DIY candles light up exams or holiday season
As exams approach, students should consider the little acts of self-care they can take to minimize their stress levels and brighten up their days. A candle’s ambient glow and faint lavender perfume helps calm nerves and refocus the brain, making it a great addition to any de-stressing routine. In addition to their relaxing use during exams, DIY candles also make fun gifts to give this holiday season.
Follow along the instructions below to make a scented candle right at home, for personal use or to give away.
As always, exercise caution when working with fire and do not leave the candle unattended.
