  1. Some waxes just shrink less than others, during cooling. I think palm wax is one of those that people have trouble de-molding, because it doesn't shrink enough to pull away from the sides of the mold. If you're used to pure parrafin, it generally shrinks more than any other, if memory serves.
  2. I was 'visiting' a 'friend', when her hubby came home early. She had me hide in the closet, then forgot about me, FOR FOUR MONTHS ! Sheeeeesh.
  3. You may have trouble getting such pics. I think most of us carefully destroy all evidence of having made a candle that looks like it came from Wal-mart. I know I do.
  4. Wal-Mart has some frosted glass ones for $1 each. They fit a 3 inch well. You might try some place like Pottery Barn or whatever they're called, for those ceramic ones like you have in the picture.
  5. Not a real answer to your question, but one trick I use is to pour one vanilla candle and one unscented, wicking them the same, with my best guess, gives me a pretty good idea of where I'm at, with any new mold. Don't know if that helps, but iot's there.
