Making Candles from Old Wax

I am making candles from left over candle wax. Does anyone know an alternative way to get rich colour in them apart from buying candle dyes? Many thanks.

Just pop a wax crayon into the candlewax when melting - you will be surprised at the rich colour that results! I put some essential oil into the wax too, so that I get a lovely smell when they burn.

Koolaid usually works as a good dye too

Well, when my mother used to make candles she used crayons for color. That might work for you too.
