Using a razor knife, carefully cut the beeswax sheets into pieces 6.5 in. wide and 8 in. tall.
Trim your wick to 1 in longer than your candle. Since we are making 8-in tall candles, trim the wick to 9 in.
Lay your wick at one end of the sheet.
Begin to curl the wax around the wick, moving from one end to the other as shown in the photo. Beeswax sheets are pretty pliable, so if they crack, it is fairly easy to fix as you go by pressing and squeezing. However, if the sheet is too brittle, then use a hair dryer and run it over the area for a few seconds- just enough to soften, not melt.
Keep rolling the candle. I like my candles to be nice and tight, so rolling slowly and pressing firmly helps.
When you reach the end, use your fingernail to press the end of the wax into the candle to keep it from coming loose.
Your candle is done! Use it as you would other candles.
