2. Prepare an area for the
candles to be poured by
placing newspaper or large
sheets of paper over a firm
and flat surface.
Step 1

3. Place the glue dot on
the bottom of the metal
sustainer of the pre-
wick.
Step 2

4. Place the metal sustainer
of the pre-wick in the
center of the tin, and press
down to help secure it to
the bottom.
Step 3

5. Empty the 1 lb. bag
of soy wax into the
pouring pot.
Step 4

6. Heat the soy wax by placing the
pouring pot into a large pot of
water that has been brought to
a boil. This will create a double
boiler; don't place the pouring
pot on direct heat.
Step 5

7. Heat the soy wax until it is
completely melted. Once the
wax is melted, place the
thermometer in the wax to get
a temperature reading.
Step 6

8. Add shavings from the dye blocks
until you achieve the desired color.
(Candle will set up lighter then
what shows in the pot at 150°F.)
Mix thoroughly, until all shavings
are completely melted in the wax.
Step 7

9. Allow the soy wax to
cool to 140°F, and add
the fragrance. Use 1 oz.
of fragrance per 1 lb. of
soy wax.
Step 8

10. Once the fragrance is added,
pour the melted wax into the
candle tin. Fill the tin until the
wax reaches the groove in the
tin, about ¼" from the top.
Step 9

11. Once the candles are poured, take
the bow-tie clip and place the top
of the pre-wick through the center
of the hole of the bow tie clip and
secure it in the groove. Allow
candle to completely cool.
Step 10

12. Once the candle is completely
cooled, trim the wick to ¼"
and place the burning-
instruction label on the
bottom of the tin.
Step 11

13. Allow the candle to sit for at
least 24 hours before lighting.
