Beautiful floating handmade candles with rosehip fragrance

Another type of homemade candles that I would like to demonstrate are floating candles made in the form of various inflorescences. Most often they are made in the form of wax rosehip flowers.

It is customary to make such beautiful candles with their own hands from light palm wax, giving them a flat rounded shaped flower shape. They have a pleasant sweet and delicate fragrance that fills the room in which they are lit.

To work on a flower candle, you will need the following creative tools and materials:

- Purple palm wax.

- Pink palm wax.

- Aromatic oils – Rosemary and Rosehip.

- A wick tourniquet.

- A wooden stick for stirring liquid palm wax.

- Convenient detachable container (in the form of a flower) for the ebb of the future candle.

It is recommended to perform candle work by following the action plan described below.:

- Finely crumble the colored bases in order to reduce the melting time and obtain a homogeneous mass of the base.

- We fix the cord of the wick in a flat shape in the form of a curly rosehip flower.

- We put a convenient container for melting in a water bath, wait until the water boils under it, and carefully pour the chopped purple base into the container.

- Slowly mix the mass with a wooden stick, after completely melting, add the Rosemary oil to it, mix again.

- Carefully pour the liquid base into the mold and set aside, allowing the first layer of our candle to completely solidify.

- At this time, we melt the pink base by mixing it with aromatic Rosehip oil, after it has completely melted, we pour it into the mold on top of the previous layer.

- We leave an almost finished beautiful candle with our own hands in a cold place for the whole night.

- Carefully remove the frozen rosehip flower from the mold and carefully straighten the wick.

- Using the sharp end of a wooden stick or a penknife, we make small indentations on the petals of the flower on the candle.

You can decorate a palm wax candle not only with a beautiful floating candlestick, but also with artificial petals or leaves made of polymer clay, cold porcelain or silk fabric soaked in a special solution. If desired, you can add dried rose hips to the composition or decorate the contours of the petals with red and golden glitter. Check the file size before installing via melbet download .
