  1. Candle-Making

    Material from:
    Mr Richard Power,
    Faithlegg,
    Co Waterford.
    Age - 29 years.
    About a hundred years ago candle-making was very common in some places and expecially in Cheekpoint and round Faithlegg. But now the craft has died out except amongst a few people.
    First a concrete block procured and five or six holes put into it, each about an inch or two in diameter and [I] about six inches in depth.
    Then fat of sheep is got and melted into these holes and plaited thread or hemp is put into the candles. Then they are left to get hard and are knocked out of the block. They are then ready for use.
    These candles when properly made are every bit as good as the candles we now buy.
