Rosemary and lemon are both popular scents that many people enjoy, but have you ever considered combining the two to make a fragrant candle? The resulting aroma is not only refreshing and invigorating, but it also has a calming effect on your senses. Imagine walking into your home and being greeted by the crisp and clean scent of lemon blended with the herbal aroma of rosemary. It’s a perfect combination to create a warm, homely atmosphere.

Making your own Rosemary and Lemon candle is a simple process that can be accomplished with just a few ingredients. You will need soy wax, rosemary essential oil, lemon essential oil, a wick, and a container to pour the wax into. The size of the container will depend on how much wax you want to use, and the amount of essential oil you add will depend on the strength of scent you desire.
