  1. I agree 100% about CW ,most are super duper strong. I have Voodoo love , atomic for sure . I love many of their oils. I wanted to ask you regarding Mahogany Spice compared to Aztec .Did you mean Leaves BBW dupe from Aztec or Autumn leaves ? I use so many from Aztec & cannot recall a Falling Leaves ,other than the both mentioned . Just was wandering if I am getting the name correct ? I know Flaming has a Falling Leaves , wanna get this one into my wax. I interested in CW mahogany spice & appreciate your post . Your very correct about sampling first with CW bc some have been a no go ,not many thou .I love most all of their U&B selections performance is great .Thanks in advance about the MS & Falling Leaves question. This one sounds really good .
  2. I will say Sarah s has the right idea on the 141 ,would have to be blended with a good container wax for melts . I use the 4625 pillar & blend with container for melts . I would think the 141 would be great for blending as well .
  3. Sorry for delay in response .I have some major house remodeling going on atm. I have tried CW 141 & did not like the high melting point .I do highly recommend their 129 for melts , great throw & great wax imo. The 129 has a much lower melting point for melts .
  4. I am so confused as to what may have went wrong bc I always ordered the premium & no issues ever . It's been a while back & ordered twice now . I an guessing he received a bad batch or something . I will call in my order & be sure to ask him for the exact same beads ,I received a couple months ago . They were really great & no issues at all. I know I ordered the Premium .
  5. Ok at this point ,I consider myself lucky to have received the hood beads . If I place another order for premium beads ,will I be getting the same as I originally started with . ? never had a issue & performance was great .I am out& need to order asap . Thanks in advance . Kat
  6. The beads I used only took a day to dry & performance was great . I never received any of the problem beads . I hope the issue has been resolved ,I need to place another order asap . If they are taking that long to soak up the oils ,sounds like the problem beads . Hope I am not going to be wasting money on my next order . Customers have been very happy with the freshners so far . The beads I received were the best ever ,love these .
  7. Belinda,The beads that soak up over night, are the good beads . I personally never received any of the problem beads from this company .I have had great results with all the ones I have received . I know a couple of members here were having a issue . I think the problem has been resolved by now. I will be ordering again soon & love the results with the ones I used from Plasticpellets4fun. Yours should be fine .I am very happy with these myself & get good feedback . I have a ornie in my car going strong still after 5 weeks now . Let me know how yours are performing . Thank you bunches . Kat
  8. The beads I purchase from Plasticpellets4fun only take a day to dry ,some scents will take 2 .Are you getting your beads from this company?
  9. Let me know if you attempt to make your own ,please post a pic . I am excited to hear about this adventure . Kat
  10. I absolutely love the MF from Aztec ,I get great throw ,smell is spot on to BBW as well. I will be more than happy to send you a sample . I have plenty 😉 Kat Oh I just remembered ,I need to mail Trapp a sample well ,as promised a while back lol.i will definitely do this tomorrow .
  11. I know it's so hard dealing with chronic pain . It's quite the challenge to do these crafts right . I try to stay positive & keep moving forward ,I find it helps me alot emotionally to stay busy as possible . It certainly beats sitting around feeling down about my condition. I do have good days & bad . It would be nice to have everyday turn out to be a good day kwim. I wish you all the best !!!!! Kat
  12. Appears to have smooth tops now. Did you cool the wax down before cooling ? At what temp did you pour to get these results ? The reason I ask is bc I have some 450 & this wax is believed to be the same as 133 . I plan on test pouring the 450 soon for melts . A member here ,sent me some melts he made with the 450 & performance was super Imo. It was RE pumpkin lattee & a couple more . Hang in there you will find the comfort zone for this wax.
  13. So the beads should be the good ones ,same as we got a while back . I hope so bc they were so good .
  14. I am so shocked to hear the beads are not working out .I will be placing a new order soon & compare .I am thinking I might better call him & ask if the beads are the same as the ones I purchased a while back . I want the same bc I loved the results & had no issues at all .In fact the beads were the best I ever worked with . I am Leary to order now ,fear they may not be the same .It's such a waste of money to invest & cannot even use the beads . I will certainly talk to the owner & see what kind of info I can get.
  15. I find this interesting .How do you make your own cutters? What a great idea !
  16. I put mine in the polypropylene zip bags & store in a huge file cabinet I have ,away from the sun & light Keeps the scents fresh kwim .
  17. I have good luck with Candlesource leather oil ,soaks up super fast . I also do a cherry & vanilla leather . I add 1oz oil per cup = 6oz of beads .
  18. I know that will really make you furious bc it's not always such a easy thing to come up with such unique catching names for products & then to see a company is actually benefitting the rewards from your own original name you thought of yourself. Yes once patented it is unfortunately to late . Sorry you have to see the name & success someone's else is getting from what was once Yours .
  19. The few I know of that will really go after violations are Louis Vuitton,Chanel,Prada,Juicy Couture & Lacoste . I know there has to be hundreds more as well . It is best to take TallTs advice & change the names on all wanna be type scents kwim. I see so many online items for sale, labeled with name brand types & not authentic. I often wander how so many can & do get away with selling these knock off items . I once purchased a Juicy Couture necklace & hand bag for my daughter & go figure it was not authentic at all . I had to return the both of them .Lol she would have known the difference for sure . I would have never thought Kool aid would be one of those companies . I find that one interesting . I guess one should not sell melts,candles etc.. labeled Kool-Aid or Hawaiian Punch lol,certainly not worth the risk right
  20. Trapp ,so very nice of you to offer . I just love the firestarters you create,so awesome . I know your super busy with all your accounts and I soooo appreciate your offer . I will be more than happy to cover the shipping for some smaller pine cones . I see cones for sale in stores during the holidays ,most are the giant cones scented with cinnamon oil ,way to big for a fire starter kwim. I want to make starters that look like the ones you made . I think they are neat to use during the holidays for decorating kwim. Lol I don't need a whole lot ,just a handful to make myself & my daughter's some for decor ,just love the ones you created in the pics . I think they will love these to set out & admire . What a terrific idea & so unique . The things that can be created with wax ,love yours so unique .Thank you so very much. I need to get you the Marshmellow fireside oil I have from Aztecs out this week . I have been so overwhelmed with pouring lately, I can finally take a break now . I did not forget about sending you some of this new oil . It is a great scent ,think you will like this one . Thank you bunches , Kat 😀😀😀
  21. Yes it's best to avoid any kind of issues . I know many lawsuits have occurred ,due to trademark infringements on with so many companies today . It's really not worth the risk kwim .
  22. Also not everyones oven cooks the same ,so keep an eye on them during cook time . I have been watching my time more closely & turned my temp down since I started this project .Seems 7-9 mins was not long enough & 375 was a bit to high .
  23. I find that 350 for 10 minutes for average size cutter is perfect for me. I do have some extra large & extra small shapes ,so I adjust accordingly .
  24. I can certainly get my hands on lots if those . I love the pine cones & wish they were plentiful here . I have tons of pecan trees ,not sure if pecans would work ,hulls anyways lol
  25. Honestly I have never used any painted cutters ,seems to me this should not be the issue . This is really a mystery to me ,as to why the beads are causing you these problems . I would ask for a refund or assistance with the co. I have had such great results so far & been thru many lbs already . I hope you can get the problem solved ,it is discourageing to say the least Kat
