  1. 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 .
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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 .
  5. 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 .
  6. 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
  7. 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.
  8. Better Late then Never !!! Welcome to Craft server each & everyone of you .
  9. A Big Hello from South ,Texas! I admire your love for animals ,the world needs more like you 😉 Blessings ,Kat
  10. 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 .
  11. 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 .😉
  12. 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 !
  13. Looking for some great finds for the Lone Starv .99 sample sale ?Thank you in advance ! Kat
  14. 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
  15. Yes aren't these beads Wonderful !I love the pp4f beads & performance is great . Lol I actually get tired of the scent before it loses its scent . Absolutely the best I have ever used ,price is great as well +Free shipping is a added bonus 😀
  16. I really love your pumpkin mold ,us this silicone ? I want one lol..
  17. 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 . 😉
  18. 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.
  19. Great discount on 21pumpkin scented oils WSP .I just had to enable this sale for sure .I see some great pumpkin oils here for Fall , definitely will get on this one The 35% is a great discount !!!😀 Kat
  20. I sell mine for 5 also ,with the exception if 2 very large ones ,I get 7-8 .
  21. 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.😉
  22. I have not heard of this scent ,however it sounds great for Fall. Hope you find it soon 😉
  23. Another New scent Pear custard Pudding ,Aztec $12 a Lb.Sounds really yummy for Fall . Sorry to be such a enabler ,just sounds so good for the fall season .
  24. Yes lmk what others you like 😉 I see so many already I want to try ,looking for a strong Pomegranite if you have a recommendation on this scent . I have Pomegranite in my BC cart . Northwoids Christmas sounds great too.
