Jane and Tel,
You melt only a small amount of the beeswax. As soon as melted, remove from
heat. Add the coconut oil stir until it melts. Let it cool a bit, when it
gets cloudy, add lavander oil and immediately pour into container where a few
drops of lavander oil has been previously put. [To test if you have the right
consistency, put a drop of the coconut oil-beeswax mix on the tip of a spoon,
if it gets cloudy quickly, and hard enough, then it is ready for the lavander
oil to be added.] Cover immediately. I divide and put them into several
small containers then put them in freezer and it can last for a long time. You
can leave out one container for use. It does not have to be refrigerated.
