Candle Making Jars

Homemade candle making has come a long way in the past decade. I remember when I was a child, we used to make candles using a 1/2 gallon milk container. We'd fill it up with ice and pour melted candle wax in. After it had set, we'd peel off the milk carton and you'd have a very interesting homemade candle. It kind of looked like, frozen colored ice.

Nowadays with places like Micheal's Crafts, and other large craft stores, the home crafter has access to a plethora of tools. There are different types of candle wax so that homemade candle making has gotten to be much easier than in the past. You can purchase metal and poly molds or you could actually use any jar that you like. All you have to do is fill it with the candle wax and a wick.

A very inexpensive way to do your homemade candle making, is to go to your local dollar store and purchase different glass votive or glass jars, actually any glass container can be used as candle making jars. Here is a quick overview of how to make a glass jar candle. The main thing here is to use your imagination.

Almost any glass jar can be used to make candles. Tall , thin, short, fat whatever. If you are using various colored waxes the tall clear jars make a beautiful impression. Just make sure you have plenty of clearance between the burning wick and glass so it does not get to hot and break. For more information on this visit the web site at the bottom of this article.

So to do your own homemade candle making, you'll need a crock pot or double boiler to melt the wax to 160 degrees. Then you can add scented oils and food coloring. Put a dot of glue on the bottom of the metal part of the wick and place it in the candle making jars. Then pour the melted wax into the candle making jars or glass containers that you've purchased. Let the wax cool to a semi-hardened crust and then you can straighten out the wicks and get it centered. Let the candle cool at room temperature completely, which will be about 6-8 hours.

You'll see that the wax has sunken a little in the middle. Now you are going to re heat the leftover wax to about 185 degrees and pour some in to your jar to level it off. Let that cool again and trim your wick to about a quarter inch, and you now have your very own homemade jar candle.

The possibilities are endless; you can use any type of glass containers for your candle making jars that you like, so let your imagination go wild! Have fun with it!

There is a melted circle in the floor. I don't know if it is acrylic/vinyl/laminate.?

I don't know if it is acrylic/vinyl/laminate.

The floor looks kind of like this:
http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Articles/5004840/186651-main_Full.jpg
Except all the squares are all the same size.

Someone put a hot pot on the floor and it made a melted ring there. It covers two "squares", but I think the whole floor is one "sheet" of "plastic"? So does that mean I have to replace the entire floor? Under what melted, it looks white sticky white glue sheet or something.

Will I need to replace the whole floor, or just the 2 squares?
************

Thank you

You can just replace the two squares. Do you have a piece left over from when the floor was put down? Cut the new piece first. Then hold over existing floor to scribe with a utility knife. Remove all of the old glue and everything. Then glue the new piece down and seal the seam with clear fingernail polish. If you take your time and do it right. it will look as good as new
