Lavender is one of the most soothing fragrances in the world. Not only is lavender emotionally relaxing, but it is also a pest repellant and a great antibacterial agent. Burning a lavender candle can help with sleep, and fend off mosquitos at the same time. Candles can be expensive to buy ready-made, but making candles at home is very affordable and also can be a really fun hobby. I had been wanting to make candles for a while now, so when I found this dried lavender mason jar candle video tutorial by Sustain My Craft Habit on YouTube, I knew this was the tutorial that was going to get me started on my new candle making hobby.
