Book Reviews of Book of Candles
Book Review: Overall this book was really wonderful.
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was easy to read with wonderful pictures that really helped you understand what the finished candle would look like. The author used simple easy to follow language and gave you a list of all the tools needed for each project. She also gave you wonderful ideas to follow or use as a jumping off point for your own creations. The tools she suggests are things every one has or can find fairly easy, so there is no need to go to a specialty store or search forever, you can find pretty much everything you need at a Micheal's or craft store near you. So for anyone looking to begin making candles or just looking for creative new ways to make them I highly recomend this book to everyone.
Summary of Book of Candles
For sheer visual impact, it's pretty hard to beat Miranda Innes's impressive book, in which glorious color is set off dramatically against the white pages. Here are all types of candles, including beeswax, decorated, Christmas, and floating varieties, plus many types of holders. The section on decorating with candles offers beautiful tableaux of candles used in country, romantic, classic, ethnic, and contemporary settings. The final chapter features step-by-step instructions for making dipped, molded, rolled, scented, pressed-flower, and painted candles.DK's new line of paperback titles combines all the qualities of its hardcovers with the advantages of the soft cover format. Each of these already popular books will now be available to a large new readership who will delight in the essential elements of every DK title: clarity, educational value, and visual appeal.
