DIY Scented Candles For Fall


Intro

I stumbled on these microwaveable soy candle flakes at Michaels and decided to give it a try.

This kit was super easy to use. especially because it comes in the plastic container that can be used to melt the wax flakes.

Once I got this home, I decided to make some autumn themed candles.

I used some orange, brown, and gold colored crayons to color the wax. I also used some spices like cinnamon, cloves and pumpkin spice to add an autumn scent.

The whole process was super easy and I hope you give it a try.

In this post I document my simple process.


For this project I used:

Soy wax flakes
Candle wick(s)
Various sizes of Mason Jar or other up-cycled jar like a cute jelly jar.
• Crayons for color + Various Spices for added scent (optional)

These items are easy to find at your hobby/craft store, but if you can’t find them there, there’s always Amazon.

Gift Tags 🏷️

Last year I created some watercolor leaf clip art and decided to use them to create gift tags.

I printed some leaf clip-art on a sheet of card stock and then cut them out into tags.

Go to the Watercolor Autumn Clip-Art post to download these little leaves and the gift tag template.
