You Won't Believe How I Used DOLLAR TREE Candles To Make BRILLIANT DIYS! Krafts by Katelyn 2024

Kaitlyn, one thing, you could do to keep it from coming out of the metal stars or anything metal is sticking it into your freezer for twenty minutes before you pour the hot wax in. Usually, not always but usually it slows it down and hardly it lets any out

You and Bargain Bethany, especially Bethany, are the ones I go to with the faux food and drink looking candle ideas.

The wax colors in the little tins are so pretty. I love the designs on those tins, they are so pretty.

The flowers with the white candle is beautiful

I LOVE your pressed flowers DIY's. They always turn out so BEAUTIFUL.

Making candles can be a very fun craft. I started off doing similar using Dollar Tree candles and melting and pouring into other containers. I started doing research and determining ways to make candles I would like from colors to fragrance to wicks and containers ect. It's trial and error honestly. Its just about doing it safely. Some advice the dips you get on the candles the wax is a little too hot and the container cool so take a heat gun to the inside of the container prior to pouring and it'll help, this used to happen to mine a lot. Getting a candle or kitchen thermometor will help check temp prior to pouring, different waxes pour better at different temps. Also recommend putting the wick down first with glue or glue dots before pouring as it helps to center the wick for best burning. I'll say the pillar glass candles at Dollar Tree are like a whipped wax and the wicks are not the best quality. But I'll say it's not very expensive to get started with better quality wax, containers, wicks, fragrance oils ect and honestly being able to make it the way you want is just such a fun thing. Also electric wax melters are a great way to save time and melt insanely fast. Also if a candle is to be lit I recommend not using glue, paint, nonwax items in it just for safety but if just for decor I see no problem. Using molds to make wax inbeds are another option if the candles to be burned.These are of course just suggestions. I think you're doing great putting your crafts out there for people to see. Best to You & Happy Crafting!

I love the look of the Anthropologie knock offs towards the end! Thanks for the refresher on making tassels.

First of all you are my favorite crafty girl with amazing ideas each and every time and second I thought of a video. How to fix a mistake on a project! I can't seem to make anything right the first time and thus this will help me out learning what I can do when I make a mistake instead of throwing it away!

Beautiful candles with floral stickers.

the reason you wax is caving in or tunneling is because you are pouring the wax in when it is too hot. I tried it both ways and it works better if it is not as hot

Cute ideas!

Love all the different ways you made the candles. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤

Love the pastel candles! Pretty spring colors.

Thank you for all the candle ideas. It’s hard to pick a favorite.

Great job as usual!!! I loved the simplicity of the star candle. As far as the wax seeping out even after you use hot glue, I wonder if the wax is so hot that it's remelting the hot glue?

Love the Red White and Blue candles!

So creative and beautiful thank you for sharing have a wonderful evening 💙💗🦋🌈💚💜

Everything is just beautiful!

Great candle ideas. Blessings 😊 🙏
