Hobby lobby is a good place to go for candle supplies but they can be expensive. candlewacks.com click on candle kits. you can also try wholesalesuppliesplus.com
See http://www.iwanttosellstuff.com for a list of good wholesale suppliers.
You can buy used candles for a good price at thrift stores, then melt them down to use the wax for your own candles.
Last week we tried dipping candles. It was fun and easy enough for the kids to do. All you do is dip a length of candlewick into a tall can of melted, colored wax and quickly pull it out of the can. Then you wait--that's the hard part. After a minute or two, when the wax looks dry you quickly dip it into the wax and immediately pull it out again. You repeat that until the candle is as fat as you want, changing colors to make stripes, if you want. That's all there is to it.
