  1. Absolutely gorgeous! I think it looks and I'm sure it smells like a raspberry cordial (you can use the name if you want!!). Love it, love it, love it.
  2. Sent ya a PM....and thanks so much for offering this!
  3. It reminds me of colorful ink blots...they are gorgeous! I wish I could smell it...sounds devine. Do you know what you are going to call it or are you calling it kitchen sink? Could be like the DumDum mystery flavor!
  4. Nice....love that soap...looks truly scrumptious!
  5. I love AG...and your soap definitely reminds me of it! Love the glitter!
  6. What temp did you pour? You need to pour at a higher temp (175-190F) Also, it needs to cool slowly. I wrap my container or mold with a towel. I have even put a container in my double boiler water after turning off the heat and allowing to cool in there. HTH!
  7. Here someone made a chunk and it says the FO is king cake. I love how this looks! http://www.candletech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14252&highlight=king+cake HTH!
  8. Those look great...I like how you chose two fruits with black seeds. They are very nice together. I personally love watermelon and kiwi... I bet kiwi and strawberry with the poppy seeds would be nice as well!! Great job!
  9. Four-tenths (4/10) is equal to Two-fifths (2/5) because you can reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator(the upper number) and denominator(the lower number) by two. So 4 divided by 2 is 2 10 divided by 2 is 5 so 4/10 is equal to 2/5 Just like a quarter dollar (25cents/100cents) can be divided by 25 and make 1/4 (hence the quarter). Not sure if that helps!
  10. Ideas... Wrap with twine or hemp instead of raffia to make a little more rustic, maybe with a twig or two. Dip the exposed edges in something to make it look sandy or dirty (poppy seeds, finely ground oats). Sounds like fun...I would love to see what you come up with!
  11. I smelled the archipelago candle in Havana yesterday. I thought I would not like it but I was pleasantly surprised that I did. I need to try this oil and the indonesian teakwood. Oh, lordy, my list keeps getting longer and longer!
  12. I love it! How about "South Beach" for a name?
  13. I used dye block (all I had was shrimp which is a light pink and I added some red to it to make it more dark pink). When I pulled it out of the votive mold, my DD asked why is the candle "crap colored" if it is pink sugar. Gotta love the kiddies! (She just had her 16th birthday on Friday). Maybe it was the dye block vs liquid. I know that it has a lot of vanilla in it so it can turn. I think someone here made some pink sugar votives that were brown but she topped them off with a pink top with no FO and they looked really nice. Will have to try again to see what I get.
  14. Is there any way that you could see the writing? If you used ball point, there might be a possibility that you may be able to see the writing under the marker, especially if you wrote with a heavy hand. Sorry that happened. My kids get into my stuff too and it drives me nuts.
  15. Dealing with the ceiling fan (I don't have one so I can't relate) I would be more concerned with soot and actually burning of the candle. If my wick is the slightest bit too long and I get a draft, I get soot. Being the scientist that I am, I wonder if you have the fan with the blades turning so the air pushes down (you might have scent pushing down toward the ground) I wonder if you got down lower than the candle if you would smell it there? Or, if you have the blades turning the other way, that it is sucking it out of the room and the scent is up by the ceiling? I would just turn off the fan.
  16. So glad you like it! I have a votive burning and it smells fab! Did you get a brown candle? I did when I made it. Angie
  17. I know that you can take onion or other strong smells off of your hands by rubbing them on stainless steel. I rub my hands on the kitchen faucet when I am cooking. I have never tried that with the FO issue, but I guess it is worth a very free try!
  18. I didn't get that Donita...what is your secret formula again? Now, seriously, those balloon canes look fantastic. I would like to try making canes like you do! I saw your other tutorial...can't wait for this one as well!
  19. You are such a New Yorker.:highfive: Bring your cousin Guido (or someone who looks like a Guido) to the market as "protection.":cool2:
  20. The dotted one reminds me of a lava lamp...I like it. Love the odd chunks...very creative! Good Job!
  21. I think this is the oil that is supposed to smell like marijuana.
  22. Looks like a roll of lifesavers 5 flavor I've seen Monkey Farts changed to Monkey Chow (not sure if that is helpful)
  23. Healing salve Healing ointment Nature's miracle salve Herbal healer herbal healing ointment/salve That's what I could come up with!
