Informative Speech Outline Sample
Candle making
Title: Candle making
Specific purpose: To inform my audience on how to make candles.
I. Introduction
A. Attention Material: What comes to mind when you see candles? We
associate candles with celebrations (like Christmas or birthdays) or
special occasions. Candles date back to the Ancient Egyptians who are
credited with making the first candles. They used torches made by
soaking the spongy core of reeds in melted tallow (National Candle
Association: History of Candle making, p. 1).
B. Tie to the audience: Im sure that all of us at some point have used
candles for celebrations, romantic experiences, or for just plain
decoration. The great part about making your own candles is that they
are inexpensive to make and you shape the wax into something special.
What could be more special than to make someone you love a
homemade gift?
C. Credibility material: Two years ago, I made candles for decoration and
also for people to purchase during a medieval Madrigal dinner production
that our A Cappella choir put on. I have also made candles since then as
a part of my church youth group around the Christmas season.
D. Preview: I will explain three basic things which include how to go about
finding the right materials, how to melt the wax, and how to make a
molded ice-cube candle.
[Transition: Lets start by doing the most important thing, which is
to find all of the materials, and tools needed to make candles.]
II. Body
A. The first step is to gather the equipment you will need (The Basics and
Cool Candle making Ideas, p. 1).
1. You will need wax; you can either use old, worn out candles which are
obviously free or you can purchase paraffin wax from a craft store.
2. You will need wicks; you can make wicks from heavy, braided cotton
string or can purchase wicks from a craft store. I read in Ray Shaws
book entitled Candle Art that heavy braided cotton string works just as
good (Shaw 25-26). Ive never tried the cotton string but its worth a try.
3. You need to set up a double boiler.
a. You can use an actual double boiler
b. You can make your own using a pan and a jar or coffee can.
4. You will need a mold if you are planning on making a molded candle.
This can be anything; a milk carton, Dixie cups, tin can, paper towel tube,
etc.
5. There are two optional ingredients.
a. You can use crayons of the desired color to color the wax or buy wax
dye.
b. You can purchase scented oil to make your candles smell wonderful.
[Transition: Once you have all the material that you need, you can
move on to melting the wax.]
B. Your second step is to melt the wax (Pioneer Clubs: Trailblazer
Handbook, p. 165).
1. Start by placing wax in the double boiler or in a coffee can put in a pan
of water.
2. Heat until the water boils.
3. Make sure to turn down the heat, and let the wax melt. Dont let it boil.
4. Add wax dye, crayons, or scent (if desired) and stir.
[Transition: Now that the wax is melted, you can let your creativity run
wild and have fun making candles. You can make just about anything but
Im going to show you how to make a molded ice-cube candle. ]
C. This is how you go about making a molded ice-cube candle (Pioneer
Clubs: Trailblazer Handbook, p.166).
1. Cut off the top of a milk carton.
2. Place a candle the height of the carton in the center of the carton. This
makes an excellent wick.
3. Break ice-cubes into chunks
a. Finely crushed ice creates small holes. Large cubes create large
openings.
c. Quickly pour hot wax into the carton while someone holds the candle
straight.
d. Pour off the excess water when the wax is completely hardened.
[Transition to conclusion: Now that you know how to make an ice-
cube candle, lets go over what I showed you today.]
III. Conclusion
A. Final Review: So today I showed you how to do three basic things.
1. I showed you how to find the right materials.
2. I showed you how to correctly melt the wax.
3. I showed you how to make an ice-cube candle. The tricky part is
keeping the wick in the center of the mold.
B. Tie back to the audience: Today we use candles for almost any kind of
occasion or celebration. Candles continue to grow in popularity and we
see them just about everywhere. They are really inexpensive to make
and a lot of fun!
C. Concluding remarks: So when you try making candles on your own,
use your imagination and be very creative. Your candle can be anything
you like. Have a great time experimenting and having fun making your
own candles to enjoy.
