Everything needed NOT included

by Ruffian from New York City, USA on 2009-11-20
The technical details for this product states "Kit contains everything you need to make your own soy candles." This is NOT true! The instructions which come with the kit clearly states "Additional Items NEEDED for (but NOT included in) this kit:" and gives a list of ridiculous items you would have to coincidentally own. Such as a hot glue gun, standard thermometer to stick IN the hot wax, a double boiler or electric griddle, melting/pouring pot and a scale. Keep in mind on top of needing the melting pot, the double boiler, and the thermometer and long handed ladle or spoon it requires you to have (but doesn't include for you).. you also have to be okay with using these items with hot wax, which is a miserable thing to try remove from anything, let alone in large quantities. So if you just happen to have the extra equipment it calls for lying around that you don't mind dedicating to hot wax, great. I personally do not want/plan to go to spend the extra time and money on this equipment specifically for what I thought would be a fun, easy, and convenient ready to use kit. Obviously a horrible choice for beginners.

Great Soy Candle Starter Kit W/Video - Highly Recommended!

by CFH from Blue Ridge Summit, PA USA on 2009-01-17
The Candles and Supplies "Soy Kit" is a great way to learn how to make Soy candles. My wife and I got the chance to use the kit last year and we were very impressed with how easy the kit made to make beautiful Soy container candles. We are experienced candle makers, but wish this kit was available when we were getting started.The kit includes the container wax, wicks, scent, dye, safety labels, instruction sheet, and instructional DVD. You will need your own pouring pot and miscellaneous equipment (thermometer, etc), which is detailed in the instructions and on the DVD. The instructional DVD also shows you exactly how to use the kit to get the best results.This kit is a great way to get started making candles as a hobby or side business as the skills you learn can be used to make other types of candles.Highly recommended!

Great for beginner candle makers!

by K. Karnstein from USA on 2008-07-07
This product is great if you are just beginning to think about making candles. With this wax you don't need to spend a great deal of money just to discover that you are unable to obtain beautiful candles. If you have what many houses today have - a microwave, a safe microwave container (maybe a measuring cup?) and a votive holder- you are almost there. You just need a candle thermometer CANDLEMAKING THERMOMETER-, some wick clips CANDLE WICK CLIPS 12/PKG-20MM, wick CANDLE WICKING BLEACHED-MEDIUM 6 FEET and this wax. If you are up for something more fancy, you can add color and scent, although they are not necessary.The wax comes in flakes, so you don't need to cut it. Just put any amount in the measuring cup, heat it on the microwave and wait for the correct temperature. Meanwhile, attach the wick and the clip to the bottom of the votive with a bit of hot glue. Then pour the wax in the votive holder and wait for it to harden. And you are all set! The result is a very nice looking candle. Of course, if you add a color, the result is even better.I have observed that when adding scent, the best ones to use are the liquid ones. They add a creamy texture to the finishing candle that the ones in block don't.

Great Start for Candlemakers

by Lisa Shea from on 2007-05-22
Microwaveable Soy Wax sounds like a great idea, and it certainly is a perfect way to get started with candlemaking. You get a 1 pound container of soy wax chips. You simply toss some into the microwave, melt it down, and then pour the wax into a candle-safe container with a wick. Voila, it hardens, and you have a candle.You can get the kit for $6 and from that you make about 3 medium sized candles. By default these candles have no odor and are milky white in color. You can add candle coloring and candle aroma to them easily enough. I only had soap coloring on me when I tested this out, and those didn't work at all :) So make sure you do use a candle color system. The soap coloring, which is liquid, just stayed suspended as tiny little balls and never affected the color of the liquid. I thought I might get a "dots of color" effect, but since the candle cools to a solid milky white, they became invisible.So, the process. You start with a bag of chips. It looks like a lot, but really this melts down into a very small amount of liquid.It only takes a minute or two, in a tupperware container, in the microwave to have this melting happen. I would set aside a tupperware just for candlemaking, rather than trying to clean the wax off of it to use it for food again. Once the wax is fully melted, it is a clear, yellowish liquid. You pour this into a candle-safe container, usually glass, but of course you can use pottery or other containers as you wish.Since the resulting candle is not translucent, your options for decorating are generally restricted to colors - or creating layers by making one color from part of the chips, then another from another set of chips, and pouring them in one at a time. You could ask if it's really worth it to pay $6 to create 3 candles, since you could buy them more cheaply, but really this is a great "practice kit". You learn how candlemaking works, and start to hone your artistic talents in an easy manner. The results make great gifts.Well recommended for someone interested in how candle making works.
