4. **Add Essential Oils:**
- Once the wax is fully melted, remove it from heat.
- Allow the wax to cool slightly, then add the desired amount of essential oils. Stir gently to distribute the scent evenly.

5. **Pour Wax into Tins:**
- Carefully pour the scented wax into the prepared tins, leaving a small space at the top.

6. **Set the Wick:**
- Keep the wick centered as the wax solidifies. You can use a wick holder or simply hold the wick in place until the wax cools and sets.

7. **Trim the Wick:**
- Once the wax has completely solidified, trim the wick to your desired length, leaving about half an inch above the wax.

8. **Decorate and Personalize:**
- Consider adding decorative elements like dried flowers or herbs on top of the candle before the wax completely solidifies. Or add a little hotties to decorate your candle. Use something sharp to make a small hole. Then put it through the wick.

- Your tin candle is now ready! Light it up and enjoy the soothing ambiance and fragrance of your custom soy wax candle.
