They really do have some good oils! Some in this list I've never tried but most I have. I would say they have more hits than misses.

Have you tried theirs?

Been looking for one myself. I know several suppliers have one but it's just knowing which one is the best! I wonder how mixing Hansel and Gretel's house (that reminds me of graham crackers), chocolate and a toasted marshmallow would smell? I just suck at blending though!

Yes! A lot of freshener makers bake theirs in a toaster oven. I use my kitchen oven but in all the groups I'm in on Facebook I see people talking about using toaster ovens all the time. If i'm not mistaken they bake a little hotter so you need to watch them till you get your temp and time down.

I defiantly will!

Nothing! Gail and I have both been watching our emails like hawks waiting on it but nothing. I'm hoping they will have one soon though! Their last email in May said they were testing a lot of new FO's to have for their fourth of July sale but I'm guessing they didn't get around to doing that or something.

Banana Nut Bread is my all time favorite and i LOVE Banana Walnut Cake from RE because I can actually smell the nuts and it doesn't smell like banana taffy to me. I've used it for my banana nut bread fragrance before. I also love their toasted marshmallow. I don't get any toasted notes in it but that's ok. It's so yummy I can look past that. Maybe I should add a little bit of marshmallow fireside or firewood scent to it to get a toasted note? Hmm, more blending to do LOL!

I just got an order in today from Midwest and their Blazing Bonfire is AMAZING!!! If you haven't tried it you need to.

If you're wanting to give a new company a try then order from Midwest Fragrance Company. They have the BEST customer service and great oils. I got Blazing Bonfire in from them today and it smells so good and unique! I'm not sure if it's a blend of theirs but I've not smelled it before. So far most of what I've tried from them is great and the owners are so sweet! Our member DaiseyMae66 is her mom.

They have the best clove I've tried. That would be a great mixer for Fall/Christmas. Here are some I have or have had and thought they smelled good. 7-up Cake Candied Apple Blueberry Muffin Cherry Crumb Pie Cinnamon Buns Country BUmpkin Cranberry Cobbler Gourmet Dark Chocolate Homemade Cheesecake Hot Orange Danish Kickin Cocoa Mrs. Claus Cookies-my favorite! Pilgrim's Pie-a great Primitive type scent Pumpkin Apple Butter-smells the same as the one from Flaming but so good! Raspberry zinger Sea Salt Caramels Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Sugar Cookie Brulee Wildberry Scone Rum Ripened Raisins-I haven't put this in wax but Trappeur used it and loved it. Apple Dumplin Balsam and Cedar Bayberry Chocolate Orchid Christmas Wassal Cracklin Birch Dragon's Blood Gingerbread Gingered Peach Hillbilly Homebrew Kringleberry Peppermint Fulff Potpourri Spice Snickerdoodle Latte Cream Soda Country Christmas Santa's Whiskers-smells the same as the one from RE to my nose Best Friends Children's Room Denim Monkey Farts I haven't put all of these in wax but a good deal of them and they were good! I'm sure I repeated some from my earlier post.

Iihaven't smelled the reformulated version of Hansel and Gretel'siHouse from CS. I think Indiana has it but I don't know if it's been reformulated. It does smell good though. I have yet to find a candy corn scent that really smells like candy corn to my nose. Maybe I need to take a candy corn FO and add some sweetness to it to make my own version. I'm also looking for a good orange spice! I absolutely LOVE All Hallows Eve from BCN! It's very orange smelling with some sweetness. It's strong too! I forgot to list that onei

I LOVE Circus Concession! And you're right about the one from Indigo being the same. Fragrance Buddy was supposed to have a sale for the 4th but I haven't received an email from them yet about the sale. I love most all of their pumpkin fragrances.

I want to try this one! I have Pecans and Pralines from Peak. Blending it with sugar cookie sounds so good. I might try blending it with a pumpkin scent too and see what happens.

You're welcome!

Oh yes! How could I forget about some of those! I don't think I cared for snicker doodle from CS much so I might send that one to you. I have it from CW too and although it's good and strong it reminds me of brewed tea for some reason. I had even thought about mixing sugar cookie and cinnamon together for a snicker doodle scent but just haven't yet, or maybe sugar cookie dough and cinnamon. I love snicker doodle from JS but it smells like maple cream to me. Is that what a snicker doodle cookie is supposed to smell like? I always thought they had a cinnamon note but not sure. This one smells like maple so I call it maple cream cookies but I love it.

Those sound amazing even the lavender and pumpkin one, which I would've never thought about blending together! I defiantly want to try apple spice with cinnamon sugared donut and Mac apple with cinnamon buns!

