Scrape it off with a credit card, fingernail or whatever - and then rub the remainder off with a towel. If this doesn't work, use rubbing alcohol, goo gone, or similar.

You can carefully use a heat gun, dip in hot water, or, perhaps dip in hot wax that is the same color as the core candle (white or clear for the sample you're showing).

My experience with over dipping is that it helps to warm the core candle first, and then dip in wax that is at least 185 degrees.

Flicker - wondering how different you found the "new" EZ soy. I usually mix EZ with 4786 for my containers & will be needing to order more in a couple of months.

I've had good luck with Orange Spice from Cajun for candles, melts & rosehip potpourri.

What temperature is the wax you're dipping into? If it's too cold, that may be a problem. Also, your water bath should be room temperature (70's). Are the bubbles actually "water" that has been trapped by the next dip of wax? As far as the glaze not sticking in some spots, is someone perhaps handling the candle with lotion or other kind of oil on their hands? Forgot to say that your candle is beautiful - you are a master at carving.

Coating them thoroughly with Mod Podge will work. I usually give two coats.

Thanks - thought palm wax might be too hot for clamshells. the "tart bar" sounds like a great idea.

At what temperature do you pour the palm for the melts (assuming you're using the clamshells.) My melts, which are paraffin, have been outselling the jar candles for the past 5 years or more. (I usually say a "thank you" to Sce..sy at the end of every craft fair.)

Looks fantastic!

Nice job on the candle. Love the color for fall. It isn't the temperature you poured the initial candle at that determines how hot your re-pour should be; the re-pour only needs to be 10-15 degrees above the melting point of the wax for good adhesion. Some dyes/fragrances will cause a color change if the re-pour is reheated at too high a temperature.

I also use about 1/2 t per pound. I live the one from BCN.

re the $49 one there is a list of supported devices available on Squares website; some, other than Apple, are supported. I emailed Square, giving specifics on my phone, and received an answer within a reasonable time. I had pre-ordered the $49 one, and they canceled the order without any charges, etc.

Just a FYI - the new chip reader being offered by Square does not work on all phones - they are not yet supporting my Android Bionic.
