Instructions

    • 1

      Fill a four oz. oil bottle with about two oz. of carrier oil. Oils such as coconut, flax seed, sunflower and pure vegetable oil provide a scentless base in which fragrance oil is evenly distributed.

    • 2

      Create a blend of essential oils to make a scent you are satisfied with. Practice using a plastic pipette for each different scent of essential oil. This prevents you from accidentally mixing the oils in the bottles.

      An example of a delightful candle fragrance blend would be a quarter oz. each of lavender, rose geranium, ylang ylang and jasmine. Mix the blend into a glass bowl.

    • 3

      Add the ounce of mixed essential oils to the glass bottle containing the carrier oil.

    • 4

      Secure the lid onto the oil bottle, and shake it vigorously. This allows the essential oils to mix with the carrier oil. This thins out the scent a bit so that it can be added to your homemade candle formula.
