Happy Face Candle Mold Project

July 6, 2007 by SandraW

happy face candle moldThis is one of the first candle molds I used and it was fun and easy and turned out great. Here’s a pic of it. I think it looks better than the one displayed at the store. It was dyed brown and scented with spiced hot chocolate and I haven’t had the heart to burn it yet. Yellow candle paint was used to enhance the smile which I found at Michaels Craft Store. I got the mold, scent and dye at Village Craft and Candle in St. Marys Ontario but I’m sure it’s sold elsewhere.

They do sell mold clamps and stands but to be honest I wedged mine between a couple books and bought a couple clamps from the dollar store, taped up any holes and it turned out fine.
