A colleague of BBs knows we are into self reliance asked her if she wanted some candle wax? Well of course (the last person asked if she wanted an airgun!). So She brought the box home. Must have been 50 pounds of scented coloured candle wax in there!
I made some half pound wax candles in saved coffee jars

The ice cream tubs contain wicks - they should also give an idea of the size of the box of wax
Reckon I could be making candles for some time - given 12 pounds of wax has gone, I think we have at least three times that left - still, I'm only into it for the cost of the wick
