I absolutely LOVE JS strawberry jam!! It is super strong and has very good scent throw in J50 I don't know what kind of wax you use but I highly recomend this one
-
I have the chart but it suggests 9 different sizes for 2-3" container. Was just wondering if anyone uses them and has suggestions so I don't have to test them all.

Hi everyone, I just received a whole box of samples from Wick It and I can't dedide where to begin. I make container candles 2.5" diameter. I use J50 and usually scent heavier than 1oz per pound. I have been using 51-32-18z or 44-24-18z I find that 51z soots and mushrooms too much but has a great melt pool. The 44z has much less soot and mushrooming but the melt pool is minimal and leaves wax hang up on the sides of the jar. OK now you know my life story, my question is which size Premeir 700 would you start with to try and go between those two zinc wicks? Thanks for any and all input :highfive:

Hi everyone. Just trying to get some opinions. Is Peak or JS better when it comes to Mulberry? What are the differences? Thanks
-
Thanks everyone! I was thinking of burgandy
-
Hi everyone. I have a customer asking for a Mulberry scented candle. I have to order this oil and want to make sure that the color is right. What color do you use? Peaks says red, green or black. I'm not sure. Is Peak or JS better? Thanks, Trisha

I have never heard of this site before. Have you had any luck selling on there? Looks like it is a European site.

Ebay is tough! I don't know how and where these people are getting their products and selling so cheap:undecided I have searched online wholesale companies and just found a bunch of frauds! That is why is just wanted to sell my candles, but it seems Yankmee are the only ones selling. (they suck) I guess I just have to keep researching Thanks
-
Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone is having any success selling container candles on Ebay? Just want to know about any experiences before I try :tiptoe: Darn sure don't want to waste my money on the listing fees!
-
Glad to know I'm not going crazy:p You will NOT catch me wasting wax on this one! Now that I smelled it again it does remind me of nasty butt. JS should discontinue Sunshine, or at least warn of the disgustingness
-
Has anyone smelled this FO? I ordered a full pound just based on the desrcription and I am soooo disapointed. It actually smells like dirt to me. I don't think I'm crazy, but it really smells BAD. Maybe I got a bad batch or something? Let me know what ya'll think
-
Hi everyone. I heard about these wicks a while back here. I was wondering if anyone has tested in J50 2-3 in diameter containers or anything close? I requested a sample about 3 weeks ago and have not heard anything. Also anything on the superior 600 series?? TIA Trisha Feel free to PM me if ya want
-
Hey ya'll. I'm lookin for a real true basil scent. Not mixed with any other scent. Can anyone out there give some suggestions? Also, has anyone had luck selling a candle that scent? TIA
-
I use the exact same wax and wick combo in 8oz jelly jars. There is always mushrooming with the first burn. Other fo's burn a little better with only one trim and then they never mushroom again? I can't figure it out so I just deal with it because so far this has been the best combo for me:rolleyes2 I have read that all wicks will either mushroom or smoke so just use what works best or makes you happy so you don't spend a fortune like I did

Searching for Richest, Strongest Throwing Vanilla
trisha replied to CandleCouture's topic in Fragrance Discussion
I love JS Vanilla Bean. I think it is the most pure vanilla scent I've ever smelled. The hot and cold throw is awsome in J50 -
From Peaks. Anyone tried this scent? My customers all love Vanilla. I don't have a clue what Amber smells like. Anyone out there fill me in on this scent? TIA
-
If you like J223 why not just order it from somewhere else. Bitter Creek and Lone Star I know carry it. Why stray away from a wax you like because of where you order it from. Just my opinion. Unless you're looking for something new?:undecided
-
I just noticed that sometimes they are really bad. The whole jar has wet spots. Will this happen if you heat the jar really hot and pour at 170? I never know how hot to heat the jar. Most of the time I pour at 165. I use J50
-
I was wondering why they are called wet spots. I was a bit confused on that. From what I understand they are impossible to avoid. I have heated jars different temps and poured cooler and still the same. But I don't love them. Sorry:confused:
-
I think this is what my candles have. I use J50 and 8oz jj and every one of my candles have clear spots all around the container. It's more visible with darker colors. Are these wet spots or just wax separating from the jar? How do you fix this? I heat my jars and still the same:undecided Does the temp. of the jar have anything to do with it
-
Sounds like too pink for my taste. I was just curious. I think I'll use burgandy with a little drop of purple. Thanks for all th info:D
-
I was looking at color suggestion for Peak's Wild Rasberry and that is what it suggested. Can anyone show me what this looks like? I can't decide wether to use purple or a reddish color. Let me know what ya'll think.
-
I get my purple liquid and all others from Candle Science. It just seems like I have to add way too much to get a good dark purple. I usually have to add a lot of black to it other wise it comes out Barney purple
-
I use J50 and have also had problems with purple. Maybe it's the wax. Anyone else use it? How are your colors if you do?
-
Where do you buy your color chips? Everyone else who does liquid dye where do you get it? Tell me about your luck with all colors, PLEASE:D
