    The home-made candle industry is currently in meltdown, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

    No, it's not. It's an awesome, fun hobby, but you have to do a LOT of marketing to make a profit. Glassware and fragrance oils are the two most expensive components of candle making. I make my own candles and melts, but I only make them for my family.

    To be honest, not really. there are already too many big name candle companies like Yankee controlling the market.
