This article will teach you how to make 100 scented incense sticks.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 100 Incense Sticks
  • 32oz Empty Spaghetti Jar
  • Cake Pan 9x13
  • Window Screen
  • 4oz Fragrance Oil
  • 10oz DPG(Incense Solvent Liquid)
  • Screen
  • Metal Spoon
  • Zip Lock Bag 2x12
  • White Label
  1. Step 1

    Mix 4oz of fragrance oil and 10oz of DPG in a cake pan. Stir with metal spoon for a few minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add 100 incense sticks to the mixture.

  3. Step 3

    Let incense sticks soak for 24 hours.

  4. Step 4

    After 24 hours, take incense sticks out of the mixture and place incense sticks on a window screen to dry. Keep incense sticks spaced out so they can dry. They will need 2 days (48 hours) to 7 days to dry. It all depends on how warm your room is. If your room is about 70 degrees then it should only take 2 days. The colder the room, the longer it will take them to dry.

  5. Step 5

    Once the incense sticks are dry, place them in a 2x12 zip lock baggie. You can get them at Bitter Creek Candle Supply.

  6. Step 6

    Clean up time. All your mixture can be stored in your spaghetti jar for future use. Keep a lid on the jar when not using. Wipe out cake pan with paper towel before washing.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure they are completely dry for them to burn right
  • Each day while the incense sticks are drying, move incense sticks around on screen and wipe off the mixture that is on the screen
