Summary: An excellent basic introduction to candlemaking
Review: After looking through stacks of books featuring floating candles, sand candles, and red white and blue beeswax cutout candles, I settled on this book for its introduction to a variety of techniques. This book answered questions I had on how to keep the wick still in votives, pouring temperature for different types of candles, how to make drip candles, and how to inlay objects. The author offers useful tricks for completing each project successfully accompanied with step by step photographs. The main thing I love about this book is that I can adapt its techniques to make my own creative projects.

Summary: Candle Making in a Weekend
Review: Colorful and practical. This book has great ideas for decorative candles. Each idea has step by step instructions (as well as pictures so you can double check your work) for basic techniques that stand alone or can be combined with others to make more elaborate candles.This is a book of projects. If you're looking for a history of the techniques/materials used to create these candles you won't get it. But if you want quick ideas without alot of informational interference, this is it.
