OMG Trappeur, that movie haunted my nightmares for years... the caving scenes were bad enough, add the creatures and it just pushed me over the edge.. LOL

Trappeur these are awesome looking and certainly fills a missing need in the candle community. I agree with OG if you can keep costs down while still making it worth your while, you will have definitly scored here!

Belinda! Burning my Creme Brûlée as we speak and my entire house is full of the aroma! Thanks for the recommendation..fyi, I'm burning in an 8 oz Mason with 6006 and a 44-36-18 zinc wick! I waited a full week to burn (I know it should have been longer). I cant even fathom that more cure time could improve on this! Thanks again and Happy New Year!

Aztecs Vanilla Peppermint and Fillmores Christmas Tree! Merry Christmas everyone!

I have really enjoyed following this post Vickie! Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas!

This is wonderful news and thanks for sharing! It's wonderful to see each others successes!

Old Glory, I have some of those 16 ouncers from Aztec but have not been able to come up with a good combination to get anything in them to burn well. Thanks for the suggestions. Lots of great new ideas to test in 2016 (including Premier wicks, you've sold me)

Beautiful candles!Love the colors

No pressure or anything Trappeur, but by my estimates it's time to start your testing Can't wait to hear your results!

Belinda! Thanks for the suggestion! I've only used Aztecs Creme Brulee and it smells great, but their customer service lately has pushed me to look for other suppliers....ordered this scent from Cajuns yesterday and can't wait to try it!!

That's actually a great idea! Tobacco was the first one I made and they loved it. I have Mistletoe Kisses and it is subtle, so would be perfect actually...thank you so much for the input. I think I'm going to underwick a bit as i think they burn longer than normal...Thanks again!

Thanks Oh Glory, I definitly will. I manage numerous nurses, physicians and some pretty heavy hitters and wouldn't have my job if I treated people the way I was treated today. I am a customer and deserve some basic respect but what I got was "that's just the way it is". Sad as Aztec is close and I really love 6006. I will check out the place in Atlanta, thanks for the info. Check your PM.

Just to update you as well, I just contacted Aztec because I needed to order some new 6006 and my last order came straight in the box no covering, and was covered in dust and flecks from the cardboard. I wanted to make sure that was a fluke (and then check the lot #) but didn't get that far. I was told thats just how it is, straight in the box. No apologies, no answers. Very disappointing. I guess I need a new supplier in general.

Hi guys. I rarely post here but follow these posts avidly. I have a cause that's dear to my heart and need to pull from all of your experience and knowledge. A school friend of my children (grown now) lost her baby to a domestic violence situation, and if that wasnt enough, since the state couldnt go after the abuser quite as easily, they instead aggresively pursued this young lady who was a victim.as well, and since her family was so devestated emotionally, spiritually and financially, she once again payed the price and she herself is in prison. 2 years later, the abuser was finally convicted and much came to light to exonerate this poor young woman. All this to say, the grandparents (parents) are living with this tragedy and injustice and we all try to support as much as possible. A few months ago I made the grandmother a candle in a 16 oz wide mouth mason, LX 18, 6006 wax, Aztec tobacco scent and she adored it. Apparently she keeps candles burning round the clock, so I would like to make her some nice candles that would burn slow and long yet bring some joy in the way of scent. I am open to buying any supplies, but have the 8 and 16 oz WM masons, 12 oz salsas, 6006, 444, 464, 415, and lots of wicks, scents. Any ideas would be appreciated. Also, on a personal note, always question what you read out there, the media can make or break any of us at any time, and please keep this family in your prayers! Thank you in advance! Nancy

I have never seen this. I hope someone gets back to you soon!
