ABSTRACT:
This application discloses a method for making a candle with stones, or other desired articles, cast into the candle about the periphery thereof. This is accomplished by the use of a two step casting process, wherein a smaller core of the candle is first cast, and this core is then placed in a larger mold of substantially identical shape. The stones or other articles are then placed in the larger mold between the smaller core and the inner wall of said mold until the space therein is completely filled. Wax is then poured into the larger mold to cast these articles into the surface of the candle. Since the wax at this point will almost completely cover the articles, which are of a decorative nature and of which more of the surface should be exposed, the candle, after it has cooled, is repeatedly dipped in hot wax to remove some of the surface wax from the candle with each dipping, and then cooled by dipping the candle in water. Repetitions of this process results in the removal of a substantial amount of wax from the outside of the candle, leaving the surface of the decorative stones or other items more fully exposed to produce a very attractive candle. The finishing step to remove excess wax and smooth rough spots is in the form of exposing the surface of the candle to a concentrated heat source, such as a propane torch.
