Step-by-Step Bubble-Free Candle Jar Crafting 🧵
Step 1: Lid Mold Magic
Start by pouring smoothly mixed Boowannite halfway into the lid mold.
🌟 Pro Tip: Grab that fine brush and gently sweep along the mold’s edges and textured areas to help release trapped air. Then fill up the mold and sweep again—it’s all in the wrist! 🖌️✨
Step 2: Jar Mold Jiggle
Pour Boowannite halfway into the jar mold next.
🌟 Pro Tip: Lift and gently shake the mold to help air bubbles rise to the surface. Next, lightly knead the mold’s edges and texture, and don’t forget the bottom—massage those bubbles away! 🤲🌀
Step 3: Shell Setup
Assemble the outer shell of the mold and give the bottom a good knead once more for good measure.
Step 4: Fill 'Er Up
Pour the remaining Boowannite into the mold.
🌟 Pro Tip: Tap the shell gently while pouring to help bubbles escape. 👏🕯️
Step 5: Refill Ready
Place your refill mold onto the magnetic wick centering setter, setting the stage for our next steps.
Step 6: Heat Gun Heroics
🌟 Pro Tip: Wave the heat gun over the mold to pre-warm it—a preemptive strike against bubbles. 🔫🔥
Step 7: Center Stage for the Wick
Use the magnetic wick centering setter to easily find the center for your wick. Lock it in place, and you’re set!
Step 8: Wax on, Bubbles Gone
Melt the wax and monitor the temperature with your thermometer.
🌟 Pro Tip: Pouring between 70-80°C minimizes bubble formation—a slick trick! 🌡️👍
Step 9: Pour and Adore
Pour in the wax and let it set alongside the Boowannite. Patience is a virtue! 🕰️💧
Step 10: Mold Release
Once everything’s solidified, it’s time to demold and see your beautiful creation.
Step 11: Sealing the Deal
Apply sealing wax for a gorgeous finish. Voilà, perfection! ✨🎉
