Guest guest Posted June 14, 2000 Report Share Posted June 14, 2000 Hello. I have a craft project that calls for paraffin wax. Being the adventurer and the trying-to-not-use-so-many-petroleum-products person I am, I was wondering what a good substitute would be. Is beeswax my only economical choice? Does anyone have a supplier for uncolored beeswax that's inexpensive? Please email me offlist at branwen@... Thanks!

You will need to top up the candle to bring it even. Your top-up wax should be about 20 degrees F hotter than your first pour to make sure it sticks. You want to be careful not to over pour or some of the wax may get down the side of the candle, and that doesn't look too good. Pat. Peace, Joy, Serenity House of Scents tm.
