It would be hard to estimate the number of homes in the modern world that have candles in them in one form or another but I imagine it would be well over 85%. They would be there for the purposes of a light source, for aromatherapy, for religious purposes and to create atmosphere to name a few.
The use of candles has been around for thousands of years and of course in the beginning it was used as a light source and for heating. Using candles as a décor item would never have been thought of. Over the years the methods have changed substantially and there are also different products used in the candle making as it is today. More colors and more candle fragrances are available, although some candles makers still prefer to use natural scents for their candles, keeping them as organic as possible.
Hobbyist Candle Makers.
Some hobbyists use commercial candles as a base on which to build their unique style of candle whilst other hobbyists like to make their own candle from the very beginning, including making their own wax and wicks.
There are many different ways to make candles and also to enhance candles with embeds and embellishments of products, by layering wax, layering colors, by reshaping candles, using different molds and so much more. Candle making is a very creative art and one that lends itself to original products made by people with a wild imagination.
Many people just like to make their own candles and also give them away for presents but other people are starting to see that with their creative expression they can make an extra income by making candles at home.
Candle Making Home Based Business
There are many different candle to make for the retail sector and there are different ways for a home candle maker to sell their products. Firstly the idea is to perfect the candle making then test the market, then expand the range and the outlet base for selling so that income levels continue to grow.
