To prepare the pillar candle mould, thread the wick through the base of the mould, then tie a lollipop stick to the end of the wick.
Pull the wick through the base to that it's nice and tight, and secure with a blob of Blue Tac.
Pour the soya wax flakes into a jug, and then microwave until fully melted.
Stir in the scent, pour into the mould and allow to cool for around 3-4 hours.
Release the candle from the mould.
Shake nail varnish on top of the room temperature water in the bucket.
Wearing protective gloves, dip the candle into the bucket slowly, and then place onto a protected surface to dry fully for a few hours.
Can you advise which paint to use and how much for the marbling effect please?
