Sherie

I have to agree with Sharon on that one too Jim! I've been using J223 for a few years now. I also switched to CD's and love them. I get a great hot throw. I usually use 1 oz/ppw and add it between 160-165 and pour between 155-160. So, we are on the same plane as far as temps.

LOL, you shouldn't have revealed your secret Garf! Thanks for sharing the candle safe item with us!

You all are so wonderful! I just want to thank each and everyone of you for looking and the great comments! I asked Kathy to let me know what they end of going for at the auction. I hope she does! It's not looking really good for him right now. He had 2 more serious seizures last week and the Neuro MD is starting to get skeptical (according to Kathy). I'm not feeling very good about that news. I will let my mom know that everyone loved her basket. She really is a very talented and generous lady!

Julie, if you don't mind, please email me the site that will host pics for free. I'd like to check it out. As for posting on this site, I guess I got confused. I've seen some posts with attachment links and ones with pics. Now I know that the pics are being hosted on another site. Thanks for the help with that ladies!

I've also had great success using a 30 Ply in 1343. I love your purple color!

Okay, how do you post a pic and the pic shows up instead of an attachment link?

Well, I delivered my baskets for the silent auction today. The big wicker basket is the Bamboo Sugar Cane pillars with 8 votives and 2 votive holders. The pink basket with flowers was embroidered by my mom. She wanted to contribute. B&B stuff would have been really nice in that basket but I didn't have any ready. I had some Sugar Plum Berry pillars already made so I stuck them in there and donated that too.

Absolutely awesome packaging! I like the black. It's sleek and unique! Bravo chic!

Yea, what MaryinCary said! LOL

I really like the color your have there! Beautiful candle and texture!

I did a search in the archives and found several threads about this, but then was unable to open them. I wondered if anyone has tried printing their own water slide decals on the special paper and if anyone has seen this paper for sale in stores? I went to the decal paper website and was going to order a pack to try, but they only ship UPS and the shipping on one pack of paper (20 sheets) was going to be almost $9. Wanted to get some opinions on it before I invested this much $$. Thanks.

Carol, I was a little unsure myself when I ordered them with the $9.00 shipping. I used them for on votive containers for a wedding (bride/grooms name and wedding date). They turned out wonderful and you really couldn't tell they were a decal unless you got right up close to them. The bride/groom were extremely satisfied with them. I basically told myself that if I didn't like them or I couldn't make them work, I could offer them for sale in the classifieds and someone (who is successful with them) might purchase them. Needless to say, I'm very satisfied with the end product and I didn't have any waste using them for the first time. HTH

YaaaaHoooo ! Tess, I CP'd Fruit Slices and did wonderfully. I'm sure yours will too!

LOL, those are too cute! Do they hold on to the sticks when they use the soap?

How cool! I wonder if you could some how put messages in them (like a real fortune cookie)? If so, those would be an awesome way to promote a discount or sale.

Those really look good enough to eat! Excellent job!

Excellent! Perfect for fall. I'd say you got mojo! LOL

Great job! I need to play with pyramid mold!

I didnt' see the Sherbert candles, but I like the two smaller ones!

Excellent colors and presentation!

I like the effect on the chunk too. I agree, light it and see how it glows.

Perfect color for that scent. Excellent candles, very smooth and creamy!

The colors are perfect for your FO theme! Beautiful job on the rustics!

I agree with everyone. I like the short oblique.

Very creamy and smooth! Nice job!

I so agree! Those have Harley written all over them. I bet the biker's would jump on that soap.

Now these are totally cool! They almost look like they are pearlized! Beautiful job girl!
