Soy Candles

 Kia Ora Bloggers,


Today we had so much fun creating our own soy candles. This year we have been focusing on our well-being and thinking of ways to look after ourself and emotions. One of the ways is creating an environment or atmosphere where it's calming and soothing. 

In our class, we have bunches of lavender which are hung near the window to dry. This creates a nice look for our room and a beautiful scent. 

As part of our learning, we decided to learn about states of matter and create our very own lavender scented soy candles. Followed by procedural writing. Our workshop included maths - as we had to measure, weigh and check the temp. Science to see how the wax changed its form and how to mix the fragrance and a whole lot more. Next time we will use to lavender petals as an extra touch to the tealight candles.

Thanks to Ecolyte (Isha) for organising our candle making equipment and freebies <3.
