The girls and I took a drive down the highway the other day to buy something just for me. Some supplies for more crafting. I love beeswax candles but find they can be a little expensive to buy so when I found someone local to me that sells all things to do with bees and candle making I thought I should give making some a try for myself. They have moulds galore but with a growing jar collection in the cupboard I thought I would use them to make the candles. I ended up buying 2kg of beeswax so I should have plenty to use up some of the collection and more than enough to giveaway as gifts also.
Have a wonderful weekend♥
Now that's the very best way to source materials for a special crafting time. xxx
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous! That little escape with your girls and your images x
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect day! I would love to see your candles when they're done. I'd be a sucker for the moulds...good for you just buying the beeswax. Hope your weekend is lovely :) xx
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely day! A friend has been wanting to make candles but we can't buy the necessary beeswax or other ingredients here. Happy crafting! Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteSounds like a nice way to spend the day with a drive in the country. Your candle ingredients look nice, I look forward to seeing your creations, Wendy xx

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see how your gorgeous candles turn out lovely x
DeleteBeeswax candles smell so good. They were a new thing in the seventies and I remember buying one of the rolled ones that look like they're made out of little hexagons. It was the first candle I'd ever bought and I didn't light it for months, I just wanted to have it and look at it..and smell the honey!
ReplyDeleteBeeswax candles - delightful. My 11 year old is keen to make candles but we can't source any supplies locally. Looking forward to seeing what you make.
ReplyDeleteI used to LOVE making candles! Can't wait to see how they turn out! Dont they just smell devine :)

Ooh, I have been wanting to try beeswax after making some soy candles..I imagine they would smell divine.
ReplyDeleteThat little town looks so quaint and is exactly the sort of place I would visit.
Hope you are having a lovely weekend.

Oh, the town looks just beautiful! Sometimes all you need to see are horses grazing in a paddock....

Sounds like a lovely day. I've wanted to get some beeswax candles ever since I read about their purifying qualities on Jodi's blog... I hope yours turn out successfully and what a great way to re-use some old jars x
