Step-by-step Instructions

Take the cleaned Mason Jar:
Add the Mason Jar and add warm water and soap and wash well. By doing this you can create a clear and bright wax candle.
Melt the wax:
Follow the details on the outer cover of the wax you have purchased. Or use a double-boiler pot or microwave-safe container as usual.
Attach the candle wick to the Mason Jar:
Apply glue to the bottom of the jar and place the candle wick. To keep the candle wick straight, wrap the top of the thread around a pencil and place it over the jar.
Add the sand layer to the bottom of the jar:
Put a little sand at the bottom of the jar and balance it.
Place some seashells on top of the sand:
You choose the seashells that are clean and dry. layer them on top of the sand.
Pour the melted wax into the jar:
pour the melted wax into the Mason’s jar slowly because if you pour fast, the sand layer and the seashells at the bottom of the jar will dissolve. It doesn’t look good in sight. Leave an inch from the top without pouring the wax completely into the jar.
Cool the candles:
After pouring the wax, it may take a few hours for the wax to cool down at this time. Do not move the jar at this time.
Cut the candle wick into size:
Once the wax is completely hard, cut the candle wick to one inch. Now your coastal Mason Jar candle is ready! Light the candle and enjoy the relaxation.

🕯️ DIY Mason Jar Candle FAQs: Because We All Have Questions (and Sometimes Melted Wax on Our Counters)

What kind of wax should I use for Mason jar candles?

Wow, wonderful wax discussion! You have options – Saya wax (environmental and burns slowly), honey wax (smell of nature), or paraffin wax (classic – but little green). For starters, soy wax is your choice. It is like your friend who does not assess your first “brief” effort in the candle decoration.

Can I use any Mason Jar I see on my grandmother's shelf?

If it is not clean and cracks – of course! Make sure it is a heat-protective mirror, not as a dramatically broken as a soap opera story twist. Bonus spots if it smells like a home -made jam.

How to keep the candle screen without leaning like a pizza tower?

Fantastic question, wax whisper. Use a pencil or chopstick on top of the jar to keep the items upright. Or be pretty and use Vic stickers – because the Wicks is like a small spa treatment.

My wax is a lumpy. What did I do wrong?

First – breathe. You don’t spoil Christmas. You may have heated it very fast or not stirring enough. Use a dual boiler or microwave-protective container for that soft-humble paste (slow down and stir often!). Pretend to make you make a good sauce. Reduce calories.

Can you add essential oils for smell?

Of course! After the wax is melted but add your oils before pouring it into the jar. About 1 ounce of oil for a pound wax is a solid start. Lavender to relax, citrus for energy, or if your living room is smelled like a Pinterest board in the fall.

How long does it take to set up a candle?

Take time for good things, waxing is no exception. For a few hours without moving it – let it cool overnight. Yes, even if you are too tempted to reach. Turn yourself away by reorganizing the pillows or seeing a home decoration frequently.

Is it safe to burn the mason jar candles into the house?

Complete! As long as the jar is heat-protective, the thread is cut properly, and you should not notice it (especially near the curtains, cats or more interested children). General knowledge is the real MVP here.

Can I gift these candles?

1000x Yes! DIY Mason Jar candles make up amazing handmade gifts. A small rope, a beautiful tag, maybe a sea tile or two – and boom, you are officially jealous of the craftsman in the Secret Santa.

Can you customize the appearance to match my home decorative style?

Oh, dear – yes. Go with dry flowers, go to the beach with sand and sea tiles, or minimum monochrome labels. These candles are basically empty small canvas with good smell.

What if I am confused? Bad ... so?

So, you have created a limited version compression art candle! The beauty of DIY home decor is that the flaws = charm. Besides, it’s still glowing, isn’t it? That’s a success in our book. Continue Testing – You are basically a candle -making Picaso.
