Using the knife for plastic and the scissors for paper cut off the tops of the molds. Don't worry about making an even cut, jut be sure you cut the mold so that it is taller than the candle you want to make. Do not cut metal containers yet.
3). Follow the instructions from how to make Homemade candles with your home made mold.
4). When the candle has dried you can attempt to turn the mold upside down and shake the candle or out or you can cut and then rip the mold away from around the candle.
5). If you used metal containers they probably have a lip that will prevent the candle from shaking out. You will have to cut the container away with the tin snips or wire cutter. Be careful the cut metal will be very sharp!
