2. Botanical Herb-Infused Pearl Wax Jar
Marrying the clean burn of pearl wax with the earthy, rustic elegance of dried culinary herbs, this candle looks like an apothecary specimen.
- Introduction: Infused with dried rosemary and lavender sprigs, this minimalist jar candle releases a subtle, natural herbal aroma even before it is lit.
- Ingredients Needed: Unscented white pearl wax beads, dried culinary lavender buds, dried rosemary leaves, amber apothecary glass jar, and cotton pre-tabbed wicks.
- How to Make It: Place your amber apothecary jar on a flat surface. Center your pre-tabbed wick inside the jar. Begin pouring a 1-inch layer of white pearl wax beads around the wick. Along the interior glass walls, gently press a few sprigs of dried rosemary and lavender buds so they are visible from the outside. Pour another layer of wax beads over the botanicals, continuing this layering process until the jar is filled to about 1/2 inch below the rim. The wax beads will hold the herbs securely against the glass without needing any melting or glue.
