🧵 2. Quick How-To (Step-by-Step)
1.​ Stick wick to jar center using sticker​

2.​ Set jar aside, prep your workspace​

3.​ Melt wax using double boiler​

4.​ Measure temp — cool slightly before fragrance​

5.​ Add fragrance, stir slowly for 1–2 mins​

6.​ Pour into jar gently​

7.​ Center the wick using tool or DIY hack​

8.​ Let it sit undisturbed for 24–48 hours​

9.​ Trim wick before lighting — 1/4 inch​

10.​Light. Enjoy. Feel the vibe.​

❌ Avoid These Beginner Mistakes:


●​ Don’t pour wax when too hot (fragrance will disappear!)​

●​ Don’t forget to clean jars beforehand​

●​ Don’t skip wick centering​

●​ Don’t use essential oils (they’re not candle-safe)​

●​ Don’t burn before full cure (24–48 hrs min, 72 hrs optimal)​

💜 SOSA Tips:
●​ Use calming scents like lavender or vanilla for first-time success​
●​ Keep a notebook to track your recipes and results​

●​ Create in small batches — less waste, more joy!​

●​ Light your first candle with intention: this is your self-care ritual now ✨​
