What is the Difference and Why You Should Try It – Gel Candle Making
Candle makers are really starting to catch on to gel candles as opposed to normal wax candles. Gel candles are very similar to wax candles in that they typically burn in the same manner; however they are crafted a little bit differently.
While both gel and wax candles are both made from oil, gel candles are made of only 95% oil and the remainder is polymer resin. Gel wax typically comes in three different varieties. Low, medium and high density. The difference is that the higher density will produce more fragrance but it will take longer for the thicker gel to meld and it is a bit harder to pour. Keep this in mind when you are choosing which gel wax to try.
Historically that’s been one huge challenge, and something that has been as much decided by the perceived profitability of a book as the actual content or quality. Sadly craft book publishing, like any other book production, has long been controlled by the bean counters we all know and love!
Now we’re in a whole new craft book world, one where self-publishing is a practical reality. One where sales and distribution can be handled by you almost as easily as you handle email. One where you can take that book you’ve put your heart and soul into and actually publish it yourself…
… and of course you get to keep the lion’s share of the money!
Giving them away as gifts or using them yourself are just a few of the ways that candles can be used. For some, it is a very profitable business venture. Candle making and selling can be done entirely over the Internet, if you would like to do so. While other people prefer to market their candle creations at fairs, flea markets, trade shows, or even sell them to neighbors and family members.
You may be wondering why anyone would want to buy homemade candles rather than store bought products. Well, one reason is that candles made at home have features that are more pleasing. They are one-of-a-kind candle creations. There are no limits to the shapes, sizes, fragrances, and colors you can make candles in.
Creating gel candles is easy and quick. One of the coolest things about gel candles is that you can add decorations directly on the wax so they float from inside the candle. This can provide a rather unique look for your candle and is also a great way to personalize a candle if you are making it as a gift. You should also find that your gel candles burn noticeably slower than wax candles so they last a little longer. Happy candle making
