We are more than happy to answer the questions you might have.
Per pound of wax, you will get about 20 ounces of volume. To find how much wax you will need, multiply the number of candles you are making by the amount of wax it will hold, and then divide that by You will have to do a burn test on your candle if you want an accurate burn time.
To do this, you simply burn the candle and keep track of the time that it takes to burn completely. The time that it burns will depend on the wax, wick, fragrance, dye, and the amount of time it is burned in one sitting.
The burn time will be longer if you light it and let the melt pool reach the sides of the jar; then extinguish it, let it re-harden and trim the wick before lighting it again.
If the candle is left to burn for an extended period of time before being extinguished, the burn time will be slightly shortened.
Fading can happen when candles are exposed to UV rays or fluorescent lighting. Adding UV stabilizer while you are making candles will help greatly reduce fading. Test burning your candles before you start selling them will ensure they are burning to your satisfaction. This gives you the opportunity to find problems before they are distributed. That is because these containers are popular with customers and you end up making a lot of them.
All of these measurements are approxamate, meaning that depending on the specific types of containers you are using, measurements may vary slightly. You need 3. This will fill the container to its fill line, however, it will not fill the container to its overflow line. It takes approximately 4. You need 4. It takes approximately 5. You need 6. It takes approximately 8. You need 8 ounces of wax by weight for a 10 oz candle by volume. It takes approximately 11 ounces to fill the container to its overflow line.
You need 9. It takes approximately You need As stated above, these measurements are approximations. The fill line measurement will vary depending on the size and style of your container. However, calculations for wax weight to make a candle are more accurate. A pound of wax will make approximately 32 tealights depending on the actual size if the tealight cups you are using it may be slightly less or slightly more.
One pound of wax can make two 10 oz candles or four 5 oz candles. In addition, depending on the size of your fragrance load you may be able to make even more candles of smaller size because fragrance oil displaces wax when making candles. Depending on the fragrance load, you may be able to make another smaller candle because of the fragrance oil displacing a certain amount of wax.
With 10lbs of soy wax ou can make 20 ten oz candles, 25 eight oz candles, 33 six oz candles, or 50 four oz candles. This number also depends on if you fill to the fill line or the overflow line and the design of the container if you are filling to the overflow line.
In conclusion, the amount that your containers say they can hold is not the amount of wax that will be going into them because the wax is measured by weight and not by volume.
Plan ahead the best you can but do not expect everything to work out perfectly on your first try. Add up the amount that all of your containers say they can hold and then divide that by 20, then add about 2 ounces to that for margin of error and you will be close enough.
If you are making 10 — 8 oz candles, then that requires 4lbs of wax. Like the content? Buy me a coffee! If you make candles from old wine bottles or soda cans are you infringing on trademark rules?

Always Measure Wax by Weight. Many beginners assume the same amount of wax is needed for a container as water. The idea is if a jar holds 16 ounces of water, it must also hold 16 ounces of wax.
This is a common misconception. Think of it like a jar filled with glass marbles.
