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.
- Wax (can use crayons, beeswax or old candles.)
- Wicks
- Scissors
- Double broiler
- Dairy Pure Milk
- Extra Scent if desired
Directions:
1. Place the wax in the pan to melt
2. After wax is melted, add milk and scent if desired
3. Place the wick into the jar (May want to tape wick to a pencil or something to make sure it stays in the center of the jar while drying)
4. Pour melted wax into jar
5. After wax has hardened, trim wick to desired size, light and enjoy!
Milk has natural healing and calming enzymes. The less preservatives the better. That’s why Dairy Pure is so great. DairyPure milk “Starts Pure, Stays Pure”. DairyPure milk is the only milk to be backed for quality by a 5 Point Purity Promise.
I had never heard of making candles with milk. How unique!
I literally learn something new everyday. Ive never heard of milk candles but it sounds like something my sister would like.
I have never heard of Milk Candles. That is so creative!
I would love to make my own candles. It looks so easy!
I love making candles but I’ve never tried doing it with milk. Pretty awesome idea! Perfect for Christmas presents.
These would be fun to make. I will have to give it a try this weekend. Taping the wick to a pencil is a great way to keep it straight.
With the holidays coming up, I’m on the lookout for easy gift ideas my kids can help create. With the right supervision, they’ll be able to make a zillion of these!
This is so cool! I had no idea you could use milk to make candles.
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!
I have never heard of using milk in a candle before but they turned out great. They look easy to make too.
I have never heard of a milk candle before. How long is their shelf life once they’re made?

Oh wow! These are so super cool! I will definitely have to make some of these with my daughter!
I have never made my own candles before, let alone milk candles. How cool 🙂
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 🙂
