Did you know that you can easily make your own (scented) candles? Nice for the winter when the candles come out of the closet again, what about your own citronella candle in the summer against mosquitoes or just for a nice evening on the couch with a nice book. I'm happy to explain to you how you can make these yourself.

Supplies

• Glass or mold in which you want to make your candle
• 50 g soy wax
• A (cotton) candle wick
• approx. 2 ml essential oil of your choice*
• Optional: mica powder for some extra sparkle and/or gemstone chips
• Handy: Bain-marie melting pot
