Candles have a way of transforming a space—adding warmth, atmosphere, and a touch of elegance that makes every moment feel more intentional. At Amy Howard at Home, we’re excited to introduce the Autumn Glow Candle Kit, a limited-edition project designed to bring both beauty and craftsmanship into your home this season.
Whether you’re looking for the perfect fall DIY, a thoughtful handmade gift, or a cozy new ritual for your evenings, this kit has everything you need to create two luxurious candles with glowing metallic bases and the soft crackle of natural wooden wicks.
Why the Autumn Glow Candle Kit is Special
Amy shared that candles are a part of her nightly routine. Her “prayer tub” moments are always accompanied by the warm glow of a candle, making this kit not just about crafting—but about creating a ritual of peace and reflection in your own home.
Here’s what makes this kit unique:
-
Extra-large size: Each vessel is a generous 22oz, perfect for a long-lasting burn.
-
Wooden wicks: Add the cozy crackle and pop of a fire to your space.
-
Metallic leaf bases: Choose from shimmering copper, gold, or silver to customize your candle’s design.
-
Soy wax blend: Clean-burning, easy to work with, and refillable for endless use.
As Amy put it, these candles look and feel like boutique-quality pieces—something that could easily retail for $88 or more—but now you can create them yourself.
What’s Inside the Kit
Each Autumn Glow Candle Kit is carefully curated. Here’s everything you’ll find inside:
-
Two 22oz glass vessels
-
Pre-measured soy wax ready to melt and pour
-
A full resin kit (resin + hardener) for creating your glowing metallic base
-
Three metallic leaf packs: copper, silver, and gold
-
Wooden wicks with stands for a perfect burn
-
Mixing cups, stir sticks, and reusable silicone measuring containers
With all the essentials included, you’ll have everything you need to craft two stunning candles—and enough metallic leaf to experiment with future projects.
Endless Creative Possibilities
Amy also shared fun ways to take this kit even further:
-
Customize for the season: Use copper leaf for fall, or imagine holly and berries suspended in resin for Christmas.
-
Add fragrance: Pair your candle with Amy Howard at Home essential oils to infuse your space with your favorite scent.
-
Gift-ready: With their luxurious size and shimmering finish, these candles make heartfelt handmade gifts.
How It Comes Together
-
Prepare your vessel. Clean it thoroughly and get ready to pour.
-
Mix your resin. Combine part A and part B in equal parts, stirring slowly for about 3 minutes.
-
Add metallic leaf. Fold in gold, silver, or copper leaf for that radiant glow.
-
Pour and set. Allow the resin to cure for about 2.5 hours.
-
Add your wick. Place your wooden wick into its stand and secure it in the center.
-
Melt and pour your wax. Microwave the soy wax for about 5 minutes, then carefully pour it into your vessel.
-
Trim and enjoy. Cut the wick to about ½ inch above the glass and light your masterpiece.
Final Thoughts
The Autumn Glow Candle Kit is more than a DIY project—it’s a chance to craft beauty, warmth, and intention for your home. With every flicker and crackle, these candles create an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and personal.
