[@SimplyFelisa]

I started making candles when I was on maternity leave with my daughter in 1995! Since then, it’s always been my go to stress reducer and spares those around me from having a flip flop thrown at their heads LOL! Candle Making saves lives!!

[@MamaLuv75]

lol 🥰

[@SexyChoclateThunder]

I love making candles because it helps me soothe the feelings in my soul that often times I cannot express in words. I love to set off a mood that is unmatched. A candle isn’t just a candle for me, it’s an experience. And making them is almost like telling a story, from having lights dimmed to Jazz music playing in the background to dancing alone or with a loved one while in the process of making them there’s a story and happy moment that’s comes along with each candle I make. Even for test candles lol. It’s like I’m watching myself before the dream comes true of having my own candle business and it makes me smile by itself to know maybe one day I’ll sell some candles and other people will buy them and love them just as much as I do. That’s the reward in itself for me! Anything after that is a plus.Just another person picking up on good vibes. I am a new candle maker (1 month in) and the joy I get from learning interesting facts about how to make a candle down to the science(math) it involves, it actually makes me realize I have more strengths than weakness and I can do anything I dedicate myself too. I’ve mastered math because of just how dedicated I was to learning how to do this. That’s one subject I ran away from my whole life!! Candle making has taken me out of a huge depression I sunk in and lifted my spirits into a safe place. Where I can now let another creative side of me shine through. I used to be in stores for hours smelling and buying candles and filling up cabinets with them, and now I’m making them myself and for a future business. The joy is being able to make something ive always loved to own, to something I can make for myself. Ive learned so much from KZbinrs like yourself and being encouraged by people who are just as passionate about this as me. That makes me extremely happy. I really love your content it’s very soothing.I subscribed yesterday and watched and liked everything because your content is really good! Very informative, detailed and refreshing. Keep up your awesome work and keep the videos coming. I can’t wait to see you live with my all time favorite supplier wooden wick co! You rock from one candle maker to another!🕯❤️🕯

[@HawthornCompany]

Hey babe! You won! DM me on IG @hawthorncompany

[@Asset80]

I love making candles because its fun I feel like a mad scientist.

[@ToriannaJazel]

This would literally be everything I need to get my business on its feet ! I love making candles it is super therapeutic for me!

[@ElenaMerrell]

Ooooh !!! I'm so excited for this! Your videos have been so helpful while getting started in my adventures in candlemaking! After losing my job to covid at the beginning of 2020, I started making candles as a hobby, just to stay busy (I was driving my bf up the wall re-arranging and deep cleaning our house with all the free time I had!). I realized pretty quickly after how much joy and sense of purpose it brought me. It's really cool to try and match a scent to a mood, a moment of nostalgia, or a favorite song (try burning white sandalwood + smoke and listening to Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here"). Now I hope to start my own business as a way to help support my family while also being able to set a schedule that allows me to be more available to them day-to-day.

[@jessb1435]

When I discovered my love of candlemaking, it felt like I was coming home. It's profoundly changed my life for the better. It is outstanding to me the range of talent, graciousness, unwavering support, and extraordinary kindness, the entire maker community consists of. I'm forever and always grateful.

[@keyannaharper3916]

Making candles has been a person stress relief, which I start my stress meltdown like the candle wax. Who knew a holiday fun gift idea would turn into something I love to do. It makes my family happy to see me do something I love ❤️

[@leishnalysantiago794]

I'm a FT Medical Technologist, so I've always loved science and everything related. I see the candle making process as my own research project on how to perfect something. I also love candles and everything scented, so it was like the perfect getaway from "reality". Now planning on converting it to a business. I love your studio and the way you show your process, it's been for sure a big inspiration for me, so thanks.

[@cbpapp]

If you like to be able to write on your tester strips, Rustic Escentuals has wider testing strips. They are SO much easier to write on. I’ve tried several WW fragrances and for the money I’m spending, I EXPECT a strong throw. I use their vessels, but know I can spend the same amount of money with other suppliers of luxury FO’s and get more bang for my buck. Thank you for this video. I have combined coco ap and 486. I’m on to mixing other waxes. I love learning new wax combos! Many blessings and much love to you! Beautiful studio by the way!!

