My wonderful hubby built me a craft/candle making room in the garage with radiant floor heating (the entire garage has this, we use the rooms as recreation rooms actually with my teenage sons have a room of their own out there for a place to hang out work on things and play darts and music. Anyhow, it stays around 55-60 degrees when it is very cold out in Northern Ohio. I turn on an electric heater if I get cold out there while working but not when I'm not in the room. I use a presto pot and a hot plate and it works out well. I cool the candles in a box to slow the process. I don't see any difference then when I used to work in the kitchen.
