Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • A heat-safe glass jar or bowl
  • Water
  • 3-4 cinnamon sticks
  • 2-3 star anise pods
  • 3-4 dried orange slices
  • ½ inch of carrier oil
  • 1 floating candle wick
  • 8 drops cinnamon leaf essential oil
  • 6 drops sweet orange essential oil
  • 5 drops clove bud essential oil
  • 4 drops cedarwood essential oil

Instructions

  • Add the cinnamon sticks, star anise, and dried orange slices to the glass jar.
  • Fill almost full with water.
  • Add the essential oils to the oil.
  • Slowly pour your oil on top, aiming for about ½ inch layer floating on the surface. Pour gently so it doesn't mix into the water below.
  • Float your wick on top and let it settle into the oil layer before lighting.

Notes

  • Never leave it burning unattended, and keep it somewhere stable where it won't get bumped.
  • This should burn for a few hours.
