Earlier I have posted some of the interesting projects on how to make candles at home. Though most of them were specific to scented candles and making them in some random shapes. In this curation post, I am going to list some of the ideas on making the candles. If you have tried making candles at home or have any tutorial outside steem then do let me know. I'd love to list that here. 

Check out some of the tutorials on how to make candles at home. 

<center>**Funfetti Candles**

I like this idea because it's perfect for the kids. And you can also use this in their room. Or you can keep this in a room where you want to make fancy design. The candle made through this tutorial will surely be catching lot of eyes. It's simple and also it's beautiful in terms of the colorful design. So if you want to try something fancy then definitely worth taking a look at this tutorial. Just make sure that you use this as a scented candle for decor instead of burning it if you choose to make use of the paper straw.

**Herb Candles**

When you want to smell the herbs such as lavender. Then you should check out this tutorial. The tutorial here makes use of the lavender. You can make use of the other herbal flavor if you want. Also they are making use of the mason jar here. You can try some other type of the container small or big depending on your comfort. This is worth checking out if you have more of medicinal or freshener type of the candle requirement.
