I was on the candlewic website yesterday and came across these wax granules and it said they can be used for sand candles. Is this what you are talking about? Granulated Candle Wax Art Crystals Granulated wax, also referred to as magic wax crystals or scented sands, can be used in a myriad of applications. You can make an instant candle by just pouring the crystals into a glass container and placing the wick in. The beads can be layered to create very unique looks. Much like sand art, wax art crystals are a great source for individuals to make their own candles at fairs, carnivals, and craft shows.
