This kit contains everything you need (except basic kitchen equipment) to make 10 scented and coloured votive candles in two flavours with up to 15 hours burn time each. You can then reuse the moulds to make further candles using our low-cost refill kit.
Whichever you select, you can look forward to a home filled with a pleasant, relaxing aroma from a candle with a gentle, warm flame.
We've developed these kits by using them to create candles ourselves. Because of this, we know that all of our kits work reliably in the real world, producing excellent, consistent, results whilst being easy for beginners to use.
Our kits are not mass-manufactured, plastic toy kits: this is real candle-making equipment and ingredients aimed at people who want to learn how to do it properly. They also make the ideal gift to introduce a loved one to the creative world of candle making.
Unlike any other supplier, we include beeswax in our kits because this hardens your candles and makes them burn longer. It also makes the scent of the candle a little sweeter. Just add 10% beeswax to your paraffin wax to get the ideal mixture.

Each kit contains:
This kit includes 2 candle dyes and 2 scents so you can make a combination of variations. There is plenty of each to enable you to go on and make another ten candles just by buying some more wax, wicks and tabs.
The kit also includes a candlemaking thermometer so you can get the temperature exactly right for perfect results and 2 glass votive holders to display your finished creations.
This kit is packaged in a brown box containing fuschia tissue paper

I bought this for my girlfreind in our 1st anniversary as she wanted to make candles and it would be something we could do together. As beginners it was perfect. the instructions are very simple. Advice on the website helps alot. And now we are making candles for our freinds for christmas presents!! Couldn't ask for anything better!!

I bought this kit for myself and it really is a fantastic introduction to candle making! The instructions are very easy to follow and everything I need is in the kit. I have bought some extra moulds and have progressed to making 6 candles at a time and combining flavours - honey and vanilla being my favourite! The candles make great gifts - my friends love them as they smell amazing and the scent is consistent all the way through. I would definitely recommend this kit!!

I bought a deluxe kit for my son's 12th birthday, and we've just spent the afternoon making his first proper candles from it. We have used the "toy" kits before but yours are SO much better in all respects. We were both very impressed. The kit was great, everything you need is in the box, the instructions are really easy to follow and the finished product is lovely. Many thanks for your speedy service too.
