Skip the store bought wax tarts and make your own, using your favorite essential oils. It’s an easy DIY project and you can double the batch for a larger quantity. For these tarts, we used grapefruit essential oil. The citrus scent makes the house smell wonderful! These homemade wax tarts make a great gift for Valentine’s Day or any occasion when paired with a wax warmer. If you are in Arizona, California or Utah, head to an As You Wish location to paint your own wax warmer.
SUPPLIES
1 cup soy wax
1 tbsp coconut oil
20-30 drops grapefruit essential oil
silicon mold
microwavable bowl
wax warmer

Step 2: Place 1 cup soy wax and 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a microwavable bowl. Microwave for 1 minute increments, stirring in between, until everything is melted.
Step 3: Mix in 20-30 drops of grapefruit essential oil to the wax mixture.
Step 4: Pour the wax mixture into a silicon mold and allow to harden overnight. Once they harden, pop them out of the mold.
