Making a richly scented candle is not difficult provided that you should be patient during the process of making. The only thing is to combine adequate quantities of wax, dye and fragrance oils. Let's see the steps on how to make a candle with a fragrance of your choice.

• You will need 500 grams of soy wax (flake form), 30 ml of richly scented essential oil (choose your preferable fragrance), one glass (size and shape as per your wish), wax dye and a thick cotton wick.
• First, put the soy wax in a pan and heat it at medium flame till the wax melts completely.
• Now, add the essential oil and wax dye in the pan. Stir the mixture continuously so that the dye and oil get absorbed in the soy wax.
• For fixing the wick in the glass, place the wick in the center and pour a little amount of the liquid wax. Wait till the wax solidifies. To keep the wick in the center, tie the other end of the wick to a pencil and place it over the glass.
• Now, pour the liquid wax to fill up the glass. Allow the wax to solidify; it may take time as per the size of the glass.
• Finally, trim the wick to about half an inch. You can light the scented candle and enjoy its rich fragrance.

Richly scented soy candles are healthier than paraffin- or petroleum-based candles. Soy wax burns cooler and is biodegradable. It is easier to clean soy wax than paraffin wax; one can wash soy wax with soap and water. Soy candles are also the best alternatives for those people who are allergic to petroleum-based candles.
