DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice Candles - Nov 2022 | Jennifer Meckel
DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice Candles

This fun autumn DIY is perfect for bringing the warm, cozy feeling of the season into your home! Cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom and more combine for a perfect fall scent. Adding whole spices adds even more scent and beauty to these candles, making them a wonderful gift as well!

Supplies Needed:

Step 1 - Thread the wicks through a wick holder and apply the wicks tabs firmly to the bottom of your jar or container using glue dots or hot glue.

Step 2 - Place the jars on a baking sheet/tray and keep in the oven set at the lowest temperature until you are ready to pour the wax. Warming the containers helps the wax to distribute in the container evenly.

Step 3 - Melt beeswax in a double boiler. Heat and stir until the wax has fully melted and no solids remain.

Step 4 - Let the wax cool to 155°F / 68°C. Then stir in the essential oils

Step 5 - Carefully fill each container to about 1 cm below the rim of the jar. Be careful that the wicks stay in the center of the container.

Step 6 - Sprinkle with a pinch of pumpkin spice and arrange whole spices as desired. You'll know you can decorate the candle when the wax becomes cloudy and sets around the edges.

Step 7 - Let the candles cool at room temperature (not the refrigerator!) for several hours or better overnight. Allowing the wax to cool slowly will create the best-looking candles and helps to avoid crack.

Step 8 - Once the candles are hard, remove the wick holder and trim the wicks to 1/4 in / 0.6 cm.

Hello! I'm Jennifer Meckel

 

I am very passionate about helping you achieve the best YOU that you can be!


A little about myself. I live in the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. I am married to a wonderful and supportive man named Sean since 2003 - all wonderful years. We have two smart and sassy daughters, Emmy is 10 and in 4th grade in the Mandarin Immersion program and Lilly is 6 and in kindergarten. I like to paper craft and make my own cards, I like to sew (though don’t have much time for that lately) and I just returned to belly dancing now that Lilly is getting bigger.


I’ve been using essential oils and infused products for since October 2015 and absolutely love this lifestyle and how it makes me and my family feel. I started my oily journey after sitting next to another mom at a play date.  We started talking about my infertility issues, and she suggested I try Young Living’s essential oils to support my hormones.  After a year of intentionally exercising, eating better, and using oils to support my hormones and emotions, I became pregnant with Lilly, right before my first time attending the International YL Convention in Salt Lake City in 2016. There is so much more to tell about this story, and I’m open and willing to share with you, if you are interested.


So, tell me more about yourself!  Tell me about the season of life you are in now. Tell me about your family. 


In health, wellness, and abundance!
