DIY Essential Oil Candles

"I absolutely love essential oils! Every night, I diffuse lavender by my bed and have a special bedtime blend for Romeo. There's so much you can do with them, we decided to make DIY Essential Oil Candles, with soy, using two beautiful scents that go together well, lavender and lemon. Lavender oil has a calming effect that helps relieve stress and anxiety and lemon is great for cleaning and purification. The great thing about making your own essential oil candles is that you can create a custom scent for yourself or someone special! They make wonderful gifts!"
