Melt wax in double boiler . Use the thermometer to ensure the temperature does not exceed 190°F.

Add your Essential Oils to the melted wax while heating/melted. This ensures it combines thoroughly.

Tie an end of the wicks to a pencil to help it hang vertically over the molds you are pouring the wax into.

Cut the wicks from the pencil and let stand for 24 hours.
