  This book aims to extend your enjoyment of candles by providing over 20 projects for making your own candles and candleholders. You can begin by simply painting or stencilling on plain candles to create your own personalised designs. If you would like to make your own from scratch you can choose to experiment with the traditional dipped method, or try your hand at using moulds or adding your own scents. To display your candles to best effect there are all kinds of shades and holders, from punched tin designs to an exquisite wire candle scone. Go for Japanese minimalism with shades made of handmade paper or recycle a galvanised steel bucket to make a container for the garden. With proper care, you can enjoy each project in every area of the home.
