@sugarandcharm: I theifted these beautiful vintage glasses to make candles! 🕯️Here are some brief instructions but you can see the full tutorial and supply list on sugarandcharm.com What I use: Vintage glass containers (thrifted, always thick, never crystal) Coconut apricot wax Fragrance oils (not essential oils, they don't hold scent) Wicks sized to your container A candy thermometer The heat test (this is the most important step): pour boiling water into the container, wait 10 minutes, then shock it with cold water. If it doesn't crack, it's safe to use as a candle. Always thick glass, never crystal. The formula: 1 lb of wax = about 16 oz of container space Add 1 oz of fragrance per 1 lb of wax Melt wax to 185°F, add fragrance at 175°F, pour at 135°F Scents I made: Banana bread with cinnamon and cardamom Garden mint with orange blossom, rosemary, and jasmine Full tutorial with every supply and link is on sugarandcharm.com #candlemaking #diycandle #vintagethrifting #homemadecandles #candletutorial

I've been collecting vessels but wasn't sure how to check them. I get the boiling water part, but how do you cold shock it?

Love this! My town has a lady that does this and if you bring the container back you can have it refilled at a great discount.

I knew you had to use tempered glass, thick heavy crystal, or borosilicate glass, I didn't know there was a way to test it if there's no label indicating what it is. Thank you!!

I tried it but have a problem with tunneling. I have to learn how to prevent that.
