Chunk Palm Pillar Candles


I made these as Christmas gifts for my friends. Hope they love them. 
I used 4 pounds of Palm Pillar wax to make these 5 candles. 2 pounds for the chunks and 2 pounds for the overpour. The chunks are scented with Pumpkin Crunch Cake and the overpour is Coconut Cream Pie. CD 18 wick works great for this size Palm Pillar. I didn't get the Palm patterns on the outside of the candle but I think it is because they cooled too quickly. From what I understand you really have to control the temperature when the wax is cooling. Since they are chunk style I think they still look really beautiful even without the pattern.  They are 4 inches tall and 3 inches in  diameter. I used 2 ounces of fragrance oil per pound and these candles smell divine!
