Do you like making wax chunks ? I am not familiar with soy or palm ,if the wax is soft enough ,you could certainly make alot of chunks . I have some palm to play with ,waiting for time to experiment a bit with candle making . I love the look of palm candles . If you do not want to make candles ,tarts or chunks will be the solution .

I hope FB oil works out for you . I just now saw & read a topic a member posted under weekly sales about a month ago ,regarding a supplier called Essentials by Catalina ,well guess what lol ,I just had to go check them out ,being the oil Aholic I am. Guess what they have the VBN for $26 a lb ,think that's the correct price i remember from this morning . This company has so many scents I would love to test ,go figure right . The issue is the price $3.75 per oz What a price tag ,so I am thinking these must be extra Concentrated superior quality oils idk ,just thinking kwim. The lb bottles range around $26 average ,unless it is a surplus scent .The surplus oils are around $20-25 a lb. It is a High price to pay for samples ,however I am really wanting to try out a handful just see if these are super great quality . I am hoping the oils are really strong & only require 1/2oz per lb. The VBN will be the first one to go into my cart . I see a similar scent to PPW called Pumkin Maple Pancakes ,same as PPW dupe of BBW scent . May be slightly different idk. I sure am curious as to what this one smells like against PPW . They also have Apple Pumpkin Pancakes a BBW dupe ,soooo many to choose from . I can always just order about 5 scents & see what happens ,without breaking my bank account lol. This company has my interest enough to try a few samples. I will not be out to much ,if I just stick to about 5 samples. Lol I think it is the High price that has me curious as to the quality of the oils . I will let you know if I order & send you a VBN sample to test as well ,may be worth a try . I did not get to the shipping cost yet , shall find out soon . Keep me posted on your FB vbn test. Trapp you love CS as much as I love Candlewic right .I know ship is really high & detours you from CW Thanks always! Kat

If you don't mind me asking ,Which scent did you order & what was the issue ? Just may have been a scent you were expecting to smell a bit different perhaps??? How was the quality rateing ? Great ,Good ,Fair in your opinion? Sorry to pester you ,lol I am a fragrance oil Aholic lol. I see so many I want from this company ,however the price is a bit expensive for samples & do not want to jump in on lb bottles until I test some kwim.Thank you so very much 😉 Kat

Thinking they must be very concentrated & can get by with 1/2 per lb. Just maybe my brain working overtime ,very pricey oils ,most pound bottles are $26 & up .
-
Wow the oils are SUPER Expensive. I would think they must must be superior quality right . A sample bottle is $3.75 per oz . Lol I do see soooo many I would like to test in my wax . Not many reviews on all the scents ,however the ones with reviews are super good comments . I may give 10 samples a try & see what happens ,shipping will be $21 UPS to Tx ,woo pricey .
-
I just saw your post .I have never heard of this supplier . Have you used their oils ? If so what do you recommend ,I love to try new oils . Thanks Kat
-
I know exactly what you mean ,prices for many are super expensive ,also free ship still has handling charges . I do have a hand full I do not want to go without ,so I grab these during sales when I can . I never pay full price for any of the oils . I continue to watch for flash sales & other sales thru out the year. I do recall getting a 35% discount in the past on all fragrances ,I was told they said that they never had a 35% off sale . This had to have come from a newer employee at WSP bc other members & myself have received this discount in the past . The sale is usually around the end of November & the beginning of each New Year. I found replacements for many I have used & liked . The VBN is one I wrote off . I do use Jelly Donut & this one is a bit cheaper than VBN . I am in search of a VBN ,if know of a good one lmk .Thanks I'm advance . Lol you have me wanting to try their Raspberry lemonade , however I use Candlesource Pink lemonade ,super strong & way way cheaper. It to is a raspberry ade . I think some scents are just not worth the High price in the long run ,always other suppliers with great oils kwim.

A Big Hello from South ,Texas! I admire your love for animals ,the world needs more like you 😉 Blessings ,Kat -
I bake at 375 for 8-12 minutes , depending on the size of the cutters. I have some cutters that are larger size ,so these do take a bit longer I also have started filling my cutters to the very top ,makes the ornies thicker. I noticed they shrink down quite a bit after cooling ,so I try to make them on the thicker side .

Yes another .99 sale ,seems it is not going to end here lately. I will get the Pumpkin spice for sure . I also have Spooky Punch in my cart ,lol along with wayyyy to many others . I definitely want to try their BD cake ,so many comment on how great this scent is . I will make my final 20 selections this evening ,sale goes until Sept 18th . I just cannot resist this sale ,being they are in Tx I should have already tried LS oils .😉

Thank you ,I did see Hawaiian breeze ,with great reviews .I definitely added this one to my cart . I did not see Hollyberry or Sleigh bells ,will go back and check. I see Dickens Christmas has great reviews . I want to try Spooky Punch for Halloween,sounds interesting . I need to narrow my selections down to about 20 ,lol I have way to many already in my cart .It's hard to resist at .99 a sample kwim. I have to get their B Day cake ,have heard so many great reviews on this one . Raspberry Violet sounds unique ,I love to blend fruity/ florals & never heard if this combination . I live in Texas & never ordered from this company ,I look forward to trying their oils . Thank you bunches !

Looking for some great finds for the Lone Starv .99 sample sale ?Thank you in advance ! Kat

Yes adding at high temp will do the trick . I think eventually you would love a presto pot with a spiget to drain the melted wax into you pour pot ,such a breeze when making melts ,verses stove top melting . You can get these on Amazon or ebay for around $50 to $75 . Keep pouring & have fun while doing so 😉 Kat

I agree it is awesome !

I really love your pumpkin mold ,us this silicone ? I want one lol..

I agree 100% with Belinda ,adding the oil at 180-190 is the solution,this allows the oil to bind well to your wax . I notice with all vanillas it is a definite must b/c vanillas are heavy & stubborn . If you dont mind me asking where do you purchase your wax ? I think you will get a great melt if you add the oil at a much higher temperature . I hope all improves for you . 😉

I kwym on these sales Trapp ,I to have spent so much lately on sales .I get hit & miss with WSP oils .Their oils seems to work great or be a total dud with no scent throw . I would say it's about half & half for me with this company . I do love their Apline cheer,Jelly Donut & Frasier Fir . I do purchase about 10 scents I love from them ,however none of these are pumpkin scents . The White pumpkin creme sounds interesting & I already have many of the 21 that are on sale ,some are good & some not . I agree with you the VBN oil is outrageously expensive. I decided not to order this one any longer due to the High price.I am going to try some other VBN . Have you tried Flamings VBN ? I Love so many from Flaming myself . Lol I live in Texas & never purchased Lone Star oils ,thinking I should give this co a try soon. What do you like from LS? Thanks for any recommendations from LS.

I have not had the issue .I think baking longer will solve the problem. I use a nail in mine also before baking to make the hole for the string . The throw should be fine.These beads are very long lasting ,your throw should be fine.😉