[@cbpapp]

20% is the boosting wax is the perfect percentage if you’re mixing waxes. I evidently watched this another time! Your videos are so soothing. Testing never stops does it? However, I get really excited when I blend 2 FO’s and come up with a new FO! I’ve been blending waxes for awhile and it really does help with my CT and HT! Thank you for sharing this video, Sweetie!

[@jasmineblount1007]

I love making candles because they give me peace of mind after a long day of taking care of kids. I needed to come up with a business that my kids can look at as fun and also be proud of doing. Im taking a risk of not having a job just to be on our own and become my own boss. It scary cause you have so many fears of failing. This what i need to do a luxury candle line.

[@emilypeterson3758]

I love to make candles as gifts for loved ones. It’s a great way to show someone you care!

[@susandelancey8874]

Your studio is beautiful! I am receiving my first order of WW apricot soy wax this week 😊. I am interested in working with the blend you are sharing here. Also, am going to try mixing the WW FOs for new scents! I love making candles because it is relaxing and fun and I enjoy the challenge of creating a perfect beautiful candle with an amazing scent and HT!

[@Fchgcgguj]

Oooh my how awesome! Would this be never even had the opportunity to smell or use such luxurious scents. I love your aesthetics.

[@Mariana-yk1hq]

I really liked this video because, I am just starting to make candles. I really like how she used the wooden wicks with the golden tins for the candles they look really cool. Another thing I liked about this video was that she mixed up the fragrances with other fragrance sents for the candles to try something new !

[@kimberlysperry1484]

Congratulations on your 1k subscribers!! I have been at this candle business for a bit now and still love to learn more your videos are great!! Enjoying your journey!!! I started by making cupcake candles of all things!! I had no idea what I was doing and under wicked most of them🤦‍♀️I didn't even measure my FO!!!! I've come along ways since then(I think so any ways) no more cupcakes!!

[@loriblunt5352]

Congratulations on your 1k 😁 I started making candles with my daughter a couple months ago and we always have so much fun with the fragrances, waxes, and other items in our candles. I am learning so much. Thank you😁🤗

[@Niquah05]

I enjoy making candles and learning from candle creators like yourself. I never knew my love for candles would turn into my first entrepreneurial venture. Currently, I am in the process of launching my business this year once I’ve perfected my craft! 🤗

[@Omayra2212]

I loved burning candles before loving MAKING candles. For me, it all started with the challenge of learning something new and use my creativity. That's how Candle Hugs and Co. was born. THANK YOU for sharing all your knowledge. Loving your videos!

[@latonyadanner8759]

Candles are the bomb digity plus im a beginner and so far im loving the process and i liking watching you!

[@ciaomamabella]

Excellent video. Thank you so much for your lab notes! I’m currently selling herbs + petals alone and it smells like a beautiful home mix on its own. I’m ordering your suggestion of Calabrian lemon and lilac leaves to try it out!

[@thatsjustdandy]

Is there an update on the wax blend you tried? Also do you have the link for those cabinets in the back your Aura's are in? The link you posted for it takes me to nothing....

[@velvetpetalsvp]

You are awesome for sharing such in depth knowledge from your perspective. I love your description of the fragrances. I was thinking of what to add to my business and something I could make and brand. Candle making fell on my lap 🤗. It would make my day to get a starter kit that contains pieces I actually lean towards.🙏🏽

[@TheLazyEntrepreneur891]

I love making candles because it's a great mental escape for me and leaves my home smelling amazing. I also love creating and can't wait to combine my love for candle making with my love of writing. SN: I love Cashmere + Vanilla! I mix it with 2 non WWC scents and it's delightful. It almost smells like a perfume. I can't wait to try that new chocolate scent you paired with it!

