Slow living at the end of summer - picking blackberries and tomatoes, spending golden warm evenings in the garden and making scented candles. I chose pumpkin spice, cinnamon and coffee this time - perfect scents to transition into autumn.
You will need:
500g wax
30ml fragrance oil
(Basically to any amount of wax you will need 6% of oil)
Another good rule is that you will need double amount of dry wax to the size of your container.
Melt wax gentle on a boiling water bath. Bring up to 80C/ 176F
Remove from the stove and let it cool to 65C/ 149F and then add your fragrance oils. Stir and wait until it cools down to about 40C/ 104F.
In the mean time prepare your candle jars. You can use any heatproof jars made out of glass or ceramic. Add candle wicks into the middle of the jar and secure in the centre.
Pour wax slowly into your prepared jars & wait for 24 hours before burning!

What I wear:
Little Cotton Wood (my favourite US based brand): [ Ссылка ]
This one I bought from a couple of times - not affiliate. They release limited collections seasonally and have very beautiful designs with good quality fabrics. Also more affordable than some other brands.
