So you’re keen to learn how to make your own candles. It is easy to do and very rewarding. At your local craft store, buy the supplies you need:

1. Wax
2. Wicks
3. Molds

And as with any other hobby, you can also get creative by making candles with:

1. Color
2. Decorations
3. Fragrances

You may easily find the remainder of the supplies you need at home.

Step 1: Use a double boiler to melt the wax. What is a double boiler? Fill up one large pot and place a smaller pot, holding the wax, on top of the larger pot. That way, the wax will not burn.

Step 2: Place the wick in the center of the mold while pouring in the wax once the wax has melted.

Step 3: Before removing it from the mold, let your wax cool for about four to six hours. If you find it difficult to remove the wax from the mold, try to freeze it for about 30 minutes. The should work. You also can try non-stick oil in a spray can. Spray the entire mold before pouring wax in. This will be a good way to remove the molded wax.

If you want to make your own molds, try liquid latex. Latex molds are typically way too flexible for standing on their own when pouring the wax into them. Cut a hole into a sturdy cardboard that is big enough for the mold to pass through. Your latex mold should have a lip on the bottom. Use the cardboard for support and pour the wax into the mold.

There is a variety of candles for you to make. You may play around with different kinds of fragrances, colors, and decorations. The only limit will be your imagination. Next you might want to learn how to make scented candles.

Man has been making candles for ages. Creating light was the only purpose before…obviously, it was a necessity then. At present, making wax candles is mostly a hobby. Of course, there may be other reasons. Most of the time, self gratification is the reason. Candles are also made for gift giving. You might also teach your children to make wax candles as a craft project. Profit is another common reason for making candles. Some people have ventured into selling candles as a business.

You were asking “how do you make candles?”. Hopefully, you found the answer.

If you like electric shavers, you know how the electric shave can often not live up to expectations. It is difficult to find one that shaves as close as a traditional razor. Unfortunately, if you want to get that super close shave on a traditional razor, you can end up getting a face full of nicks and cuts  Thankfully, Braun comes through again and their top 3 shavers give the closest shave, that will have you throwing that straight blade  in the trash! The Braun Series 7 is far and away the best electric shaver available. It will give you the best shave of any electric shaver that is on the market , and it also gives you the convenience of a self cleaning system that reduces the main drawback  of using  an electric razor. The extremely long charge is a great feature.

Pros

* Charge lasts a long time
*  Self cleaning
*  Shaving is Painfree

Cons
* on the expensive side
* Noisy cleaning system

IF you are looking for a less expensive option, I would recommend the Braun Series 5. This saves you money and you will still get the high quality of shave that only Braun shaves can deliver. The 1190 gives you a comparable shave to the the Series 7 but does not come with all of special features that go on the more expensive models. It is a great if you don’t want to spend the money for one of the more high priced shavers.And remember, all Brauns are guaranteed for 30 days.

Pros of the Braun 1190

* Not as expensive
* Thin foil design provides as good  as a shave as the more expensive models
* Easy cleaning

Cons

* Best if not used  with more than a few days growth
* makes more noise than higher priced models

The Braun Series 3 also provides a great shaving experience at a price that is affordable. Although it is rated below the other two Braun’s, the completion is  stiff and it will still give you a great shave at a great price.

Pros of the Braun Series 3

* Very Affordable
* Provides  a high quality shaving experience

Cons

* Does not have a vibrating head

*battery does not last long
