Begin by melting your beeswax in a double boiler over medium heat. If you don't have a double boiler, you can use a large glass or metal bowl set over a pot of boiling water.
Once the beeswax is melted, dip the metal base of the candle wick into the wax and set it into the candle container. Roll the excess wick around a wooden skewer or pencil and set it on top of the container. Alternatively, you can use a clothespin. This will help the wick to stay in place while you pour the wax.
If you would like to add essential oils, add the desire amount to the melted beeswax before pouring it into the container.
Slowly and carefully pour the wax into the container.
Allow the candle to cool completely. Once set, trim the wick to 1-inch above the wax.
