Candles

I have this idea for unique scented items but I wanted to know how are the scents put into the items. Like what if I wanted to make lip balm or candles that smelled like fried chicken and mashed potatoes? (Not really but that sounds lovely.)

Im not sure how correct I am on this but my boyfriends aunt makes scented candles that smell really good. I think she buys the frangrances in a bottol from a craft store and mixes it in while shes melting the wax for the candles. You can probably find them at hobby lobby.

   I once saw lip balm made using vaseline and kool aid powder. You mix a littl of the kool aid drink mix in with the vaseline and it will not only scent it but flavor it as well.
