Any plastic container with the number 5 on the bottom is fine for your melts.  They will not lose any scent.  

You can find quite large ones in any walmart or target.  

Lookin' good! 

Great information Candybee....I will keep this info if I ever sell wholesale. 

And good luck to you njcurely!!

Well this is what I do....

I put a 10 pound block in a very heavy duty plastic bag and loosely close the end.

I take a hammer and pound away.  

Great stress reliever.

I kinda like Belinda's method too!

Very cool looking soap.  

Well if you read facebook posts after he announced the closing, there sure is more to the story!  His wife Nachelle Wallace made a few comments to help clarify the situation. Not pretty.  I dont want to quote or judge, so please go to the facebook post to see for yourselves.

They're both beautiful as usual! I'm so sorry to hear of her friend's who have cancer. It is a tough battle for sure. 

I think I like the first one better only because I like where it says "with much love" and it has some teal color to the flowers which would go well with the teal colored candle, but they are both equally beautiful. 

I agree!

Congratulations on your new account!

LOVE the jars and definitely the sleek black lids!

Your label is gorgeous...but my eyes were drawn to the smaller font with the word Gallery...it threw me off a bit.  Sight wise that is. 

Hello Amaiya.   There is a link pinned under the Business Side of Things forum.

You will find a lot of ideas and tips that should help you get on your way.

Love it!  

I have been using Fillmore.  No problems here.

Wow, those are beautiful!!

DITTO!!!

When I lived in NM for 10 years, my oils were in a cabinet in the garage above my work area...pretty dang warm in there during the summer months and pretty damn cold during the winter months.  Oddly enough only a very few of my oils ever went bad!  And some were there for a few years.  Just goes to show you how some or most oils can take a lot of abuse.

 Now that I am in the northeast, they are stored in the basement in a cabinet. 

I agree!  VERY nice scent.  I used it in melts with CBL 141 and the throw was outstanding. 

I guess I am 'old school' and use the double boiler system after transferring the wax from the presto pot  into the pour pot. 

When all ingredients are mixed in, I take it out of the double boiler and wait till the pouring temperature is reached, then pour. 

May have to purchase a griddle!

Bonfire Bliss...very nice. 

Definitely the old tyme lids...either color.  of course they are the most expensive!

  And number 5 for the label....so so pretty.  It would make me buy the candle.

I use paraffin, CBL 141...and I fill it up to the where the rim starts.  Sometimes I wait a couple of hours and fill to the top of the rim.

Sometimes I don't even get to it till the next day.  I pour a tad hotter on the second pour.

Like Scented, I make one repour.   And a quick blast of the heat gun will indeed take care of any "imperfections"!

If I had to do a third repour, it would be too time consuming.

Do you have to choose one?  I would use both!

I like #1.  It looks like it would fit right in with what you said she offers in her shop.

.

Basically, you make enough tarts for all the participants. When you receive the box back from me, it will contain every participants products. Everyone will get the same items in their box. I will determine what size USPS Priority Box I will need to use to fit all the tarts in.  Once determined, I will notify all of you with my PayPal address and you can send the postage via PayPal.  Once I receive payment I will mail the box to you .

Moonstar...it really is pretty simple!  Maybe go back and read the instructions at the beginning of the thread in the Swap Forum ?  If you still have questions, please ask! 

Still more slots to fill!   I know you are out there!!

Nothing  to be shy about!  Nothing fancy schmancy expected so sign up!! 

Thanks for taking this on TallTayl.  You will do an amazing job!  So happy this board will thrive! 

This news is just so shocking.  God bless Vicky...may she rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers are sent to her family and friends. 

So very sad.
