Synopsis
Make candles with that personal, imaginative touch. Gorgeous color photographs come together with a complete how-to guide to help you produce any combination of size, shape, color, scent, and style. Experiment with mold, double mold, dipped, rolled, and floating candles, shape them by carving, pinching, and twisting the wax, and add aromatic effects. Decorating techniques include decoupage, embossing, and leafing, while a variety of easily available items such as dried leaves, foil, paint, cork, glitter, and bracelet charms will transform the most ordinary candle into an object of beauty and charm. You'll even learn how to make candleholders and containers from ordinary household items, and individualize store-bought candles. Lavish photographs of gleaming candles in inspiring settings show exactly how to create a romantic evening, a festive holiday atmosphere, or a warm welcome for dinner guests.

Review
Creating your own candles allows for a wide range of creative expression. Molding, dipping, rolling, carving, twisting, scenting, decorating-all these methods yield unique handmade candles, and all are nicely explored in this well-illustrated guide. A thorough introduction to the various techniques sets the stage for dozens of projects, from molded shapes concealing hidden treasures or stately pillars collaged with found objects to elegantly decoupaged tapers or whimsical candles mimicking ice cream sundaes. Many projects are devoted to decorating candle containers, so in addition to showing beginners how to delve into the field and providing more experienced crafters with new ideas, the book also offers great designs for unleashing your creativity on the candleholder, even if you never make a single candle from scratch. --Amy Handy