I make aroma bead fresheners and I use liquid dye and have never had that happen. Are you using liquid candle dye? I use that or mica. If you're using candle dye where did you purchase it? I get mine from Lone Star, Rustic Escentuals, or Flaming. You can't use soap dye or food coloring though.

I am not a floral or clean scent person so I'm ready for some spicy, pumpkin, bakery scents! What are your favorite old and even new Fall scents? One that I've bought but haven't put in wax is Midwest Fragrance Co. cinnamon buns! I can smell the dough and cinnamon and it's one of the most realistic ones I've smelled so far. I'm excited to put this one in wax and hope to do so soon. Another one- Ginger Vanilla-type from Maple Street. Haven't put it in wax yet either but it smells really good OOB. I'm not quite sure if it's a Fall scent but it's good. Caramel Sticky Buns from Midwest Fragrance Co is another one that smells delicious OOB and I'm excited to try. Some old stand by's that I can't get enough of are- Harvest Pumpkin-Cierra, Pumpkin Pecan Waffles-FB or Flaming but I hear Midwest has a great one too, Apple Cinnamon-Flaming, Lone Star or Fragrance Buddy, Pumpkin Pie-Bitter Creek North, Pumpkin Peanut Brittle-FB or Community. The one from Community doesn't have a smoky note to it that the one from Fb does and it might actually smell more like the original but I've never smelled that one. Either one is delicious to my nose though! Pumpkin Pie Spice-RE Cinnamon Broom-FB Cinnamon Sugared donuts-FB Banana Nut Bread-Cajun or CS but plan to try the one from Midwest too As far as blends go I'm just not that good at it but I'm going to try some new ones. Maybe spicy gingerbread with something, Hill Billy Homebrew with pumpkin spice, I suck at blending! LOL! Pumpkin Sugared Donuts-FB Sugared Cronut-Lone Star-Haven't put this in wax yet but it smells good OOB.

Melts 4625, 6006, ProBlend 650 Fragrance Load-10% Cure Time-about a week Cold Throw-strong Hot throw-strong This is one of my favorite pumpkin fragrances! Cierra has some great oils

Melts Wax used: 4625, 6006, Fragrance Load-10% Average cure time-one week Cold Throw-Excellent Hot Throw-Excellent This oil reminds me of a bakery scent, maybe like a lemon cookie or orange cookie. It's great though!

I just got some of their oils in after I had made up my mind I wasn't going to order from them and I really liked most of what I got. I hate to add another supplier to my list but I just may have to. Let us know what your thoughts are about what you ordered!

I"ve used both and like both of them but haven't really tested them to the extent I should. I really like 4786 for candles though. I think it has a great throw and I love the hardness of it in a container. I also think it would hold up better in heat which is what we have a lot of down here in Texas. I have some candles poured in 4630 though and might test it against 4786. As far as Problend, I like that wax too. I love the way it smells out of the bag. I mix it with some more paraffin to smooth it out though. I can't stand the ripples it gets. I think the cold throw on it is much better than all paraffin. I have been on the fence about all of this for almost 9 years now and all I can say is I think the oils makes the biggest difference but I could be very wrong. There are vendors who do very well with a para/soy blend, all paraffin or all soy. I think the majority of wax melt makers use para/soy though. I guess I really need to take better notes on my testing LOL! I bought some wax from two different vendors recently and one was a para/soy blend and the other is all paraffin plus I had some I had made with birthday cake and a blend of pro blend and some more paraffin (I'm thinking 4625 or 4794). All were birthday cake scent. They all smelled like a similar birthday cake oil was used but I have no way of knowing if that's the case. Anyway, I thought one was throwing better than the other but on the second testing it didn't seem that way so who knows. I'm going to send some to a wax friend and see if she can tell. I honestly don't think the difference will be enough to make a call one way or the other though. I think as long as you use good oils and your methods are consistent that you'll have a great throwing max melt. I just wish I could make up my mind on which wax I want to stick with myself LOL!

Ok, I just watched a video using popsicle sticks and clothes pins. I had to get a visual of this. I just couldn't wrap my head around it LOL! Thank you for your help!

Do your wicks make a straight line or are they sort of in a triangle? Do you use a clothespin for each wick? Sorry so many questions. I need a visual LOL!

I triple wicked some jar candles today but none of my wick bars would hold all three wicks where they needed to be or at least it didn't look that way. What do y'all do when you triple wick a jar to keep all three wicks straight. Thank you for any help!
