DIY Flowers of Spring Candle
If you're looking to add a touch of Spring to your home decor, creating a DIY Flowers of Spring Candle could be just the fun project you need! Enjoy the beauty and fragrance of spring all year round with your own homemade creation!
Ingredients
- Container for candle
- Beeswax
- Wick
- Wax melting pot
- Essential Oils (I used Melrose, Jasmine, and Lemongrass).
- Crafty embellishments – ribbon, flowers, etc.
Glue the wick onto the bottom of the container. Melt the wax in the melting pot. You will want approximately double the amount of wax as the size of the container.
Once the wax is completely melted, remove from the heat and add Essential Oils. I like to use a ratio of 3-2-1. Three times the primary fragrance, then two times the secondary, and one of the bottom fragrance. So for example, approximately 60 drops of Melrose, 40 drops of Jasmine, 20 drops of Lemongrass.
It’s not an exact science to mix the oils. I experiment first by laying them out and smelling them together before deciding on the final mix. Once you add them to the melted wax, just use your nose to get it right! You may want to use more or less and that is totally fine.
Embellish with a ribbon and flower, burlap, or whatever says “spring” to you!
It takes a while for the wax to melt, but other than that, it’s really not a difficult process.
