Candles are an easy craft that can be made in the home. One of the best feature of candle is that you don't need to be able to draw to make them, own a sewing machine to sew them, or feel that you are epically gifted artistically.

If you are creative, love to make crafts, and have a great time with the creative process, then candles might be your best bet. You can get creative with containers, colors, and scents to create your own custom candles for sale on Etsy.

Have fun with the container to get a custom look. Jars, old bottles, and even teacups make great candleholders and are easy to find at local flea markets.
