Making your own soap? Candles? Lotions or lip balm? Tell us about it! |

I love candles, but they're expensive, so I melt the used wax and make my own, mostly votive. |

Check e-bay. You can actually use a lot of household items for molds. I've even used plastic coke bottles. I buy used, and sometimes new, candles cheap at garage sales and melt them down in an old potpourri burner. I stretch a knee high around it to filter out the impurities. All I have to buy is the wicks, and I get them on e-bay when I can find them cheap. Edited by Jean, Mar 7 2008, 05:12 PM.
