i want to try starting to make my own candles because candles are so expensive.

is it any cheaper at all to make your own then buy them?

because even raw beeswax seems pretty expensive.

like i can get 20 pounds of it for $175.

is that a good deal or an awful deal?
i don't know.

then i need to buy wicks and stuff.

i really want to make beeswax candles because they smell so yummy and last so long.

any tips on where to buy supplies like raw beeswax and wicks (and whatever else i need) let me know :)

thanks!
