    No, I wouldn't think so. The paper fresheners have an absorbent layer in the middle. Regular card stock might fall apart.

    I order bottles on a regular basis from WSP but have not had shipping costs. There is a handling fee which I think is the $5 but I'll pay that any day over shipping. Their website is amazing. On the other hand, I love RE. I have never been disappointed with products or customer service and will miss them tremendously. I hope the 'family' feel never goes away.

    Just received an email that they are selling to WSP.

    Aztec sells warmers from candlewarmers.com without the minimum purchase. But to get the best deal you have to buy a case of 6.

    Thank you, I will do that

    I have not. I realized that my tax certificate was canceled due to zero sales. I still need 4 lbs if someone is willing to order and let me pay them.

    Yes. They note by Candle Science. Where are you located?

    Would anyone be interested in sharing a 10lb order of the smoke/odor eliminator with me from AFI? It is $16lb but I don't need 10lbs.

    It will if you leave them in too long. Only dip them long enough to absorb the fragrance on the whole freshener and pull it out. I had a few customers that I would resoak them for.

    I used to use these from Bell. I loved them but just didn't have the space for them to dry. I dipped them in a dish with fragrance and dpg and hung them to dry. They do not last as long as the aroma beads. http://www.wicks-wax-scents.com/texas-boots-horses.html

    Room spray

    cp0421 posted a topic in Wickless

    I am absolutely drawing a blank here. I have been making candles very successfully for 20 years and the room spray and reed diffusers are kicking my rear. I am using the RE room spray which can hold up to 9% and diffuser base from CS which holds up to 25%. How do I mix it? I poured some base in a 2.7 aluminum bottle to figure out how much it would hold. It scaled at about 1.5oz but when i poured it into a measuring cup, it was 3oz by volume. Do i measure the base by volume and the fragrance by weight? Both by volume? both by weight?

    I agree with Belinda on Texas Candle Supplies.

    I have used 4786 for 19 years and I am still very satisfied. The only difference that i have noticed is that it is definitely easier to break. I tried the one-pour but just didn't get the HT or the vibrant colors that i get with the 4786. The 2nd pour is well worth it to me.

    I used Cajun's for years, mostly because of shipping but recently switched to Plastic Pellets4fun premium beads. I can't believe the difference. I never could get the Cajun beads to absorb a large amount of fragrance without waiting 2 weeks. Plastic Pellets 4 fun, 2 days at most but you have to constantly shake them because they absorb so fast and the colors are very rich. Since they offer free shipping the cost is about the same for me. I go through about 50 lbs a month so they have definitely made my job easier.

    I too, do not use any dye for white ones. Works fine.

    Here is the description: Sophisticated, metropolitan fragrance of manly spice notes, Mediterranean citrus and herbs, and bitter orange. Maybe you can find something similar with the same notes.

    I mix 2 parts DPG and 1 part fragrance, anything stronger than that seems to smoke quite a bit. I cut the tops off 16oz fragrance bottles and can soak up to 100 sticks at a time. I soak for a minimum of 24 hrs and lay flat on a cookie rack with paper towels underneath until they dry. I also store the leftover mixture in 16oz bottles for the next time and just add to it when it gets low. Packaged in the 2" x 12" bags and stick a 2"x2" label on the front.

    Thank you. I have an account with them. Papermart also has some good prices

    Thank you so much for the suggestions. I've tried the foam mats and they got nasty real quick but haven't thought of the paper. Lowe's has rolls of paper which are reasonably priced.

    We are very close to finishing my shop. At first I was not going to do anything with the concrete slab but now I'm second guessing myself. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Yes, I have tried both as well as Rustic, Candlescience and Aztec but I keep going back to Bittercreek. I do love the Red Bandana and Leather and Lace from Texas but BC Leather is my favorite. I order 3 lbs at a time because shipping takes so long but it's worth it. I can send you a sample if you would like.
