A snowman candle 112 mm tall: three stacked snowballs, a top hat with a brim, a scarf round the neck with its tail hanging down the front, coal eyes, three buttons and a carrot nose pointing straight out.

The mold is exactly what our two-part candle mold generator builds for it: two rigid halves with rubber-band grooves, pry pockets and a pour funnel on top. The seam runs down the sides, so the nose, eyes, buttons and scarf tail are all in the front half, and the tool's own seam check finds nothing stuck. No silicone needed.

A Christmas market favourite: pour it in white and paint the hat black, the scarf red and the nose orange, or leave it plain. The zip carries both halves, the snowman master as its own STL, the tool's own print-settings sheet and a recipe file for the generator.

What you need

3
  • About 113 g of pillar wax: the cavity holds 125 ml
  • A tabbed, primed wick for a 45 mm candle, about 140 mm long
  • Rubber bands or clamps, and a clip or wick bar across the funnel

How to cast it

5

  1. Print both halves as exported. Clamp-strength settings: 4 walls, 40% gyroid infill, no supports.

  2. Drop a tabbed wick into one half so the tab sits on the cavity floor, close the halves and band them along the whole seam.

  3. Clip the wick centred across the pour funnel and pour at 65 to 75 C.

  4. Once the first pour is firm but still warm, top up the funnel. Wax shrinks, and the second pour fills the dip.

  5. Cool fully, open the halves at the pry pockets and trim the wick just above the hat. Paint the hat, scarf and nose if you like.

Questions about this design

How do I paint the snowman candle?

Pour it in white. Once it is cool, paint the hat and the eyes with black candle paint, the scarf red and the nose orange. Candle paint or acrylic mixed with candle medium stays on without cracking.

Where does the wick come out of the snowman?

Out of the top of the hat, where the pour funnel sits. Drop a tabbed wick in before you close the halves so the tab sits in the middle of the bottom snowball.

Is the carrot nose strong enough?

Yes, it is 7 mm thick where it meets the face and 13 mm long. Open the halves slowly so the nose slides straight out of its pocket.
