Great point!

I will get a pound of white too.

Do some vendors carry the pellets that are tiny tiny? I *thought* I saw some at one point, but lost track.

I am a scent ho through and through! LOL

but I do love the smell of natural beeswax for sure.

Can you color the wax?

Thank you!!!!

I did do it in the microwave (impatient) but it is a low wattage one. Took almost 9 minutes for 1/2 lb of wax. They seemed to pop out of the Milky way molds okay.

How do you find your throw on these?

Hi all,

My therapist told me to get a hobby, so I did. LOL

I want to make beeswax ornament thingies with scents. Basically to scent my closets and drawers.

I have natural beeswax pellets, goodness knows I have a TON of FO, I have a couple milky way molds (small cavity).

How do I do I make something like this.???

I used to do MP when I first got into bb stuff. Can I melt the wax in the microwave? How much scent do I add?

That kind of stuff.

Since you are the wax guru's of the world, my therapist told me to start here.

Thank you for assisting in my mental recovery process.

Great job Robin!!!

Congrats.

I love your displays, everything is so professional and yet welcoming and classy. Keep up the great work!

This IS excellent information.

Thank you. I am learning some new things!

peppermint striped candles are my favorites! They are great!!

I used to have the coolest foil type peppermint striped wrapping paper. I wish I could find it again.

Oh definately, I have burned these candles and removed the labels.

I am looking for labels that are already to peel and stick like these that will actually stay on the candles and not slip off because of the oils and not stain from color.

These are the same labels on the candle above, so know the material must exist somewhere. LOL

help me find it.

All great points!

I am doing something like this:

But a small square with our logo and the type of candle

and then a larger rectangular on the back about the candle. warning label on the bottom. Yep, we just offer 2x3 pillars (we don't make them, we have another company do them)

ohh thank you!

Do you use sticky labels and glue? Like a glue stick glue or something else?

Anybody???

Please

Hey there,

I don't know a lot about the logistics of putting a label directly onto a candle. I know some stick and others don't because of the oils.

Is there a glossy/nice label white that is reccomended that actually sticks all the time???

Thanks!!!

Those are really nice! smooth, no bumps! I am sure they are a hit! Great job.

those are cute!

Would be fun for valentine's day.

every time I see the words Sal Butter

I think Sal bug (not even sure it is spelled the same way)

LOL I loved those as a kid! Now I am seeing a lot of syrums and new fad eye creams around. Which is cool, rather get it from an indie business ya know?

brambleberry has some wonderful ones

I am wondering why you didn't send it to IFT yourself???

They don't have a 50lb minimum... Just curious. Going to straight to the FO's mouth so to speak is a great idea in the future.

I use risers from walmart. Check the kitchen section.

they stack on top of one another. BUT it really depends on what you are selling. I put round candles/votives/perfumes etc on them.
