Crazy Candle Challenge: Vintage Tackle Box Candle

You’ve seen us candle-fy one-of-a-kind vintage tins and glass pieces, but do you think we can handle a huge vintage tackle box? When we saw this blue-green toned tackle box on a big antiquing trip, we knew just what it was missing - 127 oz of soy wax and 22 wicks! That’s exactly what it took to turn this vintage piece into a candle, plus a little more...


This was a MASSIVE project! From getting the tackle box unlocked without the key to removing the cork bedding and cleaning it out, we faced quite a few challenges. Don’t worry, nothing a couple of vintage candle-making pros couldn’t handle!  



Check out the entire process of creating our biggest vintage candle yet in our Crazy Candle Challenge: Vintage Tackle Box Candle video on the Cultivated Candle Co. YouTube channel. What should we candle-fy in our next Crazy Candle Challenge? Let us know on Facebook or Instagram!
