Too simple for me
1. This small book does not go into detail about anything. I does not describe the candle making process very well.
2. Its what, 16 recipes? Basic high school arts and crafts stuff.. not for someone interested in new ( unique ) techniques.
3. You can google this information in 10 minutes. Don't waste your money.

This review is from: Candle Making (Step-by-Step Crafts) (Paperback)
This book starts out with defining different materials,waxes, molds,coloring/scenting,and wicks. It tells you how to prepare the wick;how to level the bottom of the candle;and how to use containers found in all homes. It has sections on beeswax candles,making tapers at home,making your own molds,painting and applique candles, layering candles, making floating flowers by hand, imbedding, gel candles(small section),making stacked candles,hurricane(shell)candles,stencilling, wrapped candle ideas,stick candles for the yard,marbling candles,and frosted candles. This book includes templates, variations and tips in the sections and all pages are either full colored pictures or have multiple pictures. Many of the crafts are even explained with pictures to show the novice how to make candles. I have bought around 30 books on candles and I still like this very much. It shows you how to make candles from nothing but the wax and your hands. I can't say enough about this book...

VERY USEFULL SIMPLE BOOK, October 31, 2009
This review is from: Candle Making (Step-by-Step Crafts) (Paperback)
What I really liked in this book is the beginning, she talks with details the general equipment and supplies, she presented each one with pictures, very nice. The projects are simple but very detailed with pictures step by step, there are nice ideias of different candles, the project Marble Slab is wonderfull, the candles looks like marble, it is amazing the effect she created. In general the book is simple and usefull and perfect to add in your library for more ideas of how making candles. thanks Chery, good job.
