The following text is for questions 18 to 20
Tool and Ingredient: 
 wax molds, 
 wick, 
 dye discs, 
 essential oils, and
 a double boiler.

Steps:
1. Melt the wax. All wax has a flash point, so to prevent it bursting into flames, you must melt it in a double boiler, with water in the bottom pan.
2. Prepare the mold with the wick. Thread the wick through the mold and make sure that you leave a good few centimetres sticking out of the hole in the bottom.
3. After that, add the scent. If you want a scented candle, add a few drops of essential oil to the melted wax. You can use any essential oil you like, as long as it doesn't contain water.
4. Next step, pour the wax into the mold. Try and tip the wax into the mold quickly, all in one go, to minimize spillage and air bubbles.
5. Then, release the bubbles and top it up. Releasing the air bubbles will eventually make the candle sink, so you will need to top it up with more melted wax.
6. Finally, remove it from the mold. After four or five hours, the candle can be taken out of its mold.
7. Your candle is now ready for display. Remember, you must always leave it for a day before lighting
