In reply to Vicki. I bought a large bag of soy wax and melted it according to the directions on the bag. I used a 16 ounce mason jar. As far as the wicks, I think it was 8 inches? I can't remember! I'm so sorry! I know I got them at Hobby Lobby. Hope that helps!

How much soy wax do you use? Is there a certain kind i should use, i guess there is such a selection of soy wax hahaha. They also said there is lots of different wick sizes too, and what size jars should i use too lol….lots of questions

In reply to Jill Ellison. I know, right? It's kinda infuriating. These definitely worked better. So glad to have you, Jill!

In reply to Nicole {WonkyWonderful}. I agree! Citronella SCENT, rather than actual Citronella?? GRRR!!! No wonder those store-bought candles never worked!! I'm a newbie here so I'm just seeing this. I am DEFINITELY making these next summer!

The store bought variety doesn’t have real mosquito repellent!?! … What a scam! But, on a brighter note – Your candles are lovely. Thanks for the tip 🙂

Really cool. I always buy these, but now I will be making my own! They are so much cuter too. Stopping by from Mingle with us. I would be so grateful if you would link up a post at Mom's Library! Thanks for sharing!
