candlesprite7 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Yeah me but I suck at it yet....LOLThere quite a few others too...I can't remember who they are though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceCarvesWax Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 5 or 6 of us for sure and I bet a bunch of others that play around with carving but either they dont post much or not at all. My carving days are limited, but I think I have about 400# of hot wax ready right now if I wanted to get creative. I think I have creative block. Post some pictures and let us see what your made out of girl. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRC06301983 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I taught Bruce everything he knows. okay maybe not. He does make really great candles. I think someone asked Bruce if anyone ever burned one of the candles they bought from him and in a modest way he indicated that no they didn't burn them because they were too beautiful. Veronica do you carve candles? or are you interested in learning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Yep, Bruce is one of the best!! Beautiful work. I carve also, but am no where near where Bruce's talent is. One of these days, a million years from now, I may be half as good as Bruce. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I was full time carving way way back, next year will be my 30th year as a carver/chandler. Over 10 years full time, and the rest of the time I always had the wax melted but didnt make much since I had a "real" job at the time.
