This is seriously the most fun you’ll ever have making candles. The combinations of coloured micas, dyes, fragrance and candle jars are limitless.

Be prepared to let your inner creative out of the box. The Queen song "Don’t stop me now" comes to mind when I start to think of what I can do with paraffin wax candles.

If you love coloured candles, then this is the perfect wax to kick off your new projects.

Brands like MOR use paraffin wax and have the most splendid array of colours in their range. It is often sold or marketed by the big brands as scented candle wax rather than listing it as paraffin wax. Bottom line is, if you see candles out there that have amazing colours, it's paraffin wax, as no other wax that is able to hold colour the same as refined paraffin wax.

There are a few things that you need to be aware of when making paraffin candles, and I have outlined them HERE with the instruction guide.

Pure Refined Paraffin Wax - No Additives

Excellent Hot Throw: When burning paraffin wax candles, the fragrance in the air is amazing and quickly fills a room.
High Fragrance Load Allowance: Paraffin wax will give you a much better bang for your buck with fragrance, as it requires less fragrance than other waxes, but it's much stronger while burning. A paraffin wax candle with a fragrance load of 4 - 6% usually covers a room within 15-20 minutes of burning.
High Color Range: Paraffin wax is completely colourless, so it is an incredibly versatile candle wax. This is where it gets super exciting as it means you can make candles of any colour using candle dyes.
Great Adhesion: Paraffin wax is perfect for making clear or coloured candles in clear glass as the adhesion can’t be matched with any other candle wax.
Blends Well: It is common in large scale manufacturing to blend soy wax and or coconut wax with paraffin wax as the benefits of increased fragrance throw, superior adhesion and increased burn times due to the hardness of paraffin wax can be obtained with blending waxes.
Fully Customizable: Paraffin wax is versatile, and can be used for making all candles, decorative candles like pillar candles, tealight candles, jar candles, etc.

Mother's Day Candles

We made candles with my class to celebrate Mother's Day. The kids loved working with the wax, it was super easy and looked fabulous in the little tea cups.
