Candle Making

Busy day today. Trying out some new fragrances for the candles. So far the 'Wedding Cake' and the 'Antique Lace' seem okay, but of course it is hard to tell until they are actually lit. I use soy wax and ideally they should be left for a minimum of at least a week before the test burn. Soy wax is cleaner and more eco friendly, however the scent throw can be harder to achieve.

Cleanliness

This excerpt from a little childcare book made me chuckle. I think the book is dated somewhere around the 1930's.
