My suggestion is to check out www.candlescience.com they have wonderful prices, wick guides, wick kits etc., and they are sooo helpful, Dan was on the phone with me a good long time and offered tons of suggestions and advice, I gleaned what I could from Candlewealth, and am going on from here. There are wonderful sites such as this one which offer great help, I am not telling you what to do just offering what I have done. I wish you the best!!

She is precious!!

Thank you sweetly, I know some folks find them creepy, Scents for me I am not offended, I just hope it is because you found her to be realistic, if so I'll take that as a compliment. Creativegemsmolds, the woodland babies are Berenguer play dolls you get at Toys r Us. The others are more expensive dolls, the African American one is a silicone/vinyl mix by Pat Moulton, and the one with the tear in her eye is a Zapf doll from Germany.

Thanks for the honest opinions, I will see if my husband can make my next batch bigger and fit the curve better. Thanks for the complements on my woodland baby, here's a before pic of the next one I am working on. : I also do full size babies: And after I did my thang: The hair is hand rooted mohair, and yes my African American princess' took a loooong time! And this one was the last to be adopted before my wrist surgery:

They are beautimus!! The charms are just awesome!

Sure, here goes, it is a bit furzy, but I hope you get the idea: French Vanilla, no color added. From reading I know just to put 100% Soy Wax, not 100% Natural, since I used fo and not eo, thanks guys!

I am so excited to have found such a wonderful board, ya'll understand my love of candles even if everyone else might think I am a nut. The name I am using is Kimmy's Cutie Pies~n~Candles, since I also do reborn dolls. I took this picture with one of my woodland babies. This is just a container I had around the house, I plan on using oval hex's, but please give me input on my label, do you like it? The soy wax and fo came from my Instacandle kit I got from Candlewealth, but I decided I am not a recruiter, just want to make candles, so I am not dealing with them anymore, I posted on another thread about my experience.

Hi, new to the boards, I wanted to let you know of my experience. I found out about them thru an internet add, and the rep who called me was very nice, and even offered to come to my home to help me learn, she even said you don't have to recruit if you don't want, so she sponsered me as a free associate, and I got the Instacandle 5 pack since it was the cheapest thing I could get to just try out. Well, while waiting on my stuff, I kept doing research on the kits and such, and to tell you the truth it is not for little ole me who just wants to be happy makin' candles, not trying to build a network of candlemakers or candlemasters. The prices are expensive, and the 2 larger kits have things you use to recruit with, and you have to pay to maintain a website with them and to have access to their backoffice. I don't want to pay for things I have no intention of using. Plus, I was a bit peeved when I saw that I only have 10 CV's from my order and you MUST have 30 CV's to stay ACTIVE with the company, what if I got sick and didn't feel like making candles for a while, I guess I would be up the river. I am going to use the kits to dip bears, and I did end up making a candle which I am proud of, of course since it is my first. I actually used 2 kits to fill my container to the top, so double the fragrance, it is very strong. I will post a picture in the gallery. I am going to be using Candlescience as my supplier for wax, wicks, and containers since they are just a little over an hour from my house. So I will be a "candlemaster" one day, just not with this company. I suppose if you are into recruiting it may very well be a great company to work with, as they seem to provide a lot of conference calls and tools for you to build your team, so I am not bashing them, just saying it is not a good option if you simply want to have fun making candles at a reasonable price.
