CANDLE MAKING
FUNDAMENTALS
ACCELERATE YOUR CANDLE MAKING SKILLS TO GROW A BUSINESS OR START A HOBBY ALL FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR HOME
This message is for anyone struggling to get off the ground with candle making and just want to understand how to create the greatest candles they can possibly make.
CANDLES ARE
COMPLICATED
The amount of information on the internet about candle making is suffocating.
Where do you start?
Who do you trust?
If you want to start a business you have to get your product right.
Can you imagine if vehicle manufacturers just liked cars but didn’t know how they worked? Or if doctors enjoyed medicine but weren’t really educated on the impacts they could have on human health?
The why would you be able to start a candle business without knowing how candles work?
LEARNING THE FUNDAMENTALS IS
STEP ONE
OF CREATING YOUR CANDLE EMPIRE
The amount of money being made by homemade candle makers is staggering.
Candle making is a multi-billion dollar market, and it’s not showing any signs of slowing down.
In the information age, you’d think you could find out everything you need about the craft in a few clicks, videos, or articles, but you’d be wrong.
In fact, if you’re like me, it just doesn’t work like that. The more information I consumed from videos and articles, the more confused I became.
“I just want to make candles – it can’t be that hard, right?“
Wrong.
It’s not fair to think that candle making is as simple as it looks. In fact, the entire craft is rooted deeply in three different disciplines of science:
- Thermodynamics
- Chemistry
- Physics
…and creating a candle that burns SAFELY and smells EXCELLENT is not very easy to do!
Mastering the fundamentals make you “candle smart” – capable of safely creating a memorable fragrance experience with a touch of handmade care.
HOW CAN YOU
MASTER
THIS ANCIENT CRAFT?
The hardest part of getting better at something is making it convenient.
And more than convenient, it has to be valuable.
My flagship online course was designed to be an easy investment into learning candle making, even if you’re a complete beginner.
Soy wax is insanely popular right now among homemade candle makers, so I carefully crafted my lessons to incorporate soy wax as much as possible.
Above all, this course is the ultimate resource for guiding you from knowing absolutely nothing about candle making to understanding the craft at a deep level to qualify you to run your own workshop and start a business upon a firm foundation of knowledge and skill.
