DIY Beeswax Candles - Only 500g Pure Beeswax & Wick

Give your honey jar a second life!

Is your honey jar almost empty? Don't throw it away! This is the perfect time to make your own natural beeswax candle. With this complete kit, you can transform an empty jar into a golden-yellow mood setter with a subtle, natural scent.

What's included in this kit?

• 500 grams of pure beeswax: Our fine pellets melt quickly and are easy to portion.

• Ample wick: Enough for multiple candles, so you can fill other jars too!

How to make it yourself (Step-by-step)

Making your own candles is a fun and creative process. Follow these steps for a beautiful result:

1. Preparation: Make sure your empty honey jar is clean and dry.

2. Melting: Put the beeswax pellets in a glass bowl or old saucepan. Melt the wax au bain-marie (in a bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water).

3. Placing the wick: Use a drop of melted wax to stick the bottom of the wick in the center of your jar. Keep the wick straight with a clothespeg or a stick resting on the rim of the jar.

4. Pouring: Carefully pour the melted wax into the jar.

5. Hardening: Let the candle cool down slowly at room temperature. Trim the wick to about 1 cm, and your homemade candle is ready to use!

Why choose beeswax?

Beeswax is a wonderfully sustainable natural product with a distinctive warm color. It burns slowly and for a long time, releasing a light, pleasant honey scent that immediately creates extra coziness in your home.

Tip: Have some wax left over? You can also collect small glass jars from jam or sauces to make a whole set of mood lights!
