Who wouldn’t want to be the candlelight hero of their own?
The DIY / candle refill set includes instructions for casting a genuine Hetkinen veggie candle, vegetable wax, scent button, wooden candlewick with a base, and a label. With easy instructions, you can make an ecological, unique, and truly zero-waste candle. The candle-making process takes only 2 minutes of active making time when the mass melts.
After that, you can relax and wait as the mass solidifies.
When preparing the DIY / refill candle remember to make sure that the wooden candlewick stays upright straight.
The most rewarding step is when you get to finish the candle with the label (Hetkinen & I) and then enjoy the feeling of success. All you need to have at home is a microwave oven, a plate (that serves as a tray for the candle glass), and a glass where you cast the candle mass. This set can be used as a refill candle set for any 250ml glass container.

How to:
- Select a glass with a volume of 250 ml. If you have ordered a Hetkinen veggie candle, don’t dispose it after the product has run out. The empty glass is perfect for this!
- Place the glass of your choice on top of a heatproof plate.
- Pour approximately half of the wax mixture into the glass.
- Move the glass into the microwave oven using the plate.
- Heat the wax mixture with 800w for 1 minute until the wax mixture has melted.
- Carefully take the glass out of the microwave using the plate. Add the remaining wax mixture and scent button to the melted wax.
- Carefully move the glass back to the microwave and heat for another 800w for 1 minute until the whole wax mixture is completely melted.
- Very carefully, with the help of the plate, take the glass full of wax out of the microwave.
- Place the wooden candlewick in the middle of the glass, metal side downwards.
- Be careful not to move the candle until the wax has cooled.
- When the wax starts to cool, make sure that the wick stays in the middle.
- Once the wax is solid, you can glue the label.
- Trim the candlewick to 5 mm high if necessary.
- Enjoy a self-made ready candle.
