Step 1
Prep - Using a hot glue gun, secure the wicks to the center of your jars.
Step 2
Melt - Using a melting pot or makeshift double boiler, melt the beeswax over medium low heat, stirring occasionally until it is completely melted. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut oil until there are no chunks left.
Step 3
Add Oils - Let the wax cool to 180 degrees. Use a candy thermometer to check the temperature. Stir in essential oils of your choice.
Step 4
Pour - Carefully pour the melted wax into the jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the tops.
Step 5
Cool - Using wick centering devices or a clothes pin, make sure the wicks are all centered in the wax. Let cool until the candles are completely hardened. Trim the wicks to 1/4 inch above the wax.