[@colettejordan8974]

I’ve always loved burning candles and it wasn’t until the pandemic hit that I realized I loved making candles... here’s the back story. With so much forced time home I found myself “empty” and needing to fill that emptiness. Hmmm what do I love? Seafood but not really into cooking for others. Wine however not wanting to be a connoisseur. Candles hmmm possibly so did some research bought a kit made some candles and fell in love. I find it relaxing even the “stressful times” I’m enjoying this ride. Creating scents, designing labels sniffing my curing candles lol I just love it all. Regardless if I ever win anything or not I love expressing my joy with making candles. Thank you for this video, I love learning all things candles

[@alexisjones4754]

Heyyy I love your videos and content btw and your soft voice lol , I love making candles because it’s very therapeutic for me on top of my obsession with candles, I’m still perfecting my craft but I’m excited to be on this candle making journey and I can’t wait to launch.

[@felicia6608]

Are you still mixing the coco apricot with the sp-487? Interested in how it turned out.

[@michaelcantu868]

Great video looking forward to hear how your candles performed with the SP wax.

[@LiveLoveBritt]

Super excited about this giveaway! Love your channel :)

[@yayarobles673]

Loved your video! What your doing is really awesome. I started making candles for family members just for fun and I feel it's so relaxing for the home. I had leukemia for a while a while and after remission it was my relaxation outlet. Your fun to watch, much success to you. I love candle making!

[@HawthornCompany]

Oh wow you are a fighter!! Much love to you ♥️. I’m happy you were able to find something you love doing 😍

[@nallelykoehler6795]

Congratulations on +1K subscribers!!! This is too excited, and maybe just maybe it could be the first candle I make and also a good git for my husband :) Good luck everyone!

[@s________]

I love making candles because it takes me back to high school science lab. I also love problem solving and the feeling that I get when someone tells me how good my products are. Great scent combos. I can't wait until you burn these!!

[@thisbeautifullifeofmine]

Love watching this video and learned so much about candle making, my favorite part is the fragrance information..

[@HawthornCompany]

Thanks for being here 🙏🏻♥️ glad I could help!

[@cru5124]

I'm new to candle making. Recently had a heart attack followed by triple bypass surgery. Fell in love with the creativity. I enjoy your videos so much. You provide great information.

[@BurningParradise]

Candle making has been so helpful for me in these stressful times. It’s such a fun hobby I’m glad I picked up. It’s so fulfilling creating something that I enjoy and able to gift to others. This kit would be so helpful! 🤍🤞🏽

[@P_bee]

Watching your videos is so relaxing while being so informative at the same time! I love it! I love making candles because in the long run it’s cheaper and higher quality than buying. I just make to gift :)

[@jennthevirgo]

Thanks for sharing. ❤ I'm going try the cardamom tea + grapefruit with the santal + black cardamom. I have tried egyptian linen + lavender buds with oud patchouli + resins together for my sister, she loved it. I have also tried palo santo + sage with sage + lavender! I have less than a pound of cac left. I may as well try this blend lol.

[@HawthornCompany]

Oh my god!! I never thought of trying Lavender buds with oud patchouli, I should try it too 😍

[@jseek2512]

Yay! I love this:) I love making candles and especially fooling my kids and husband with my dessert candles. Ooh look at that pie I'm going to get a slice, nope it's fake hahaha. Seriously it's relaxing just like soap making. Have been curious to try this blend of wax, just been out of stock everywhere

[@minas6241]

So happy I stumbled on your channel! You have inspired me to start making candles, thank you🙏🏻♥️

[@HawthornCompany]

That’s amazing 😍 and I’m super excited for your journey!!

[@tinapeacock2946]

Okay, Jess, I love that we think alike in SO many ways! The same things you are addressing are things ONCE AGAIN (ugh!) I'm actively (re) addressing in my biz, and tweaking because wax supply is not what it was 8 months ago! (or 6 right? haha). I was feeling so alone in this and I can't thank you enough for your videos. Thanks for walking us through your process, because I personally love the science and troubleshooting of it all ( i love to look at things from every angle) and my business partners are always like--stop! It's good -it's GREAT let's GO! And while they are right --it's good, I want GREAT and streamlined and consistent etc! Tina @Shadow and Glow (Clermont)

[@HawthornCompany]

Yaaas totally the same for me 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 it’s “good” but I want perfection 😂 I don’t think I’ll have perfect candles for launch, but I’ll continue working on them. I think we put too much pressure on ourselves for perfection (I sure as hell do). This shortage has seriously pushed me back months of work, it’s insane, I’ve had to switch waxes 3 times

[@YvonneC47]

Started out as a hobby. Now I'm obsessed with making candles!

