I've never made candles before yet I buy loads! I never find that perfect Christmas scent as they never seem strong enough or get discontinued the next year! So l have plenty of empty candle jars with loads of lumps of wax around so l really need to make my own don't l! So l was selected to review this book to leave an honest review and this is it...buy it! At the beginning of the book it goes through tools and materials with info about various waxes,holders,wicks,colours and other bits. Then it talks about techniques and safety which is followed on my the recipes. At the end of the book is a troubleshooting section. I feel confident that once the wicks arrive l shall be able to make a few decent candles.
