Made Candles All Day

[Michael Bush]

At the foundations and often otherwise, the bees mix propolis in with the wax.  This makes the wax brown.  For most of my uses, I like that just fine since I dip my boxes in beeswax and rosin.  But I think the yellow looks very nice.  If you want it lighter, make thin sheets and leave them in the sun (in a container of course because the sun will melt them).  The sun bleaches them pretty quickly.
