I was recently recommended "How to Make Candles at Home: The Simple Candle Making Guide for Beginners!" after a friend read it and started making these gorgeous candles for her home and I have to say it was well worth the purchase. It really goes the distance in providing solid and helpful advice for a newbie candle-maker like myself and ensuring that my efforts are as beautiful and successful as possible. Monica L. Patton skillfully guides readers through the process of candlemaking, from simple candles that even a beginner like me can do to more complex candles that I can try my hand at once I've got the basics down.This is a well-written guide that focuses on helping beginner candle-makers learn the basics. It's straightforward and easily understandable, allowing readers to get advice on everything from from ingredients and tools to guides on carved candles, dipped candles and more... showing you the truly beautiful candles you can make if given the chance. Ms. Patton has a passion for candlemaking that is clear from the very start and she makes you want to learn the fine art of candlemaking one step at a time.Overall, this book offered me a fantastic guide to how to make candles at home and has inspired me to really try my hand at creating gorgeous homemade candles. I would definitely recommend the book to those who are looking for experienced and skillful guidance in the art of making candles at home.
