The book was not only informative but gave clear instructions, history on wax, and even what were used for ritual purposes.

It also helped me to figure out how to build my own business.

I highly recommend for your book shelf.

This book is very complete if you plan to have your own business. I started a micro business and this book offers a lot of informations, how to create your own projects, how to sell, ideas like how can you prepare your workshop. She present histories of sucess entrepreneurs, how to control prices, how to creat a market to sell your candles. Also table measurements, charts, how to test your recipes, etc. So the books is divided in two parts, the first one is “for fun”, she teaches you how diversify your product with hundreds of information. The second part is “for profit” how to create projects for profit. The book shows some couple pictures but one of them drop my mouth. It is colored picture showing a candle of a Moai, the stone of Easter Island, it is fantastic work. This book is a very usefull for my business and for this reason I gave him a 5 stars because I consider as investment for my business. Thanks Michelle.

I picked this up a few years ago at a discount bookshop and have kept it around though I’m not certain why. There are lovely full-color photos, but most of the book is common sense candlemaking advice which you might find online for free. To anyone that’s made candles before, the book offers little help.

This book is vague at best. There is not alot of specific info on making candles or running a business. This is an OK book if you find it used and cheap, but your money is better spent on a different book if you want specific technical info on how to make candles.
