Hello in this video we are going to learn how to make birthday candles with silicone molds. If you don't have a silicone mold, don't worry you can buy them for example innovate and you the cheapest one cost just $2 the ones with letters or numbers as I have, but there are plenty of designs. You can find them under cookie staff or under ice tray. The ones for cook are more flexible than the ice tray but both of them will work perfect. So first, we have to apply a release agent to the mold in all the areas that the paraffin is going to touch them all. If you don't have really saved agent, you can use cocoa.

This is our substitute from home. I just put it with gloves, but you can use this point if you want. Also remember my advice from class one that if you had to clean them off, never use water and soap yes have to use release agent While the paraffin is melting, we have to prepare our mold and then we have to prepare our wait. For these we need the paraffin already melt. So we got a threat and we have to nurse it in the paraffin about five times between each coat we have to let it dry a little bit. At the end the week we'll have triple its original volume.

I prefer two colors just to show you how to combine them without mixing them. These first one our one color, and we need to refill the mod just to the top. Very important you have to pay attention where you start because then you will have to continue in this order. The paraffin is transparent but after a short while, you will see that it becomes a pack. This is how we will know when it's ready to continue. To make two colors, candles, you have to just feel a little bit with the first color and wait until we get a little attack to start with dealing with the second color, and this way they won't mix.

The temperature of the paraffin that we're working is the same like for the lamps from my first class, as close as when you bend the container, you'll see that it leaves a tank of puffing. Honest right, and this is when it's ready to use. Well, we know it's ready to continue in the precise moment that the perfect turns complete attack. That thesis doesn't mean that it's going to be cold. We needed to be warm. So this way, the therapist is going to Like a blade dog.

Remember, where is the one that you started first, so we have to follow this order. Take it out of the mold and put a stick on one side and then the week on the other one. If you don't have a week opener, that's as I do, you can use a stick or something sharp. You will notice that maybe you smash it a little bit, but don't worry because you can fix it. Remember that the texture of the paraffin is like a plate though. So you put the stick and the week and you just leave it on the side.

Be careful and that you need to make the candle very straight because when it gets cold you won't be able to change or to move the stick or the week Now I will fast in the video and I will finish my 10 candles. I recommend to refill the silicone molds and wait close to it because it takes about 15 minutes to get a pack and if you forget and then try to make it when the paraffin it's called, you won't be able to do it and you will break the candles making the holes. So after you have the paraffin melt, I think it took me 30 minutes. To make the complete process for the 10 candles. I heartily recommend you to take a look of my first class. In this one I explained more deeply about the materials and the main process.

Of melting coloring and adding a fence to the parking. I also think that it's a good idea to have all your elements next to you, because this process that we're doing now is very fast. So you have to have your scissors, cutter, we speak we weeks openers and something to fix the candles. If you smash them, just next to you Well, we have our candles ready, you can use any form you want. For example letters will be great to make names or message to your friends. So this is all about silicone molds candles.

In next video, we will learn how to use a cookie cutter to make candles
