Some advice please.

My 13 year old’s been taking an interest in our candle making. We only fo a few for family and friends using thorne wax and moulds.

Thinking of asking around for some wax from other beekeepers. What’s the going rate for filtered wax suitable for candlesmaking in?

Any other advice to get her started is welcome.

Thanks
 
Christmas markets coming up. What do people find the most popular rolled foundation candle size and how does one arrive at a price, eg bundle of 4, each made from 1/2 sheet of super foundation?

I usually sell a pack of three from normal deep foundation or a pack of four from deep cut comb foundation for £10. Can't remember wick size currently but I use NT wicks from 4candles.
