Making candles

Unread post by VanceG »

I am using up my trove of beeswax making candles to sell at a Christmas Market along with my honey. I wish I could just keep bees and didn't have to support my habit! I haven't made any candles for a couple years and I found I require a complete retraining! But I guess it is winter work and as I tell my wife, it keeps me out of the bars. She rude enough to tell me that I don't go to the bar anyway! They don't sell that well but I will have them to give for Christmas presents so I guess it is all OK.

Enjoying the Chinook here and we are supposed to be well above freezing days for a couple weeks and the bees are cleansing looking at my vehicle after I visited my winter yard.
