CANDLES



          Candle will continue to play a vital role in the Nigerian society as long as the electricity supply in Nigeria continues to be inefficient. The production is easy once you lay hands on the materials and a good candle mould. The raw materials are procured locally.
Raw Materials:
1.    Candle wick or thread
2.    Candle mould
3.    Heat
4.    Paraffin wax
5.    Pot
6.    Kettle
7.    Colorant if desired
8.    Stand
The paraffin wax is the main chemical, which enables the candle to form block (solidify) when cold. Colorant is used to give different colours to the candles if so desired.
          The thread or wick enables the light to burn through paraffin wax.
          Mould is the container in which the entire mixture is poured into, the stand holds the thread straight. Heat comes from either stove or firewood to melt the wax.
