Homemade Milk Candles


This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of DairyPure Milk. All opinions are 100% mine.

Milk is naturally soothing and healthy for the skin and body. It has a sweet aroma and a beautiful thick and creamy color. We’re going to celebrate the naturally sweet aroma and creamy color by incorporating it into an easy to make a creamy, calming milk candle.

  2. I would have never thought to use milk for candles! Genius and I’m going to try this with fun holiday colors for a Christmas centerpiece!

  3. I have never heard of a milk candle but I am intrigued!Thanks for sharing something so neat!

  4. I have never made my own candles before, let alone milk candles. How cool 馃檪

  5. Interesting, I’d never thought to melt crayons down to make candles before- this could be a nice project for the holidays. I have however, added milk to my baths in the past- which I suppose may sound much stranger than making candles from crayons 馃檪
