This will be a short review as the book really wasn't that thick. I will say that I found all projects in this book relatively easy to do. They are small projects, do not require alot of material & surprising dont't take up alot of time. After doing them for about 3 months, I felt I no longer needed the book & stuck with the few that I can do without major complications. Since reading this book I have gotten molds for multiple pillar sizes, essential oils & materials for taper dipping. I loved this book! I make the same candles that cost way more & the homemade ones smell just about as good. (I can't top yankee candle). I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is starting out as a beginner, or even as a refresher.