[@NicollySousa3]

Hi! Have you found with wooden wick co that some fragrances perform better than others at different temperature?

[@sheizm888]

I would love to try this, But I have no bribe game, I just love your style and never heard of these waxes until I saw your Channel but I love selenite. You make candle making look like it could be super sweet & fun! 💝

[@sandeevarela6522]

I started making candles as a therapy I battle anxiety. It’s been my outlet. I bring awareness to the Mental health community. My husband was super onboard because he says I don’t drive him “crazy” anymore 😂😂😂😂😂 so it’s a win win. happy wife happy life right! 😬

[@CandleHouseLane]

When you blended your sp487 with your CAC wax, did you have to increase the thickness of your wooden wicks from a .02 to a .03 or was the .02 enough? I know this video is a few years old now but have you tweaked it since or have it basically stayed the same since then? Thank you

[@feleciag.neliasstitchesrob2076]

I love making candles bc it makes me happy to have a good smelling house and for others as well. Thanks so much for the opportunity!

[@TuAmorCheyenne]

Are you melting the waxes together?

[@ssears715]

Hi hun! First off I cannot thank you enough for all of the beautiful content you so graciously share...you are truly an inspiration :) Since I can remember I've been obsessed with anything pertaining to scents particularly candles (just the thought oooh la la). While the business aspect of it has crossed my mind for years now I finally mustered up the courage to take a leap of faith and just DO IT like NIKE! To be quite honest due to the candle supply shortage and this being a new business venture I have not been able to purchase any wax or necessary supples just to make one little candle, however I have such a deep connection with candles that that I feel as though I've made a ton of candles...the very thought alone brings me pure bliss...If I were to to win the kit this would allow me to quite literally make my very first candle.

[@ssears715]

BTW did I mention I also live in Tampa? Haha wink wink ;)

[@debbiewoten9403]

I just started making candles for myself and to give to family and a few friends just because. I like surprising them. I love making candles and trying different scent combos just to see how they turn out. So far only one didn't smell good, it smelled like burning dirt.

[@jessicakhoshaba4851]

Would love to win this I just got into candle making and I’m having such a hard time getting the wax and fragrance correct. But not giving up. I’ve been wanting to purchase the coco apricot creme wax but it’s still sold out ! So this would be so great. I love your aesthetic so much. Keep up the great work !

[@Star-eyes7]

I’d like to live in America just to make candles! We have so many regulations here, (UK) for selling. So we can’t mix fragrance oils, without sending them to be tested which costs lots. Same with essential oils. You can only sell them if you buy a companies already mixed, regulated, oil with their safety data sheets, CLP warnings for labels, and Max 10% fragrance load. Basically everything has to be tested if you want something unique. Same with soap, in-fact that’s harder. Anything you add to a soap base has to be sent for testing. It just adds loads of extra money. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@anastasiahounnou]

Hello! Thank you for the video! I’m just wondering the results? I’m struggling right now trying to figure it out and I’d love to see if it works 😊

[@yvettebooth67]

Love the scent blends. Congrats on 1k subscribers. 👏🏼❤.

[@HawthornCompany]

Thank you so much!

[@mspperson]

Whew Chile! I loved the video. I love your spirit and calmness. I know that candle making is not for the faint of heart, and when I don’t get the results that I intend, I don’t take it so well. I would love to win the WW box because honestly, I could not afford it myself. Thank you for your videos.

[@se9535]

Love your studio set up! Did you add the glass doors on your white tall shelves behind you?

[@justinnunn814]

Amazing video. Question with the SP487 wax. Do you still do 9% FO with wooden wick or decrease to 8%?

