How to make a candle I Easy Tutorial for Beginners
Are you looking to learn how to make a basic candle? I'll walk you through step by step how I make a candle and link the items & formulas I use below! This is super easy to follow tutorial.
Items I used:
Affiliate Links:
Wax Melter: amzn.to/49I9MhA
Thermometer: amzn.to/43cFcL7
Small Wax Pour Pot (32oz) : amzn.to/3uHL4PE
Larger Wax Pour Pot (4lb): amzn.to/42XyQ1V
Candle Warning Stickers: amzn.to/49B6yN9
Wooden Wick Holders: amzn.to/49PqOKO
Scale: amzn.to/3OZgcks
Smaller scale to measure fragrance oil: amzn.to/3uQVhcs
Non Affiliate:
The wax I used: Virgin Coconut Soy Wax from Makesy
Fragrance Oil: Midwest Fragrance Oil Company
FORMULAS I USED:
To determine how much wax you will need:
1) Place the vessel on a scale and zero out the scale
2) Fill the vessel with water and write down how much it weighs
3) Next take the water weight the vessel holds and times it by .86
4) This number is how much WAX the vessel will hold. The next step is to subtract the amount of fragrance oil you want to use (I use 9%) from this number. (Take 9% of the total wax weight the vessel holds and this is your fragrance oil amount. Subtract the fragrance oil total from the wax weight total and this is amount of wax you want to melt and use).
Ex. 12 ounce vessel holds
14.7 oz of water weight x.86=12.64 oz of wax the vessel will hold - 1.14oz of fragrance oil= 11.5 ounces of wax we need to melt and use

    there is another problem I encounter, evertime I press with the sublimation paper, it leaves a mark on the teflon paper that I put on top, and if I use that teflon, that mark will press on the next shirt I press, so what I do is put the sublimation paper then a bond paper, then a teflon paper. but I notice that others don't do that. what could be wrong on my sublimation paper?

    Thank you! The hardest part is the time that goes into making something. There are so many handmade items that take many hours, so the price is either going to seem too high compared to mass-produced items in a store, or too low when we consider how many hours went into the item.

    Thank you so much but I’m getting markings on the t- shirts if I go low pressure. Problem is if not enough pressure is applied image is not good enough and if I apply medium pressure I get markings like you explained in last part of the video.Currently using A-sub A3 paper and 6.5 turns on standard press machine 196c temp for 65sec. So frustrating to get markings off as it seems that is impossible. Any less pressure print quality is so bad. Any idea how to fix it. And again thanks so much.

    I am newer to sublimating tumblers and mugs. I ordered A-sub paper 105 just because it seemed like a happy medium between the most expensive 125 weight and the economy version. My mugs and tumblers have all turned out well. No complaints. I haven’t tried 125 but I don’t feel the need to and it’s more expensive

    This started toward the end of December so I wonder if an update changed something but can not find it if it did ! When I make a PNG in canva and let’s say it’s pink or red or yellow any color really and send it to my Epson 15000 for sublimation it comes up in print preview and 11 by 17 is the worst it put little black makes around the picture I have made on the edges only not completely but a lot and on 8 1/2 by 11 there is really none I mean it’s doing it when it sends to printer before I print the paper and if print preview shows it then it prints it on the paper that way! I can’t figure it out ! Can you help ? Any ideals ? Thank you for your help !

    Amy, I was wondering how you keep the faces (same colors) attatched to just layer easily. When I cut out all my faces with the different colors everything cut out separately and so I have to piece it together 1 piece at a time...if that makes sense. I'm kind of new so I may not be explaining it too well but every single piece for every single m and m is separate so I don't even know what pieces go to which m and m. I appreciate any help you can give me :) thank you.

    I have some 105 A-Sub but was recently told to go from 120 to 125 for tumblers. But I’ll try anything. But as a semi-newb trying to get past this issue it was really frustrating that you didn’t show the seam as you taped. I want to know if you overlap at all or if you try to cut it perfect enough that the edges but up together.
