I was using my nice keyword research tool and while searching my keywords ~ heart candles ~ I saw that browsers are already looking for heart floating candles. I thought this idea was great because I am not using my regular silicone molds for this. I am using heart tins and heart cookie cutters to make my simple floating heart candles.
This is what I used to make my floating candles. The tin I used is a bit a the big side. You have to put a lot of water in the bowl to make them float well. There are so many sizes of heart tins out there that you could have a nice variety of simple heart floating candles.
You can also use heart shaped cookie cutters, but I do not have one because the rivet broke on my heart. =) The next size heart cookie cutter I have the heart is about 1/2 inch at the widest point.
Directions For Making Floating Heart Candles:

I would test out the amount of water necessary for your heart floater. If you sell these and your hearts are on the big side, make sure you let your customer know the amount of water needed to make them float.
