I am a 15 year old homeschooled girl. We started making realistic candles for a small homeschooling entrepreneur fair a couple years ago. It was such a success we decided to use the candles in different aspects of my education such as in my chemistry class we create our own scents by mixing essential oils. It's also my art class, business, and when we do shows it helps me in my public speaking but the part that I believe that's going to help me the most is the knowledge I'm gaining in real world experience, and how to start my own business when I'm older.
