You don’t have to have expensive lids for your candles, you can have a simple paper lid that tells what you want to about the candle that has just been purchased. Once you have all your candle wax melted and poured into the container and it’s cooled. Then you go to Microsoft word and print the lid that you want. The design will be anything that you think would make the candle more eye catching. Cut it any way you and pierce it so the wick can go through.

Key Takeaways:

  • You will need tools such as a card stock, printer, a document program, some scissors and either a paring knife or hole punch.
  • After the max has melted it is time to add a fragrance or dye, and make sure the wax is between 175 and 180 degrees.
  • When the wax is cooled off it is time to trim the wick down and put the lid over the candle.

“Using either regular scissors or any type of craft scissors, cut along the lines of the shape you used to create your lid layout.”
