  1. Well my first batch of soap is a mess. The lye is Potassim Hydroxide instead of Sodium Hydroxide. Oils would not stay mixed. Is this the problem?

    Making candles is so much easier for me.

    If you are suppose to use sodium hydroxide why would they sell the other kind with soap ingredients? Setting here scratching my head.

  2. I did a fairly large show this past weekend. The weather turned cold at night. It got down to 36 degrees before morning. You could see your breath by 10:00 when the show ended at night. Well, in the morning when I opened my tent, my jars were all wet. My 16oz apothecary jars were fine but the 12 oz masons are going to have to be all relabeled. For the life of me, can't figure out why just one size jar would do this.

  3. I am testing this now in my bathroom. No hot throw at all. Great cold throw but I can't smell a thing when burning. I am very shocked ,as this is the only oil from them that has done this. I use 4627 and 51Z wicks in a 12 oz mason. Going to have to try another wick. Any suggestions?

  4. For anyone that sells the 1 oz bottles for refresher oils, how do you display these. I know if I sit them on the table they will be knocked over. I m going to leave one of each scent unsealed so they may sniff. My set up is mostly primitive and I just can't seem to think of anything. I don't want them in a basket to get all mixed up. I was thinking of a piece of wood with holes cut so that bottle can set in.
