I was just in Kmart and they now have everything for candle making. Even pretty glass jars to fill. I wish I had more spare time to be creative, they have made it cheap and easy.

Try places where they sell candles in general eg Dusk, Myer, Spiritual/Healing stores etc. If not I am sure they will guide you to the right direction . Making candles is a nice challenge , just like making soaps I guess .

I am going to try the silicone moulds.

Thanks for asking this question; following the answers.

I use whatever I have at hand, jar, glasses etc..

Artison’s retreat have candle making packs that they can post to you which include everything you need like wax and containers and wicks

Internet or craft store, but you can use empty milk cartons, orange juice bottes etc and other things.

EBay

I use silicon shaped cake moulds and set them in there, Glass jars that a designed to sit tea light candles in, Xmas decoration baubles like you get at spotlight (Have 2 halves that separate), tea cups you no longer use basically be creative.

Old money boxes were good too

As kids we made them
Into poppers and milk cartons

I also use pretty small jars, sometimes with wire or twine wrapped around the top. These look very cute and beachy, which is a favourite style of mine.

Yes as Anne Clements said, you can use silicone cooking trays, there are a huge variety of shapes and sizes. Thats what I use.

depends on what type you want to make . http://www.candlesupply.com.au is a place to start with. I know you can use silicon shaped cooking trays -heart shaped ,cupcake etc. You can also pour straight into various sized glass holders.
