- You will first need to decide on what the type of the incense is that you desire. There are two types of incense that can be created. Both are common, but maybe just a little more common would be the combustible type of incense. With this kind, the actual incense mixture is binding to the incense sticks or cones in order to be burned. The incense is lit with a flame, the flame is put out, yet the incense continues to slowly burning giving off the wondrous odors. The other type of incense that you can create is simply the ingredients alone. Often the loose incense ingredients are made into pellets of sorts. You will heat this type of incense through charcoal or other things. It is easier than combustible, but it does take more things required to burn it.
- After you have decided which type of incense that you will make, then you are almost done aside from actually making it all. You will also need to figure out what you will burn the incense in or with. Combustible incense is a bit easier, as many, many places sell incense burners. If you really are the creative type, then you can even make your own incense burners too. With non-combustible incense, then you will need a bowl or saucer of some sort with ash or other materials like that in order to burn it.
If you have made you own incense, then do not be afraid to share it. People who enjoy burning incense always love to share new and different types and smells. It is wonderful!
