You Will Need (3 things)

  • 5 lbs Candle Wax
  • Candle Mould
  • 2 cup Ice Cubes

Steps (4 steps, 180 minutes)

  1. 1

    Melt your wax and set up your candle mold w/wick as you would for making a regular candle.

  2. 2

    Fill pre-wicked mold with ice cubes, stopping about 1" from top.

  3. 3

    Fill mold with melted wax, making sure wick stays centered.

    Wax must completely cover all ice cubes.

    Back-fill once candle begins to set up, to even out.

  4. 4

    Let cool for at least 2 hours.

    When completely cooled, tip candle mold (do this over the sink) and let water from ice pour out. Candle will slip out as water escapes.

    Trim wick and ENJOY!
