5 Reasons Why Making Candles Should Be Your New Hobby

When it comes to choosing a new hobby, there are usually so many different options you can do. Here's why candle making should be your next one! 

1. You Learn a New Skill

People have been making candles for centuries. While how we make them today is a little bit different, you'll be able to perfect a new skill. It is quite easy to learn and you'll get to know a heap of new lingo! The perfect way to start off is by using our Candle Making Starter Kit which is equipped with all the bits and pieces you need to start off learning!

2. It's fun

When starting a new hobby, this is important! You get to have so much fun making your candles from preparing your candle jars and wicks, to melting your soy wax, and pouring it and enjoying your finished product. Once you have all your candle supplies, the fun begins!

3. You can have fun personalising your own

When making candles you can choose from our large range of Australian made fragrance oils, gorgeous candle jars and even candle dyes. This means you can make candles which are perfect to match your space and have a scent you love! The great thing is, you can make candles with uncommon or unique fragrances you can't get from store bought candles.

4. You'll always have handmade gifts 

There's always something special about homemade gifts. Not only has your time been put into making it but your love has too. Homemade candles make an excellent gift and when you can select a fragrance and a jar you know that special person will love, it makes all the difference.

5. It's much cheaper than buying candles

If you're the type of person who always has candles burning in your home, making your own will be a lot cheaper than purchasing them. This also means you know exactly what has been added into your candles too. Often times, commercial candles are a blend of soy wax and additives which can be harmful to breathe in. When you make your own, you know exactly what you've put in there. 100% Soy Wax gives a nice clean burn with no nasty chemicals. We are candle suppliers with wholesale pricing meaning you are getting the best quality products for the best possible price.
