How to Make Aromatherapy Candles
Put some water in a double boiler and put it on the stove set on medium heat.
Fill a glass jar 3/4 full with chunks of candle wax.
Place the jar in the double boiler and continuously stir the wax until it is completely melted. This should take approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
Remove the wax from the boiler and add any oils and colors of your choice.
Place a wick in a container or mold and using a washer or a wick holder, tie the end of the wick to a pencil to hold it in place.
Carefully pour the hot wax into the mold. Do not fill to the top.
