Making homemade Pot O’ Gold Chunk candle is not only simple, but fun. First, you’ll want to melt pillar wax in a double boiler to create the green shamrocks and mold them. The same thing goes for the golden coins, adding fragrance as you go and both should be lightly brushed with mica so they shine. Then, you should use hot glue to hold them all in place with the wick in the candle jar. Finally, pour over white paraffin wax, and now you have a decorative candle!

Key Takeaways:

  • Creating Pot O’ Gold candles for St. Patrick’s day is simple and fun.
  • The best way to melt the wax for the candles is in a double boiler.
  • You should use basic container wax for the base and add as little, or as much fragrance as you desire.

“You may also wish to add a small amount of green or gold dye, but make sure not to add too much or you won’t be able to see the chunks.”