[@mykelharrison2178]

Hey! Amazing videos, first off - you're so helpful thank you! I was wondering if you could elaborate on mixing with sp 487. As far as how much power lb, and would it be beneficial if I'm using virgin coconut soy from WW? I'm not impressed with the hot throw I'm getting, and considering testing with vybar 260. I'm also using aura vessels from WW and am soo lost on wicking. Currently I'm running all kinds of tests, including double wicking with cd4, and going down from .03/.625 wooden wick to the. 02 because like you said it was burning too hot and I was having way too much soot. I'm interested in blending with sp487 if you think it could help my HT as well a wicking issues. Thank you so much in advance!

[@abbiedavies9773]

I have just started my small candle business with my family and your videos really help!

[@JaJa123_]

Hello if you don't mind me asking where do you get your candle jars from?

Hi 😊 I loved your video!! I want to try and make candles, I did not pour any yet! Thank you for the info you are providing🙂 .

[@keychevis4028]

I just started making candles and your videos have been very hopeful. You inspired my organization also

[@silverborne2811]

I love making candles because of the challenges and opportunity for a creative outlet it provides. I really enjoy testing out new waxes and fragrance oils. One reason I would love this kit as I’ve had the opportunity to try very few Wooden Wick products.

[@pattyhansen8394]

This was the first time I found your channel and I absolutely love everything you have done! Why would I love to win the giveaway?...because I would love to see my husbands GIANT smile when I could tell him that these candle supplies were free!!! haha! (just getting started and in the buying lots of supplies and testing phase) Now subscribed and I will continue watching! :)

[@whippdjawn2970]

I discovered that I really enjoyed making candles when I decided to stop smoking marijuana due to my anxiety and refusal to be on medication for it. Long and personal story but I suffer for PTSD which causes my anxiety and marijuana was working great for me wasn’t an avid or daily smoker but it also wasn’t really my thing (doctor’s recommendation) after I refused meds. But candle making has brought me so much peace and relaxation it’s great and the sound of the crackling wooden wick is so soothing and awesome to listen to during meditation and breathing exercises.

[@arthurskye]

Congratulations!!!!I love making candles because it allows me to have a small business at home. I dont have to find a job, earn doing what i love and see every growth of my 3yr old with my own two eyes

[@DiannePhD-JD]

How did that candle turn out with the SP487 mixed with Coconut Apricot Creme`? HT/CT?

[@angelscakes1850]

So how was your update on this blend ? Was the HT better with this blend?

[@thatsjustdandy]

I am wondering the same thing....

[@aamccarthy]

Making candles is a means of escape for me while also creating something beautiful and aromatic.

[@scottward7415]

Love making candle there are so many things you can do with wax

[@casssandrarobinson6433]

How many finished candles in the aura vessels will your cabinet hold? (Weight considered)

[@TuAmorCheyenne]

I just bought some of this vegetable wax! I’m so exciting to try blending with my Coco Apricot. Would you still use the Crackling Booster: .02 Wood Wicks?

[@ASihr-kp8pp]

Does their fragrances still smell as strong because ever since they rebranded to Makesy, their fragrances don’t smell as strong in candles anymore

[@olinemy]

Hello!! Just wondering where can I find the sp487, any link??? Thank you!! Love your channel!

[@amyr6060]

I love making candles because it allows me to combine my artsy and nerdy side. People don’t realize the science and testing that go into the process!! And I love math...candle math is fun lol

[@amyhollar6104]

I love making candles because it is so much fun to create something of my own that can bring a smile to someone. I have always found that candles can make people feel good when they smell a favorite scent. Thank you for the chance to win!

[@youragentforlife]

How did the 487 blend with your coco apricot? Did you get good HT and CT with adding 20% 487?

[@sepia7382]

Have not started making the candles I dream of making because all my $ has been going to moving. Once I settle down w a friend until I can find a place I hope to get started. I can really use the therapy at this time. Thank you 💕

[@lisawilson1891]

Why did you switch from Coconut 83 to Coconut Apricot Wax?

[@shaquannasellman6300]

Thanks Jessica! Will there be another video on how the candles smelled when they burned?

[@HawthornCompany]

Yes! I made a new batch with 11% FO. 8% was okay and 9% was better, but I want them stronger. When I burn test the 11% I’ll do a video ♥️

[@lykawalton1891]

I love making candles because I wanted to channel my energy into something challenging but creative.

