CANDLE MAKING KIT + HOT PLATE

First let me say how clever the box / design is. I laughed .. out loud. It says I know you’ve been waiting for me … funny ! The kit comes with everything I needed to get started for a classic simple candle. I, myself enjoy scented so I was blown away by how easy it was to place the perfect amount of wax and toss in some essential oil fragrance and before I knew what happens I was three scents in and my house smells fantastic! Lol the kit has a LOT of wax so whatever the project , you’re well on your way ! Plus , you aren’t paying a small fortune for the candles you’d buy at that huge retail place I won’t mention .. I LOVE MY CANDLES ! I am going to need to find the happy medium for the temperature to get the wick to stay stable on the bottom of the containers but other than that , it was so easy to mix , melt and pour into my containers . Awesome ! Also , I got creative and added some small pine cones from my ranch to the wax and added a pine and apple scent with a cinnamon stick ..it smells like Christmas time at our cabin for sure ! :) enjoy yourself , happy creating !

This kit was an excellent value for a beginning candle maker.I was looking for a new hobby to try while my son began kindergarten that was relaxing, fun and rewarding. This kit was perfect for me. I loved everything it included.I have used it several times and so far it has worked very effectively.I loved that it came with online instructions.I loved the quality packaging and even higher quality materials. I actually like that it’s a simple kit because it allows for lots of creativity and room for learning, growth and experimentation.This kit would make a stand out gift for ANYONE who would like to try something new and likes to learn a new skill. Candle making has been fun, rewarding and relaxing so far and I can’t wait to try more!

This kit is awesome. It includes everything you need except for the scented oil. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow, and I really got a nice laugh out of the numerous mild sarcasm they included in the safety instructions for the hot plate. I love a good sense of humor! 😁 The hot plate and other tools were all excellent quality, and the soy wax itself seemed top notch to me, though admittedly this is my first time ever trying candle making.The manufacturer clearly cares about quality, and again, I liked their sense of humor and style. I’ll definitely buy from them again if I get the opportunity to do so! I would absolutely recommend this kit. I got it on sale, but it’s worth the usual full price.The candles I made with this kit were a big hit on Christmas! I didn’t use the wicks included in the kit, but they also seemed great quality as well. I ordered wood wicks instead and really enjoyed those.

Although this was a great starter kit, there are a few additional items that a new candle maker should make sure to order in addition to this. Kit includes a hot plate, a stainless steel warming pot, 50 candle wicks, a stirring spoon, and two 2.5lb bags of soy wax. It does not include any glass jars, adhesives for the wicks, scents to be added to the candle and it does not include a thermometer even though directions specify to heat to certain temperatures. Overall, it is a perfect gift or starter to begin your candle crafting journey and you will have fun making a beautiful candle. It is easy to use and the step by step instructions will guarantee success.

Chandler Tools is amazing, first off! I bought a heat gun from them that quit working unexpectedly, and Chandler shipped me another one free, no shipping charge, no need to return damaged item...just like that! Second, this kit is an excellent start off for candle making. It comes with a hot plate, a pouring pot, long spoon, wicks, and 1 pound of wax, as well as instructions on making a candle. Everything is good quality and works well. Thank you Chandler Tools!

I'm still in the process of fully using this product but I must say from the test run I did the candle I made lasted for a very long time and the fragrance i used made it even better. I would recommend this for anyone who like making their very own candles.

The wax is good quality and has no smell which is great, I wish the pouring pot was much bigger, you couldn’t fit a whole pound of wax in it without being able to stir. The biggest problem is the hot plate, it keeps turning on and off and it takes a long time to heat up the wax, so I’m going to have to buy something new. Overall it’s not horrible, just wish the hot plate was better quality.

After years of purchasing soy wax melts, I decided to try my hand at making my own. So far I've used this twice, and it was a success both times. There are a few additional things needed, though. A digital scale and thermometer were purchased separately, but they're not very expensive; candle dyes aren't, either. I'm buying all my scents from an outside vendor. Another thing I bought is a funnel pouring pitcher; it's so much easier. All in all, this will prove to be much more affordable than buying the melts, plus I can pick any scent or color I want.
