It was 1999 and I was shopping for gifts with my husband... when something caught my eye that stopped me dead in my tracks. As I raced towards the booth, I was immediately dazzled by the sight before me... it was a miniature aquarium of sand, seashells, glass fish and blue water… only, Hey... wait a minute ... this isn’t water! What is this stuff?

I was hooked... I had to know more about Gel Candles. I searched the Web, performed trial and error... and spent / wasted a lot of money and supplies and time. There was no book or special reports... it was pure research. And in my frustration I thought... why not write a book? And the rest as they say was history. The book "How to Make & Market Gel Candles that Sell Like Wildfire!" helped spawn an industry.

I have received many testimonials over the years (thank you) from my Readers who have enthusiastically shared their success stories... whether in enjoying a new hobby, setting up a storefront, selling at Fairs or in the home, and more. I am so thankful that the book has helped so many people... the world over.

And over time, when other books have appeared on the market I have thought to remove my book and sort-of take a breather from it all.

But we have kept the site alive because of the replies I have received such as this one...

""I endorse only one book.. It's the Gel Candles how-to book penned by Lynn Thomas ... the only sensible, safety conscious gelling book. IMHO it's the only book written with safety in mind. I've browsed some of the gel books at B&N and some of the stuff contained in them just flat out frightens me!
~Amy P. of RusticEscentuals.com" (more Testimonials)

So the book has received updates and revisions over time. Oh... and it continues to be a best-seller at Booklocker.com. Thanks again to our Readers.

If you are a newbie... Welcome to the World of Gel. You are in for quite an adventure. We have now made the book available to be read for free online.