[@aliyarenee5228]

Since Covid, I have been using candle-making as part of my self care regimen (I love the process of making something with my own hands)! Once my candles are ready, I lock myself in the bathroom, light the wick and let the scent take me away from the demands of being a wife, mom & school director and take me to a much calmer and relaxing space. Being gifted this set would be a dream! Whether I win or not, thank you for being so generous to share this gift with us... you’re awesome! ❤️

[@abeecruz]

Where did u get your calculator?

[@margaretmelendez8203]

[@HawthornCompany]

Thank you so much 😍

[@cynthiamarie0o278]

I love making candles because it’s my mommy time. It’s like meditation to me 🤗

[@isabelpapagno1433]

Cannot find SP 487 wax anywhere. I tried SB 487 just in case but again..... nothing. The only thing I can find is the Soy Bliss. Is that what you were referring to? Also, would this combination also work better for tealights and 1 oz containers? thanks.

[@AmericanArtistry]

Omg! I just picked up SP487 on accident! Now I know what to try. I just started making candles. Haven't quite gotten it down. I've been struggling with fast burn off... this is awesome! I started doing candles because my husband loves, I mean LOVES candles and he loads up on them when he's gone on deployment. He buys a lot because the smell goes away fast. So I'm set on making him some that will last with a great throw the entire time he's on deployment. I have 3 weeks left to get it done! I'm going to try this recipe. I also ordered WW Opopanax + oriental musk to make for him all based on your last video reaction when you opened it to smell it. That alone sold me! And I'm definitely trying Egyptian linen + Lavender bud mix since I couldn't get a good scent throw.

[@HawthornCompany]

Ohhh you should do a 487 test and we can compare notes! It would be helpful/fun to hear someone else’s feedback on the blend. And girl yes 🙌🏻 the Egyptian and lavender combo is awesome. Also try it with wildflowers if you have it, it smells so good.

[@trendyposh3191]

Ok ladies where do you get these awesome waxes from? The sp487 from? I'm new and only tried WW coconut soy wax

[@trendyposh3191]

What is the difference between sp487 and 487?

[@AmericanArtistry]

I will do that. My new WW come in Saturday and I have my blend ready! I will let you know. So excited.

[@AmericanArtistry]

SP486 and S487 are available at www.swanscandles.com they are really awesome. We've gone a few times last month to pick up from him. Both SP waxes are harder waxes, SP487 is made more for pillar waxes and SP486 is a container wax. Both are vegetable waxes.

[@itsjustjoelle6640]

Loving your scent combos! :)

They turned out great! Hope the hot throw is good too though lol I guess we’ll see

I posted a question in a Facebook group about candles and you gave me the best advice. I immediately stalked your social and found this KZbin channel. I love what your doing and would love a chance to try ww brand. I placed an order back in December and still have not yet received it. With your quick shipping, if I win, it would be amazing to try and make candles with you! I love the studio! Hubby pick me! 😀😀😀

What camera set up do you use

Where did you purchase your calculator please?

Can I add paraffin wax to coconut apricot creme wax for a better hot throw ? If so what would be a good ratio to begin with?

[@sandyborrero9993]

Healing! It's one of the things that helped me and I wanted to share the benefits of fragrance on our spirits with others. So I had to start making them because my husband sees the bank statement every month 🙄 I love mixing the FOs, the glow of the flame is like meditation and the way candles just zen me out. I also recycle & reuse my vessels. Thank you so much for the generous giveaway. PS your studio ♥️ #oneday

I’d love to win this kit because you’ve truly inspired me to make candles. It’s so therapeutic and fun! And I think I should win because I’m also in FL 😜

I would like to know how they came out the burn test, the scent throw, for your recipes. Can you please do a second video

[@victoriam.2030]

Have u tried blending the Luxe Virgin Coconut wax I’m having issues trying to wick with wooden wicks

[@cindyhurlbert8740]

Omg! This calculator is amazing! Do you have a link For it?

[@aandmscentz]

Just curious was the 11oz the total weight including fragrance if so should you get 80%/20% of 10oz wax

[@HawthornCompany]

Yes that is correct!
