DIY Peony Mason Jar Candles

Peonies are one of my favorite flowers. My favorite is when the petals are starting to bloom, the transition is short but so beautiful. Since peony season comes and goes in a flash, I wanted to make some peony scented candles to last throughout the year. This easy DIY mason jar candle is made with soy wax flakes, a pint size mason jar, and peony fragrance oil. Add a printable tag to give this homemade candle as a gift.

How to make mason jar candles

Making your own soy candles is easy to do. Find mason jars in various sizes or recycled jars from your kitchen to make your own candles. Once the candle wicks are centered inside, you can begin pouring the soy candle wax. How much wax you will need is going to depend on the size of the jar. I typically use about a pound for a pint-size jar. You can always quickly melt more wax to pour into your jar if needed.
