2.0 out of 5 stars Uninspiring!, 4 Feb 2009
By V. Bird "Ness" (Hove, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Thankfully I only borrowed this book from the library. My husband bought me a candle making kit for Christmas and I had such fun that I wanted to buy a book to learn more about candlemaking. I also rather fancied having a go at soap making so thought this book would be ideal. Wrong. This book is totally uninspiring, with only a handful of really naff dated colour pictures and an american author, I did not find myself wanting to turn the pages to read more. Possibly if you did trawl through the whole book it might tell you most of what you need to know, but I have better things to do with my time. This book has gone back to the library!

5.0 out of 5 stars Making Candles and Soap For Dummies, 22 April 2009
Brilliant book- explains the trade lingo and goes into depth about techniques and materials. Clear and concise. The book even gives tips how to go around setting up your own business in the candle and soap making industry. Smashing book for the beginner or pro! 5 whole stars!!
