These adorable mason jar candles make for great holiday gifts! And guess what, they are scent customizable!!! How cool is that?!?!? These candles rock and they are also super cute to put around your home!!

Here's how to make them!

All you need is: (for 2 candles)

2 mason jars

Parowax (it's this great wax that you can buy at your local grocery store; use 2 blocks of wax for each candle)

2 pencils

2 washers (the small metal plate shaped things they sell at hardware stores)

String (for the wick; we used baker's twine)

Double boiler (we used two pots, one smaller than the other, the bottom pot filled 1/4 with water)

Extract (any kind will do; we used peppermint (shown) and coconut)
