Calculate your wax needs like a pro. For 10 cups at 17g each, you need 170g of wax. But remember, fragrance is coming to crash the party, so don't get too attached to that number. Fragrance Fiascos: Aim for 8% fragrance fabulousness, but feel free to flirt between 6-10%. Subtract this scent-sational amount from your wax total to avoid a waxy overflow. Wax Melting Magic: Cozy your wax into the aluminium jug and give it a warm bath in the double boiler. Consult the thermometer – it's your wax-whisperer. Wick-Wooing in Tea Light Cups: While your wax is chilling in the hot tub, get those wicks in place with your trusty glue gun or stickums. Aim for centre – it's not just a good look, it's functional. Dye Drama & Fragrant Flair: Jazz up your wax with color and fragrance – but timing is everything! Add color first, then fragrance at the just-right temperature to keep it strong and true. Pouring Panache: Temperature check, then pour! Use your fancy funnel jug for a no-mess experience. Keep those wicks upright – nobody likes a lopsided flame. Curing Cool-Down: Give your tea lights a day to chill and set before lighting up your life. Patience is a virtue, especially when it smells this good!
