There are two types
of sand candles. One type uses sand to shape a candle, but there is no sand on
the completed candle. The other type of sand candle actually incorporates the
sand into the finished candle as a shell.

These instructions for Sandy Sand Candles will show you how to make the second
type of sand candle, which results in a candle inside a sand shell. This process
involves super-heating wax,
which requires caution and dedicated attention. The added effort will be worth
it, when you light up your own unique sand candles to enjoy!
