Basic Candle Making: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started
Book is very usefull because the author put how to do in every step of making candles. Every single detail is treated with the most absolute precision, starting from the supplies, pan, scale up to temperature, measurements, something that it is little rare to find in another books. I bought 9 books in one batch, all are very good, but this one shows the basic for a beginner like me.
thanks Eric, hope to see more books from you.

A fantastic “How to” book. From start to finish, great instructions and pictures. Very easy to follow and covers “Everything”! If you want to make candles, this is the book for you!

I bought the book with just a little knowledge of the candle making industry. The problem with the book is its not updated for the new technology and materials that are used in candle making today. Yes it does a good job of breaking down the VERY BASICS but thats it. You need to know more about the industry than this book covers. I got more information from watching videos on youtube and the different candle supply companies websites than the couple of books I recently purchased. Watch videos and get up to date information on new waxes and materials. Save yourself the $15 or whatever you may spend and research the internet and the big candle supply companies out there. They know whats new and what works

This is a great book if you’ve never read anything about candlemaking previously. I didn’t realize it was going to be so ’simple’. It’s extremely basic and I found it almost childlike. It’s very easy to understand, has good pictures, and would be great if you are a real beginner.

I started candle making several months ago. I wish I had had this book on Day 1. I pretty much figured out the basics on my own, but would have saved a lot of time (and mistakes) if I had had this book to start with. It’s Candle Making 101: basic, simple, step by step, and lots of photos. A great book if you are just starting out.
