HELLO FRIENDS!! As you may know, I am a lover of all things candle... and thanks to fellow candle enthusiasts that share my fascination with melty, stretchy wax, I’ve discovered the pinnacle of candle crafting, that I HAD to get my grubby little hands on: oh-so-satisfying ✨candle carving✨. In this video, we ventured into Appalachia, where candle carving pros taught me how to master the craft. After numerous attempts, I think I came out with a winner… right?! What craft should I try next? Or should I just get a bunch of vats and turn into a candle carving channel??
