Solar Wax Melters

Does it smoke ?

No, totally clean.

Also, the rumour is that beeswax candles "purify the air" in the room they are being burned in.

I suspect that is all myths and lies, but it's a great story that appeals to the hipsters and others who are into that stuff 😄.

Anyhow, the candle molds I ordered arrived today so I gave it a shot, rather pleased with my first effort if I say so myself 🙂

Also, not badly coloured wax considering it came from the blackest most evil old brood comb that exists 🙂

I let that candle burn to see how long it would last but after 5 hours it was time to blow it out cos it was time for bed. In 5 hours it is about 2/3rds the way down, so they last a good while.
