How do I make wax beads for candle making?
SantaCruz2u asked:
I had some small parffin wax beads given to me that are strongly scented and painted gold. They are roundish in shape and no larger then a small pea. Can anyone help me with a formula and directions to make this small wax bead for candle project and sachets in glass jars

I have some of those, they are gold, but not painted.
You can put down a wick, like other candles. Then pour these beads in the container and light the waxed wick. It will start to melt the beads. If yours are painted, you might not want to do this, as paint will not burn as well as the wax does. In fact, the paint will not burn well at all, but will smoke.
