More than pretty pictures and hot air, this candle book has real substance as well as beautiful photos. Readers learn how to make 40 kinds of candles: hand-dipped tapers, rolled beeswax pillars, molded candles, votives, sand and water candles, and ice, chunk, floating, hurricane, and cut-and-curl candles. Mail-order resource included. 145 color photos.

Reviews
Both these books cover essentially the same ground and are good basic guides for making candles. They deal with waxes, wicks, molds, scents, and a variety of decorating techniques. Oppenheimer's book has a more extensive text with line drawings, while Coney's is completely illustrated with color photographs. Both have more information on candle-making than Gloria Nicol's The New Candle Book (LJ 11/1/95), a guide that emphasizes candle display. These are both good basic books for the library craft collection.
