Home Made Candles

25


25 per unit - Virtual OK - Posted Jan 18, 2017

I will create a home made candle for you. I have four different types of molds. I have a taper candle mold, a small jack o'lantern mold, a rosebud mold, and a small votive mold. I can also dye the candle in a few colors, but can only make a solid color candle.

Pricing chart for extras and the like
25 Simbi for one undyed candle picked up locally
10 Simbi for a extra candle (must be different shape)
5 Simbi for dye
5 for shipping
Free candle making advice if you want it (no need to get a candle for it)

To recap, Dyeing the candles costs a little bit of extra simbi if you are trading with that. I need about five extra simbi if I have to ship the candles. The limit of how many candles you can order at one time is two. And there is a charge of ten extra simbi per candle, and they all need to be different shapes. Otherwise it can take hours to keep waiting on the candle to harden, remove it, and make another, over and over again. If you want some advice on how to get started making your own, I will be happy to give it to you! You don't need to order a candle for the advice, I can just give it to you.

Training & Qualifications


I have been making candles for quite a bit now! I have forty pounds of wax, a pouring pot, eight dyes, 200 chopsticks, mold sealer, a mold threader, a laser thermometer, and four different molds. Occasinally I have lilac scent, but that varies.

Availability & Preferences


I am usually free all night and morning on weekends, and in the mornings on weekdays. No shipping outside US. I can't do international shipping for free.

Trading Preference: I prefer being paid in simbi

Thank you for the candles! There was a little breakage in shipping--a little more bubble wrap would probably take care of that next time. Look forward... to using them!show more

Taylor's requests


Taylor is requesting
Teach me how to spin yarn
I have tried to learn how to use a drop spindle online, but I can't seem to get the hang of it like I did with knitting and crocheting. I think if someone helped me out once I could do it.

Renaissance fair costume
I want to dress up but don't really have the skills or resources to make or buy said costume. I want a tunic, cloak, and kilt. I will give you my measurements once we work out the deal.

About Taylor Goldsmith

I am a 21 year old guy living in an apartment with a bunch of roommates and my fiance, Matt. I have a pet mouse and a few houseplants. I work as a janitor. I love animals, and my favorite things to wa...tch are nature documentaries. My hobbies are reading and crafting. Those two things are the main parts of my life that I find the most fulfilling. I love the fulfilment of completing a project and knowing that I made something new and useful. I love the thrill of reading a book. My most recent crafting hobby is candlemaking, and my oldest is knitting. I have been knitting since I was a teenager, and picked up candlemaking several months ago. I have just about anything you could ever need or want for knitting, but only have a boxful of supplies for candlemaking. I have forty pounds of soy wax, a pouring pot, a thermometer, three molds, a ton of wicks, a scale, and eight dyes. My favorite book genres are fantasy, science fiction, and horror, though I love non fiction too! I will read just about anything though. I have over five hundred kindle books and around two hundred physical books. I have been a practicing pagan for quite a bit now. I am eclectic, I believe every god or goddess exists, but I tend to worship Nordic gods and godesses, particularly Freya and Frey. I am. Particulary proficient in using crystal magic and rune divination, though I am trying to learn to read tarot cards as well. I am also transgender and bisexual. show more
