missing pieces but everything worked great

I ordered this product twice in one week. The first one that arrived was missing the wick but the second had them and was enough to make full candles with both sets of wax. Using one sheet to make a candle made the candle very thin for each one so I used two sheets or cut them in half and wrapped it around twice and they looked great. Making small tea light type candles was not worth it as they only would burn for about 5-10 minutes. These candles burn very cleanly and were beautiful as the glow would shine through the outer layers of the beeswax so adding patterns to the outside would change the glow colors and look wonderful. So far this is the only kit I have found that comes with wick to make bees wax candles and the colors of wax that I got were great including some honey colored, pinks and reds, blues, greens, and oranges. The colors between the kits were similar though some were different shades and were not perfect matches.

Children and I love to make these candles!

My children got this from Santa this year for Christmas. We have already make 2 candles each. Even my 4 year-old has had no problem rolling up the candles. They look really nice, too. This would make a great gift for anyone. It comes nicely boxed and the colors of the candles are exactly as pictured. Directions are included for making other types of candles, not just the tapered ones. These are great!

Fun and educational

I bought this product for my children (4 & 7) so that they could make candles as Christmas presents for family & friends. The beeswax sheets were easy to work with, I warmed them a bit with a blow-dryer to make rolling easier. My 7 yr old was able to make candles completely on her own after I demonstrated for her, 4 yr old needed a little help :) They both had a lot of fun decorating the candles they made with shapes cut from scraps of wax sheets, and while they were busy crafting, we read the very information info sheet that came with the product and had a great discussion about bees and their work. The wax smells and feels wonderful and I was glad it was a natural, non-toxic product my girls could work with. I would definitely recommend this as a fun and educational craft to do with children.
