Coconut Apricot wax is made with a blend of coconut, apricot, soy, and paraffin waxes. It's ideal for candle makers of all levels because it is easier to achieve a strong hot throw, has minimal frosting, produces smooth tops, and cures in only two days.
Soy wax is a popular choice among candle makers, from beginners to professionals. Soy is a plant-based wax that takes two weeks to cure.
Secure a wick to the bottom of the container with a wick sticker. Melt the wax to 185°F, stir in any fragrance or dye, and pour at the wax's recommended pouring temperature to cure before trimming the wick.

Weigh your reed diffuser base and fragrance oil into a pitcher, typically using a ratio of roughly 75% base to 25% fragrance. Gently stir the mixture until fully combined, then carefully pour it into your glass diffuser bottle. Insert six to eight reeds into the vessel, allowing them to absorb and disperse the scent.
