Book Reviews of The Complete Candlemaker: Techniques, Projects, and Inspirations
Book Review: The pictures alone will Excite you!
Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoyed this book. The author really goes into details to make your candle making experience as unique and hassle-free as possible. As this books teaches you the basics of container, molded, and taper candles, it builds on more creative projects from there. The book instantly gets the reader excited about making candles for profit or pleasure just by looking at the pictures. Unfortunately, the only reason i did not give it the 5th star is because there were many pictures from other galleries, etc and i wish i had the instructions on making some of those candles.
Summary of The Complete Candlemaker: Techniques, Projects, and Inspirations
More than pretty pictures and hot air, this candle book has real substance as well as beautiful photos. Readers learn how to make 40 kinds of candles: hand-dipped tapers, rolled beeswax pillars, molded candles, votives, sand and water candles, and ice, chunk, floating, hurricane, and cut-and-curl candles. Mail-order resource included. 145 color photos.In Norma Coney's comprehensive guide to candle-making techniques, handsome color photos and detailed text illustrate how to make 40 different kinds of candles, a number of them unusual (marbleized, tie-dyed, carved--even appliquéd). There are some amazing candles here, such as the water candle (in which a pillar candle is surrounded by what look like rolling waves of wax), sand candles, and cut-and-curl tapers.
