Successful Candle Making at Home in Time for Christmas

What on earth am I doing thinking about successful candle making at home in time for Christmas!

CHRISTMAS! If you can't beat them join them?

You may not know this, no, not candle making, but Christmas 2009 started in August in the North of UK in a small Town near Rochdale called Milnrow, where I happen to have been born incidentally.

The Town's residents even made it onto the National news for being the first place in the UK to start off the Christmas festivities, well, hang the Xmas decorations in the streets and put all manner of decoration in shop windows etc.

It all looked very festive even if they started Christmas off rather early this year.

Yet, as the kids get back to school, daylight hours decline and nights start getting colder, most of us start thinking of Christmas.

About now is when I normally start lighting candles in the evenings for their warm glow and therapeutic aroma benefits. Makes us feel all warm and comfy at home.

I love candles and buy plenty of them, especially in autumn and winter. I also save the ends, call me thrifty, as commercial candles never burn to the end. I'm sure they gauge them to stop burning early so that you have to go buy more candles from the store!

Why save wax candle ends?

I save the wax candle ends to that I can start candle making at home, in time for Christmas of course.

When I have a suitable collection of wax candles, I melt them down. I'm not too precious about the colour mix or aroma mix, although I tend to make sure the mix is fairly complementary so as not to create something too 'smelly' and I make sure the candle waxes are compatible.

I buy in the candle wicks to use for the new candles made from the 'meltdowns', and a range of waxes and gels and other supplies for making candles for Christmas decoration at home, and as Christmas gifts for friends and family.

Making candles is really easy to do and can be rewarding on a creative hobby level, I just really enjoy making them, as well as burning them.

Yet, silly me, I know, I know, hadn't given any thought to the potential of selling any of 'my' candles. That is until I came across this candle making tips sentence from a passionate candle maker, Sarah:-

"I have been using to generate an additional $3223 each and every month, all from simply making candles.

There's a few months to go before Christmas, so I'm wondering how much candle making at home in time for Christmas sales would generate if I started in September!

Here's Sarah's Candle Making at Home course, if you'd like to take a closer look.
