that is the beauty of candlemaking. dont give up. we have all been there. good luck:smiley2:

bittercreek south has a wonderful Harvest type. super stong throw.

now that u have the 1oz. of fragrance per pound of wax rule.... it's really testing in your wax. for paraffin, I would start testing 1oz. of fragrance/per pound of wax...if u cant get a room full of aroma, mark that oil off ur list.....if u use pure soy wax, more than 1oz. of fragrance may be required for kick butt hot throw. for pure soy/natural wax-try 1.5 oz. of oil, per pound of wax. (most) natural waxes requires more fragrance oil . There r many wonderful suppliers who carry fab., kick butt scents. take ur time n test n ur wax. give ur candles away 2 friends...let them test.. get feedback. good luck!
-
way 2 go. the gift sets look fantastic!
-
Aztec carries this scent. I got a sample with my last order. made some votives using 1oz/# of paraffin...performed great.
-
Natures Garden is a fantastic company. top quality fragrance oils & products, wonderful customer service.
-
i have only tested mr. missy oils in paraffin. every oil i have tested has been awesome. the oils are top quality. you cant beat their prices. just google mr missys candles...u should be able to pull up their website....take care.:smiley2:
-
they have a dupe of this at Aztec... smells lik the VS scent.
-
Are Lush soaps CP soap or M&P? Just wondering cause they have such bright colors and strong scents.
melt n pour...why is lush soap so expensive?
-
the patchouli/cedarwood from mr missys smells like a scent u might like. tested this oil in paraffin. throw is super.
-
ICS has a great Pink Sugar. Aztec does as well. they smell and perform the same.
-
I have ordered three times . the first order took a few days longer than normal (the company had to re stock bottles). my last 2 orders shipped the day after I ordered. no problems at all.
so far I have tested the following oils in igi votive wax 1.2 oz per/#
cedar/patchouli- very strong throw. smells like a campfire to me. a smokey masculine scent. more smokey cedar than patchouli.
grapefruit/hyacinth- strong throw. very clean smell, spa like scent. top note is the floral w/ undertones of tangy grapefruit.
hydrangea- strong throw. another clean smelling fragrance.
black current/tangerine- another strong throwing oil. top note is citrus.
Ima gonna pour more of his oils this weekend. I bought a bunch.
peace.

Nobody is forcing anybody to order. If you don't want to order, don't.
I've ordered 3 times with no hitches whatsoever.
exactly. if u dont think the shipping is correct, contact the supplier. nobody on this board can fix ur problem. I had to call about my second order. dan fixed the problem and everything was good. Im gonna post some reviews shortly. peace.

Flicker is spot on.... we have FO at the $8 per # price point that out performs oils at higher priced oils. the key is 2 get samples n test. see whats works n ur wax or lotion or soap. sounds kinda strange, but its true. higher priced oils doesn't always mean better scent throw/performance. rock on.
-
wow. the soap looks good. awesome job.
-
hi ya...... sample aztec or KY...great dupes.....work well in a para soy blend.
-
lonestar, ift, peaks, or taylored concepts... they all perform very well in my para soy blend.
will get a sample of natures garden on my next order. thanks silver.
ps. the leather scent is my fav.- next is blackberry sage.
not 2 mention my top sellers!
take care.
-
zinc wicks & soy wax = bad performance.
Brenda- try using cd or cotton wicks.
I tested the htp wicks w/ soy. didnt work. least in my tests. wicks became too brittle.
rock on sista.
-
they look wonderful. very festive. just awesome.
u rock.
-
your candles look fantastic. way 2 go.
-
there are ALOT! of scams with money orders.
i am surprised any company, esp. nowadays, will accept a money order as a payment option. most companies will not accept a regular bank check... most require e-checks.
blame this on the bad people out there.
sorry you had a bad experience.
take care.
-
that is amazing looking soap. :highfive:
u rock.
-
looks good Adam.
how many accounts/stores are selling your products?
take care.
-
Adam your are one determined young man go for your dreams and think things through. I think you will do just fine. My son is 19 and you remind me of him hard working and wanting to make something of yourself at a young age. Hard work pays off
Best of Luck
