Hi Jo, thanks for your reply. I found pillar techniques that I had printed in 2004 when I started candlemaking, from CraftServer & other sites. I had to laugh because one of the tutorials was your exact directions! At the time I printed them I didn't understand any of it, like it was written in a foreign language. I found another technique very similar using white chunks to fill the mold. Then melt 2 different color dye blocks (pieces) separately. Pour the filling wax over the chunks and spoon drops of the melted dye (one at a time). Let the colors swirl from the convection, and let the candle cool until it’s time for the second pour. It comes out looking tied dyed or marbled, and some of the chunks make white circles. The sample pic was done in a tall pyramid, and looks a lot like a lava lamp. Different, just thought I’d share since you were so nice to reveal your magic! :highfive: Have fun, ~ pat ~
