Candle Making - Softcover

Candles provide the finishing touch for nearly every special occasion, whether romantic or festive. Now Lynne Garner shows you how to make your own candles using basic or improvised equipment. Starting with a simple, one-color candle, she then encourages you to twist, roll, mould, mix, dip, and scent your designs. Clear, step-by-step instructions and 150 color photos guide you through every step of the process, and helpful hints and tips help you to gain the confidence to try more ambitious projects. A final section on novelties includes candles fashioned as a Halloween ghost and a Christmas pudding.

Lynne Garner was introduced to candle making six years ago when she was given a kit for her birthday. As the kit ran out before her enthusiasm did, she bought further supplies and became truly hooked. She now teaches candle making and writes on the art for craft magazines. Lynne has also written Rubber Stamping with other Crafts for the Guild of Master Craftsmen. Resident - Bishops Stortford, Herts
