Here is my huge mess pouring wax into these tiny embed molds. I was getting sick of the mess, cleaning everything up, and all the waste. I wanted to come up with a better way that saved time and money.
This day and age we want to find and use methods that save us wax, soap and time cleaning up. I am all for methods that create a cleaner, less frazzled work space and make better use of my wax.
All you have to do is venture into your kitchen to find this wax saving tool. It is your regular everyday spoon. I know that I am using candle wax in the video, but you can also do this with soap.
First melt your candle wax, then take the spoon and spoon the wax into the opening of the silicone mold. This is one of my new silicone molds that you see here.
If you have any candle making questions leave your questions in the comment section below.
Happy candle and soap making!
Many Blessings,

Soaps, candles, and candy all work the same. An easy way to get into the tiny molds with out a mess is to use a pastry bag. (I have been a cake decorator for too many years to mention) You can buy the disposable plastic bags at any cake supply store Just be sure the wax and soap are not to hot to handle when putting in the pastry bag. You can cut the hole in the end as large or small as you need. Good Luck………

Thanks so much for that tip Joyce. That is great . I have a few of those bags myself. I have been experimenting in my silicone mold lab
. I will have to try it out.
I have been trying to figure ways to reduce waste. Part of my whole saving money in my business plan.
