Other Ingredients & Equipment You'll Need:
Pot (for double boiler)
Stove
Scale
Stirring Spoon
Knife
Cutting Board
Wax paper
Apothecary Jar
Ziploc bags
Star Cookie Cutter
Spoons

Step 1:  Open 2 Ziploc bags and place 225 grams of Pillar of Bliss wax in each one.  Then, to each bag weigh out and add 18 grams of Democrat fragrance oil.  Now, to one bag place 4 drops of Spectrum Red Candle Dye.  Seal each Ziploc bag and vigorously shake to disperse.  Then, set aside.

Step 2:  Next, get your candle jar and using a hot glue gun, attach 2 CD-12 wicks to the bottom.  Make sure your wicks are equally spaced apart and centered.

Step 3:  Using the double boiler method, weigh out and melt 50 grams of beeswax over medium to low heat.  Stir the beeswax occasionally as it melts.

Step 4:  Once the beeswax is melted, add 2 drops of Spectrum Blue Candle Dye and stir.  Once incorporated, place your pouring pot back into the heat source for now.

Step 5:  Next, lay out your wax paper on a flat even surface.

Step 6:  Weigh out 4 grams of Democrat Fragrance Oil.  Remove your beeswax from the heat source and add the fragrance.  Stir.

Step 7:  Next, slowly pour the beeswax unto the wax paper.  Allow this to fully set up at room temperature.

Step 8:  Once cool to the touch, gently remove the beeswax from the wax paper.  Set the beeswax onto your cutting board.  Then, using your star cookie cutter, cut out 1 star.

Step 9:  Now, firmly press the star to the inside wall of your candle jar. 

Step 10:  Using your spoon, place some of the red pillar of bliss wax inside the candle jar.  Gently flatten the wax down to make an even layer.  Then, do the same with the white pillar of bliss wax.  Try to keep each colored layer about the same size. 

Step 11: Continue layering both the red and white wax until your candle jar is full.  Remember to straighten your wicks occasionally.

Step 12:  When finished filling, trim off the excess wick before burning.  Your democrat candle is now ready!
