never heard off a sand candle before so this different but how would you post them lol since it’s sand

[@tonyrodriguez1195]

I was so glad to see that you did a video with this wax. I purchased it a couple of months ago and was going to get to it sometime soon. I did like you idea with letting it be loose giving it that all natural look. The hot and cold throw was impacted with that setup but I'm curious if an additional percent of F/O would fix that. What do you think?

[@mydaymimo4321]

Thanks for sharing such informative videos... hope u will bring more ***

[@lynnthomas8848]

I’m wondering if he got a better scent throw because he packed his?

[@coriOcean]

wondering the same. did you find out?

[@Level_Up_Nation]

I just ean across this Wax Pearl stuff, was wondering how to add fragrance to dry wax ect, do you sell a lot of them? How does shipping thos work? I wonder if MICA powder would work in is this stuff 🤔🤔

[@geishagrrrl1]

Totally love your channel and Wade at Black Tie too as you both are so transparent and helpful to all. Thank you so much for these beautiful and fun ones.💖 What modification would you recommend to get a great hot throw with the your creation, and also what would recommend to lessen the flame on Chris's too? Excited to see more always.

[@christinasanabria1734]

I love you guys trying this together how fun!!!! You guys are funny. He is like…. You need to do this I’ll do better then you😂😂😂😂

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

We always have fun doing things together! ☺️😅❤️

[@christinasanabria1734]

He did awesome on his! My husband would be so lost. He is active but not in making he is behind the scenes lol

[@MisterWhatWhat]

This is the oddest wax I've ever seen, yet still so cool. I just know that my 12 y/o would love to work with this instead of the regular way. She hates waiting for the wax to melt and cool, and she definitely hates cure times.

[@hilaryquinn8673]

Fun! I saw an add for this sand wax and was dubious. Looks like it worked for you! Did the strawberries & cream, tunnel?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

No not at all! It actually burned so well in the first burn I was impressed 😅 but the HT just wasn’t there unfortunately!

[@btilmflix]

Hi, where to buy this sand wax?

[@a_h_almazroueialmazrouei-zc4je]

What time does the scented candle need to be used after making? Can I use it after several hours or weeks?

[@lisamcconnell9657]

So overall what is your thoughts on the sand wax? Was u satisfied with it or did u decide its not a gd wax to use

[@meekdevaserenitycandles9309]

Exciting 🎉🎉🎉. What’s the diameter of that 13 oz vessel?

[@samarysp4895]

how can we deliver the sand wax , won't be all messy in the glass 😅

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You can hit the top with a heat gun to seal it :)

[@rekkahwilliams9525]

I saw this at Micheals today and thought about it maybe it’s a sign

[@cw2672]

You and your husband are so funny 😆

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

😂❤️

[@frankiecindy2012]

I am beginner. Can I use Soy-wax or Beeswax to produce sand wax by myself ？Thanks

[@coriOcean]

any luck?

[@haritinasakova4327]

Just a simpler math: 180×0.06=10g of fragrance, so 170g of wax 0.06=6%

[@NoStressVanLife]

I came to say this lol

[@lynnthomas8848]

My only concern with palm wax is that it is sustainably sourced. Palm is a major cause of deforestations. That said. My mind went immediately to a “Make your own” kid booth. How fun would that be??

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I know what you mean! I don’t think I would choose palm wax for my candles as a business, but doing this was a fun experience! Also Honestly I don’t have the patience to work with color/dye so I have a lot of respect for makers that use color in their candles! 😅

[@babyg2cc2]

Harvesting of palm wax has drastically changed thanks to The Roundtable of Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). Many suppliers only sell palm wax that has been ethically sourced.

[@lynnthomas8848]

@@demcj and I don’t use cargil for that reason!

[@JK-zz4ip]

Soy is also very bad for deforestation and destroying animal habitat. I wish we could get canola wax in North America.

[@lynnthomas8848]

@@JK-zz4ip look for US sourced Soy

[@AngelynneDiamante]

Can someone please help me , can I use diffuser fragrance oil in candles?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I would only recommend using fragrance oil designed for candles, in candles

[@AngelynneDiamante]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thank you

[@bernadettenb]

Hi, what kind of wax

[@1idontwantausername]

Bummer the strawberries and cream fragrance is weak! UGH I just ordered a bottle a few days ago with high hopes. Hopefully it works ok in wax melts if not candles.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Oh please don’t take this as it’s a weak oil! I still plan on doing more testing in it with my regular combo of jars, wax and wicks! There could have been many factors that attributed to the weaker HT that didn’t have to do with the oil itself

[@1idontwantausername]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo coincidentally my CS order just got here a few minutes ago, with the strawberries and cream FO. I am going to try it in wax melts and room spray first.

[@reginawallace2687]

That’s so beautiful but I feel it will be a lot of work when you are doing it In more quantities

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I feel the exact same way! 😅

[@spencerwong4464]

DON'T USE PALM WAX! RESPECT THE Orangutans!!
