History Candle Making Colonial Times

History Candle Making Colonial Times

Candles have been around for centuries, with the first candles being made by the ancient Egyptians and Romans. However, it was not until the colonial times that candle making became a true art form.

Back then, candles were made from various types of wax, including beeswax, tallow, and bayberry. The candles were then moulded into various shapes and sizes, and often decorated with intricate designs.

Candle making was a popular pastime among the colonial women, and each woman had her own unique method for making candles. Some would use a mould, while others would just use their hands to form the candles.



The candles were then either used for lighting or to scent the room. Bayberry candles, in particular, were popular for their pleasant smell.

Candle making continued to be popular throughout the 1800s, and even into the early 1900s. However, with the advent of electricity, candles slowly started to lose their popularity.

Today, candle making is once again becoming popular, as people are looking for ways to reduce their reliance on electricity. And with all the different types of wax and scents available, there is sure to be a candle for everyone.
