  1. Off topic but I love your labels! I would love to get some just to label my scents with but I dunno if having them made up would be worth it but the labels I'm using now keep falling off..is there a certain size you use and do they stay on well?

  2. My mom who is an avid lavender fan wanted to know if I could find her a sweet smelling lavender. Since I never melt lavender FO's does anyone know of one that is sweet smelling..not a herbal or medicinal one?

  3. I gave up on receiving my 3022 sample. I have no plans to sell wax I was just hoping to make my own and melt in opposed to the nearly $150 I was spending a week with vendors but at this rate it's becoming more expensive lol. You don't know how much I appreciate all the advice because I was beginning to think it was something I was doing wrong and then the discouragement sets in.

  4. I've tried the ky parasoy also. I let them cure anywhere from 2-3 weeks. Maybe they need to cure longer? I am having fun doing it I'm just getting discouraged and thinking possibly the 3-4 hr throw with hot plates is the normal.

  5. LOL..I admit I'm a bit obsessed with melting wax..which is why made me decide to start making it myself because I was spending so much with vendors but finding a blend that's compatible with these hot plate warmers is becoming just as expensive..I've tried so many waxes and nothing seems to last the 3-4 hr span in them :(

  6. That's what I was scared of, me chasing a dream trying to find the blend that works well in hot plates lol. I currently have 13 warmers in my house and love them but don't see much choice but possibly having to change them all out :(

  7. I might just give up on 4794 entirely. I've used so many different FO's. do you get longer lasting throwing with the 4625? I use a 24 watt hot plate and really don't want to change out all my warmers unless it's just hopeless to get a somewhat long lasted throw with the hot plate warmers.

  8. I was wondering if someone could give me their opinions on this. Been trying different blends with wax and I really like how the 4794 and 3022 tarts come out. Problem is the hot throw isn't lasting long at all. Adding FO at 185, stirring for 2 mins and tried using both 1 oz- 1.5 pp and I can't get my hot throw to last longer then 4 hrs tops. Could it possibly be that my 24 watt hot plates are just not working with this blend? I just can't seem to find a blend of wax that don't burn right out in my hot plates. Frustrated!!
