  1. Still, the newbie I am, what is USA? Thanks! I choose not to place "DIS", in my ability. ― Robert M. Hensel
  2. Thank you to all of you! I'm going to try both! Right now! I really appreciate the advice and the shared knowledge! You are all AWESOME! Thank you!!!!
  3. Both I tried to load a pic from my cell but it didn't work either. Everything's broken
  4. Is there anyway to fix broken candles other than re melting and starting over? I'm afraid the chunks will combine into a fugly brown/gray/sick color.
  5. Congratulations! Sounds like so much fun! I like your white, clean lines. Wishing you happiness and success! They say you never work a day if you love what you do!

  6. I didn't see that arrow!! LOL! Thanks!!
  7. I've seen some amazing Art here and I'm sure your Fugulies are gorgeous! I would love to see a pic too! My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. Maya Angelou
  8. Those are REALLY cute! I would imagine you could paint your own with some sharpies and a stencil. If your not inclined to do that, I could make a couple for you, if you'll pay for shipping, I'm game. You'd have to also specify the wording you want as well. OT sorry but are these jars really $3.99 for a dozen??? http://www.fillmorecontainer.com/4-oz-Canning-Jars-Regular-Mouth-P99.aspx My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.~Maya Angelou
  9. I also had this problem with a soy pillar last night. I tried the fridge, no go, I did the hot water thing, nope, I even broke out the heat gun to no avail. Candybee's method is all that worked and I was pleasantly surprised that the candle finish wasn't marred or disfigured either. I hope you got it out!

  10. Trappeur Well, I placed 2 orders at different times this past month and a half......For all the years I have been ordering from CS I could ALWAYS count on it to be delivered 2 days from day I placed the order. This last order took 10 days b/4 I got it and and the order previously took 7 days......I don't understand. amanda DING DING DING! You summed it up much more eloquently than I was able to but that what I've been saying. And the response from CS that "noooo, guys! This is a GOOD thing! Now you have the CHOICE to order it from the other warehouse instead of it being listed as Out Of Stock" is so annoying and condescending. As far as oils, I've been having AWESOME luck with Aztec's oils lately. Just as good as CS's and similar prices. And they'll stuff a couple pounds of oil in a USPS envelope for $6. Oceangazer1 And why are they quoting me cheaper shipping from NV. I think they need to get some phone calls and we need answers. I hope I'm doing this right and you all can see my reply. I'm HOT now! I've read EVERYONE's post in this thread and you all have valid points and raise valid questions! Email or call customer service, and often. Sometimes you have to be a dog with a bone to get a better place on the porch! LOL @Oceangazer1 Your shipping was cheaper than I paid and I live in the same state as CS!!! I also noticed that shipping UPS overnight was the same price as ground and I knew that was HOKEY as Hello so I didn't check the faster shipping because I just knew if I did, they would contact me saying a mistake was made blah blah, gimme more of your $$!!!! @amanda Thanks for the tip! I'll be checking them out! @Trappeur They were too busy moving and/or opening new stores at the time. They moved from a small town in NC the bigger area of Raleigh-Durham. This extra shipping is paying their new expensive rent or possibly new location in NV or hello maybe both! To everyone involved, it's a sad day to lose a good supplier due to S/H costs, but sometimes you have to put your foot down or yell the line from that old movie "I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!" I'm afraid to venture out but I trust you guys and will check out these other folks mentioned. Oh and btw, Walmart has those 4 oz jars, a case for $11.88 here. Look back behind the kitchen machinery like can openers, toasters, etc. If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Maya Angelou
  11. @OldGlory RollTide, according to my math, 12% is 2 oz per lb. LOL I LOVE that smiley face! And thanks so much! I'm mathmatically challenged! One night I think I spent and hour trying to figure out how much my large pour pot weighted with 16 ounces of wax! I read something about taring out a scale here and my life changed forever! Just where is that adorable smiley? lol My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.~ Maya Angelou
  12. @8-Gran-Ones Have you tried the micas from nurtures? They are wonderful. .she test them all before ever putting them in her site to sell. I have not had any bleed that are listed as non.. also tkb has some great non bleeding micas.. I did not at the time. It was my first experience with soap with a "Life of the Party" melt and pour soap kit. I also picked up a red soap color at ACMoore to make the pink dots with in a clear purple tinted M&P. The kit came with a green and gold mica and they were GORGEOUS! I have a stash I just got last week of 3 different shades of blue and a green. I'm REALLY excited to try them! I just went to TKB's site! OMGoodness!!!!!!! Thank You! I love this forum! I lurked for a year! I'm so glad I joined! Thanks again @8-Gran-Ones!!!

  13. Oh, that's me on the site. NOT! LOL! On Ecosoya's site they say "Many fragrances work in PB, especially those designed for soy wax in general. Recommended maximum scent load is about 12%". Is this two ounces per pound or has my lack of math skills reared it's ugly head? LOL Thanks!
