Synopsis: Candles are irresistible, but the immense creative potential for using and displaying them is often unrealized. The first section in this book, Candle Style, will open your eyes to the wonderful range of candles to choose from, and beautiful ways in which candles can be used and presented in the home. Section two, Candle Making, is a comprehensive guide to the highly rewarding and inexpensive craft of making candles. The first projects demonstrate the basic techniques such as dipping, coloring, molding, rolling and scenting candles. These are followed by creative and exciting ideas about how to build on these techniques, such as making marbled candles and embossed candles, or by decorating the wax by painting, stenciling, carving, and adding gold leaf.
