Thank you so much Stephen, glad you enjoyed! It’s a great way to use up leftover colored wax, and the results are always a pleasant surprise.

Yes, Genwax is great for candle supplies.

If you’re going to make candles, you’re going to have to know about wax. But where to start? What kind of wax do you use to make what kind of candle? Many candle makers swear by their favorite wax. The most important thing for a candle maker though, is that they understand the characteristics of their particular wax and the types of candles it can make.

If you are a beginner, select one type of wax and do your homework. Then experiment and work with it until you have it mastered. Carefully document everything you try so you can fine-tune your work after you have seen and tested the finished product.
