I got some of that from Micheal's called CandleWiz, it's actually from Candlewic. I like it a lot. It is actually quite close to the real thing. I still have a cold though. lol.
-
I'm going to try the method on here. I can tell by the mottling I got it too hot. When I try to make a mottle I can't get it, now I see at the bottom that's what I got. Will try it again and not sooo hot this time. Thanks for all the help. You all have been great.

I think I'm pouring it too hot. I read somwhere to chill the mold first. I use the wax that I get at Michael's. It comes in 11 lb slabs. I'm not really sure what it is. It's called Premium candle wax and has a 148* melt point. It's the only wax I can get around here, ( no credit card). I used Paradise Breeze fo from Yaley, 1 ounce. I'm going to go back to the techniqies here and try again with those directions. I didn't put any stearic in it. Thnanks for the help. I'll just keep trying till I get it right. Thanks.

I've tried to make a layered rustic and can't get it right, no matter what. I give up on them. I tried to make this look like a sunrise ( Colors ) . Could someone please tell me how you do them? I'm at my wits end. I did this by putting it in the freezer first, then each layer.Help!!! Please!!!
-
Thanks for the info. I'll have to try those.

It's a real straw.

Thanks for the nice comments. The color is all a cream color all the way down. I think it is the glass that makes it look brown at the bottom. But it is all one color all the way down.

Love this scent! The only thing I didn't have for it is a little umbrella.
-
I saw a thread in here somewhere, with a pic of some holders for tilted candles. I can't find it anywhere. Would someone know where it is? They are metal holders.Thanks.

I sent you a pm with the info on scent.

I used CandleKitty's method, using dark purple as the primary and turquoise as the secondary. Hope this helps. Will pm you her method if you prefer.

I bought 2 new molds and some new scents ( For me) , and wanted to try them out. The marbled are tropical ? The name was worn off, but it smells wonderful. Will have to go back to Micheal's and get more and find out the name. The chunkie is scented Sugar cookie, not a good cold throw. The cream colored is scented Summer Sorbet, what a wonderful scent. Still have to test burn. Thanks for looking.

Made these this morning. Hope I did them right. I like them and so far everyone I showed them to liked them a lot. Thanks for looking.

That I finally got a rustic. I've been trying for weeks to get it right and I hope I did it this time. Please tell me if I'm correct! Thank you.

I tried something different tonight. I made a hurricane shell, melted color chips, then took an eye dropper and drizzled the color all over. I have it unlit here and in the reply it is lit. Thanks for looking.

Thought I'd post some layered pillars I did last week.

The directions for these are in the archives on the first page second one down. Hope this helps.

I was so happy with this , I decided to post it. I went through the old archives and found the swirl directions. Decided to give it a try. By the way... My wick is centered and the pic is cropped, lol. So here it is.
