how do you get a pillar candle to stick to a plate?

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

i don’t have a candle holder for my pillar candles and i know there’s a way to get them to stay upright on a plate, but for the life of me i cannot find anything that tells me how.

I’m probably way off here but I cannot imagine why you would be having trouble getting pillar candles to stay upright. Those are the ones with the wide base, the ones for which you don’t need a holder.
Please, please, tell me you aren’t trying to make TAPERS stand upright without a holder!!!

Yes, you can make a taper stand up by dripping the wax and it can look really cool but they require constant supervision and can be dangerous. The wax starts to get soft and they will fall.
For tapers use a shot glass or a blueberry tin or a even a bowl, scrunch up a bunch of aluminum foil inside to hold it properly.

The Sky is the Limit: Candle Making Ideas

The Sky is the Limit: Candle Making Ideas

There are many candle making ideas in books, online and in magazines. The variations on the different types of candles are almost limitless. Depending on the type of candle being made, there are different options to play with, from shape, color, fragrance or design.

Shape

Different types of candles inherently have different shapes. When looking for great candle making ideas, the first place to start is in the type of candle. Votive candles are small candles, so they do not provide as many options in design or color patterns. They are great candles to do in brilliant colors and also to experiment with different fragrances. There can also be some shape experiments too, but that moves more into the pillar type of candle.

Pillar candles

Pillar candles are the most viable option for experimenting with new candle making ideas since they tend to be larger. Pillar candles can be made in any shape that you can make a candle making mold to hold it. They can also be any size, so the options are limitless. Since there is more surface area, there can also be different colors and designs within a single candle.

Color

There are many different candle dyes and charts that can assist a candle maker with candle making ideas. With the development of gel wax, there is also the option of placing figures, colors and patterns within a clear wax so that they can be seen ‘floating’ within the candle. Crayons are also a fun option to explore in creating colored candles, and it also gets rid of those little bits of crayons that everyone hate to throw away, yet are not seemly useful for anything. Now they are!

match the color of the candle to the season

Another candle making idea is to match the color of the candle to the season of the year or the person to whom it is being given. Bright red and green might work at Christmas, whereas a more subdued copper and golden yellow is more appropriate in the fall. Springtime may evoke some pastel colors and winter the more earthy hues.

Fragrance

There are also many fragrances to choose from when coming up with candle making ideas. A candle maker can stay as simple as using the vanilla that she has on her kitchen shelf, to buying specific fragrances such as blueberry or strawberry to spice up her candles’ scents. Scents can also be matched to seasons of the year, such as ocean spray for summertime or pumpkin pie for fall.

The Main Event Episode 72 Citronella

Monday, June 28th, 2010

There are many fragrance options available for keeping the bugs away. Citronella is a common choice that can be used in many different shapes and sizes. Citronella tealights, votives and pillar candles can be used in decorative candle holders to create beautiful arrangements that are also functional.

For those that don’t like the scent of citronella, other essential oils can be used to keep bugs at bay. Way Out Wax uses lemongrass, rosemary and geranium oils in their Geranium Bug Out candle, available in both a 2-wick tin and spray. Their Original fragrance uses lavender, tea tree and neem essential oils also with 100% soy wax in a 2-wick tin or spray. For those that like the scent of citronella, Way Out Wax combines it with hemp seed oil in their Hemp Citronella 2-wick candle.

As an alternative to citronella candles and sprays, a Lampe Berger lamp can be used with their Summer Night fragrance oil to keep bugs away. Lampe Berger lamps are easy to use and there is no smoke or flame while they are working.
