Can any of you fine folks find information on making candles out of red cedar berries? These are a type of juniper berry. I've heard that the waxy skin can be used in candle making , but can not find anything on doing this. I have candle molds and usually use bee's wax to make the old fashioned long point candles, and I think these would be a nice added touch.
