I have a customer who would like to order a few dozen candles for centerpieces and would like to know if I could add glitter to them??
1 - would that be cosmetic grade so they dont combust?? lol
2 - HOW do I do that????
Thanks for any input....

I just started ordering from her site - free shipping - cant beat that -
Her Butterscotch and Vanilla are wonderful as well as Apples & Oak - which is sometimes hard to find for me.
I look forward to trying some other scents from her - I just ordered Cucumber Melon and Lilac & Lilies. They should be here by the end of the week..

Does anyone know if there is any PLAYDOH scented oil out there - or how to mix one up??
Thanks!!!

That is why I prefer to make my own. Its really easy - and I get my warning labels at ICS.
Hopefully someone will come by soon and have another company for you.

I have always wondered this as well - thanks for asking the question!

Have any of you tried refilling a colonial at home jar (I think it is 12 oz?) for yourselves of course... I am trying to figure out the wicking for pure soy in that oval container - I know it will have to be double wick - but I dont even know where to start. I have been making candles for over 5 years and this one has me stumped!!
-
It also would depend on how much fragrance oil you are using as that affects the wicking and also sometimes types of oils. Some of the heavy oils need to be wicked up and maybe you havent used any of those..

Just awesome!!!!
Are they anti bacterial too??? I have been looking for antibacterial hand soap base.. Big germophobes at my house
-
I dont know - I think $100 is pretty good.. it could have been WAY WORSE!!! Right??? It probably covered the cost of the space and got people aware of who you are.. and get ready for the fall craft show circuit, those are always the best - I dont usually have luck with shows between may-aug..
Your set up looked beautiful!!

For me, I found my minimum amount for getting rid of frosting without having to wick up and for me it was 1 tbsp of the white pastilles per lb.. I didnt want to get into weighing.. lazy... lol
Good Luck

OMG lol too funny scrubzz -
I would say goodbye to the kitchen - cuz I havent seen mine in 3 years!! lol

Again I would have to say ICS..
-
Well without you saying who you've already tried... I have really enjoyed the ICS one - and customers swear its an exact dupe..
-
Well not exactly just vanilla caramel but the best i have used has been Caramel Latte from Indiana Candle Supplies - Smells AWESOME and yummy as the creamer!

This jar SUCKED! for me with pure soy - it never burned right.. Then I was told that smooth sided jars work best for soy - any kind of hex , dex whatever jar I have tried never burned right..
Sorry I wasnt much help - but I htp1212 is what was best for me - still not getting a complete burn though..

Beautiful candles!!!!!

I am not too sure if men really like cologne scent in their car - at least my customers dont really like that - BUT my #1 sellers with men are Fresh Squeezed Oranges and Black Cherry as well as Pier 1's First Rain..
Good Luck!!

I am kind of with Cabin Creek... Or you can hammer it up, put it in zip locks and call it misc wax crumbles- people buy that stuff up!!!

I like Indiana Candle Supplies Lavender Vanilla - I even use it in my linen sprays as well as my pure soy candles..
Good Luck

Sorry to butt in - but I wouldnt double wick it either -
I have never double wicked - if a container is too big for one wick - I dont use - I dont like how double wicked candles burn, look and the amount of heat generated is a concern too me..

Customers love the Pink Grapefruit I get from ICS... is that plain?? Is there a regular grapefruit scent out there??

Adding Glitter to Pure Soy Container Candles???
in Vegetable Wax & Beeswax Candle Making
Posted
Thanks!
I did end up doing that - but I wasnt getting answers I was looking for - I am looking to glitter up the whole candle in the container - not just the tops - I guess I will experiment and then post my results
