Waxes for Candle Making

You may not think about wax choice as being a big part of DIY candle making, but it is. That’s why there’s so many different kinds of wax. It makes sure that our crafters have access to the perfect candle wax for their project.

Different kinds of wax burn differently, hold fragrance differently, and even adhere to the inside of a candle container differently. That means that choosing the right wax can make or break a homemade candle project.

Fortunately, we’re here to help. We have a selection of the best candle waxes for DIY candles to make sure that you have access to exactly what you need to make your candle making project a success. From yellow beeswax for a beautiful, natural look, to plant derived waxes for a vegan option, our waxes are clean burning and designed and tested for use in containers and scented candles.

Coconut wax offers a softer texture and a slower burn than harder waxes, so mixed with other candle waxes they can lengthen the life of your candle. If you don’t want to make your own blend, check out our Coconut Soy Wax. It’s a blend specifically made for homemade container candles, so it has great adhesion even on slick glass surfaces, and great scent throw. We tested multiple wax blends to achieve the perfect balance.

Beeswax offers a soft yellow hue and a warm cozy scent without any added dyes or fragrances. If you want a beeswax candle that you can color, we have white beeswax too. For a great vegan alternative to beeswax, try candelilla wax. It has a slightly softer consistency and a beautiful glossy finish when cooled.

Whatever your candle project, we can help you find the perfect wax to use. Check them out and find your favorite today.
