Why not add a stylish touch to your interior with a handmade bonbon candle? Let’s make an original candle using hard-type soy wax.

First, coat the wick string with soy wax.

Once you’ve secured the wick in your preferred mold, pour in the melted wax from a pot.

If you pour too quickly, air bubbles can form, so pour slowly.

While the wax is setting, attach a pre-made name tag or similar accent to make it even more chic.

When the wax has fully hardened, remove it from the mold, add the tag, decorate, and you’re done.

A wax bar is an aromatic candle you can enjoy by hanging it up without lighting it.

If you embed dried flowers or dried fruit and let it set, it also becomes a stylish accessory that brightens up your room.

Making one is very simple: place your favorite decorations in a wax bar mold, then pour in melted wax and a few drops of essential oil over them.

Once it hardens, remove it from the mold, make a hole in one spot, and thread a string through it for hanging.

Since wax can splatter, be mindful of your surroundings and clothing when making it.
