Prepare Your Workspace: Start by cleaning your 4-ounce glass jar or tin container to ensure a pristine surface for your candle. Gather all your ingredients, including soy wax flakes, coconut wax, and your chosen essential oils. Set up your double boiler or heat-safe bowl and saucepan, making sure everything is within easy reach for a smooth candle-making experience.

Melt the Wax: In your double boiler, combine the soy wax flakes and coconut wax. Heat the mixture over medium heat for about 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally until everything is melted and smooth.

Cool the Wax: Once your wax is melted, carefully remove it from the heat and let it cool for about 2 minutes.

Add the Fragrance: Stir in the cocoa absolute, vanilla essential oil, and sandalwood oil, mixing thoroughly.

Secure the Wick: Position the pre-waxed wick in the center of your jar using a pencil to hold it steady.

Pour the Wax: Gently pour the scented wax into your container, leaving about ½ inch of space at the top.

Add the Crystals: Before the wax sets completely, place your cleaned and charged tumbled crystals gently atop the surface.

Cool and Set: Allow your candle to cool and set at room temperature for 4–6 hours.

Trim the Wick: Once cooled, trim the wick to about ¼ inch before lighting.

Light and Enjoy: With your candle ready, light it up and bask in the comforting aroma.
