Product Description

top10.pngA 10g block of solid candle dye is enough to colour 20 votive candles or 1KG of wax  - the usual allowance is 1g dye per 100g wax. Obviously, more dye gives a deeper colour.

Most dye names are self explanatory, however a few need a little description! Autumn Red is a rusty red. Windsor Red is a pinky red, strawberries come to mind! Midnight Blue is an extremely versatile dye, depending on how much you use will result in a pale blue candle or a deeper blue. Mixed with Meadow Green the blue is interesting, a sea blue/green depending on which dye you allow to dominate! Meadow green is a lovely apple green. Fuchsia is a bright purple/pink. 

All dyes can be blended when you are experimenting with colours, and they will all result in a deeper colour if a higher ratio of dye to wax is used. For example, for a really deep, rich red I blend 25% plum purple and 75% windsor red.

  1. Lavender dye

    Posted by Lucy on 21st May 2013

    I bought 10g of the lavender dye and it was sufficient to make 8 tea cup candles, in differing sized cups, using 1050g of wax. The colour is even, with a lovely creaminess, and just what I was after. As I wanted the shade to be the same across all of the cups, I took a bit of time to melt all of my wax in a couple of containers and then poured and stirred it together, to make sure the dye blended properly. I'm really pleased with the result and would use this colour again.

    I have now made candles in a bright pink, soft pink, turquoise, and cream. I enjoy every shade I have ordered so far, and the finish is perfect every time. I look forward to ordering different colours in the future. Always exciting everytime you try a new shade :D

    Good pigment providing excellent colour depth

  5. lovely colour

    Posted by Barbara on 13th Feb 2013

    the dye gives the wax a lovely creamy finish with very little product needed. It is easy to cut in little pieces when making small candles. I have also tried to mix it with some red dye and I got a lovely soft pink candle.

  9. Autumn red

    Posted by Sara on 17th Dec 2012

    When used it comes out a lovely Christmas red, perfect for Christmas gifts, and a little goes a long way.

  10. Lavender Dye

    Posted by Vicky Mason on 23rd Nov 2012

    I bought the lavender and lemon dyes - I've yet to try the lemon, but the lavender is lovely. Looks great in a tea cup. I bought it with lavender scent and I think it looks very pretty - I did mine quite pale as I wanted it to match the tea cup, so didn't want bright, and it's turned out really well.
