THE CANDLEMAKING DESIGN BOOK by Carol Feder

THE CANDLEMAKING DESIGN BOOK

By

Pub Date: March 1st, 1974
Publisher: Franklin Watts

A chapter on basic directions and common problems of candlemaking is followed here by precise, illustrated ""recipes"" which introduce advanced techniques such as sand molding, rolled wax sheets and decoupage and designs which accommodate every taste -- ranging from holiday novelties to creative ""free forms."" Feder doesn't seem to have teens and pre-teens specifically in mind but young craftsmen sufficiently responsible to handle the hazardous process of melting paraffin will find her directions easily understandable and safety-oriented.
