Who doesn't love a good candle? You use candles to scent your home or office, to unwind or even to take away smells of food and cigar or cigarette smoke. But have you thought of trying your hand at making your own candles? It's super easy and fun for the whole family.

Pine Tar is the goo from the sap of the Pine Tree among other ingredients, that is used to treat animal illnesses from cuts, bruises and upset stomachs and more ( mainly horses ).
