🎄 DIY Gingerbread House Candles 🏠✨

If you’re looking for the most aesthetic homemade Christmas gift, this is it! These soy wax gingerbread houses are surprisingly easy to make and look so high-end on a mantle. 🕯️🎁

What You’ll Need:

Soy Wax Flakes (natural & clean burning!)

Gingerbread House Silicone Mold

Cotton Wick

Small Gold Bell

Twine

The Step-by-Step:

Prep the Wick: make a small hole through the top of the mold and Slide your cotton wick through.

Melt & Scent: Melt your soy wax in a double boiler. Once it reaches about 185°F .Let it cool slightly (around 135°F) for the smoothest finish!

The Pour: Carefully pour the wax into your gingerbread mold. Tap the sides gently to get rid of any air bubbles in the tiny window details.

Set & Gift: Let it harden for at least 4 hours (or overnight). Gently peel back the silicone, place a bell on the wick & twist it for a cute curl then add a bow with twine to the base of the wick. Now you have the perfect handmade gift! 🎀
