Homemade Candles

Punch Cup Candles

I bought some 100% pure, chemical free beeswax and some all cotton wicks and poured my first candles today! I poured into some vintage punch cups and now have the most long and clean burning candles I've ever owned! So simple that I can't believe I've never tried this before. The candle burning in the picture has been going for 2 1/2 hours. All you need is a double boiler, some wicks and a small upcycled vessel. Super cool! (and by the way, the pure beeswax smells great by itself but you can always add some pure essential oils of your choice)
