I don't know any.one who sprays the water before they go. Every room/poo spray ect., I've seen or used is a room spray you spray after you go and before you leave the room. 

Why would you spray the water before you go? Not sure that would help with anything to be truthful. 

The whole concept of poo pourri is it's an oil based spray that you spray 3-5 sprays in the toilet, it puts a layer of oil on the water so when u do your business the layer of oil is supposed to keep the scent below. That's been out for years. Otherwise it's just an air freshener and not a "poo spray"

I will check into it. Thank you.

People keep telling me to stop getting medical advice from them but they haven't been wrong yet and my primary has been wrong numerous times.

Nightmare is putting it mildly lol.

It's certainly been a huge challenge ,all because we had a huge water leak ,has caused us a major overhaul in our home . Costly , exhausting & stressful .Thank you for your kind words wishing me  luck .I need some good luck soon .

Kat

Been there with the water leak. Disaster. I literally had a pool under the house. Found the leak but had to drill part of that floor up. Which lead to this and that. Frustrating as ever. Ended up moving. 

Things will get better. Keep strong and pushing forward.

When we get sick we drink collodial silver and we don't catch the flu usually.if you realize you're getting sick and take it in time you won't get the flu.But I've been having hot and cold flashes since I was 39 and I am 47.so sometimes the hot and cold flashes make you feel like you're getting the flu lol I don't have them as much as I used to but man I hate it.

Dr Berg or axe might have a remedy for those flashes.

would think the 141 would be great  for blending as well

It's great mixed just wondered had you tried it. Good luck with the remodel,they can be a nightmare

I just checked. They want more for the wax, taxes (not their fault on taxes lol) and the shipping is cheaper but they are the same price total  as Candle Wic BUT Candle Wic has the free oil lol and I refuse to put my card number since they get hacked and don't worry about it. 

I can't blame you there.  I have taken them off my list of suppliers

I've seen that a lot too.  😕 Crammed with flammable stuff.  😓

I think they are super cute,but all I see in my mind is a huge ball of fire coming from the container 😐  

My last test on palm and palm soy was pretty good. However I revisited them and got nothing lol. 

My test on ky133 went well after I figured out how to get rid of the lumps and bumps,and it seemed to perform well after a few days only. 

When I poured my last batch of candles I poured the left over wax in mini cups. Of course my wax is peanut butter so I scooped it out but they sure have good throw. 

So I know I'm keeping my messy wax but I didn't like palm and not planning on purchasing it. 

Which brought me to CW and their blends.  Idk what magic they put in their blends but they are pretty awesome. 

I feel like I went around in a circle several times to end up back at my original plan..... idk why we keep doing this when we have "the perfect blend for us" already.

I think HL just carries their basic pillar blend, granulated wax, and gel, but it's been a while. I don't think the Country Lane line is comparable to their 125, 141, etc, but certainly I am not a CW rep so I couldn't say for sure. 😁

I don't believe so either. I believe it's their basics.

Love that wax! Makes fantastic tarts, mixes really well. Wish it came in pellets, lol.

The 141 compared to 4625. I believe this is what I'm going with. The 141 blended with 4627 

Ky133 is great and easy but I believe the 141 is better

So, my day job is in the food industry. Here is something interesting I just encountered. We are a co-manufacturer for many Fortune 500 companies. One such company wanted to know the GMO status of a particular product. We received statements from all the ingredients' suppliers and told the customer that 4 ingredients are genetically modified. 2 major ingredients (as in, in the beginning of the ingredient statement, which is in order of predominance) and 2 minor ingredients. They then asked us to send it in to be tested. It tested negative because the proteins break down and get destroyed during the refining process of the ingredients and even further break down during our manufacturing process. I'll go ahead and let you guess how the customer markets this product. And while I find it to be unethical, what they're doing is not illegal, because it is technically free of Genetically Modified Materials. (Much like soy wax). 

You are talking about a company, once you tell a single person soy is g m o their opinions will change. I'm sure it's plenty of companies that do the same thing though.

Pretty sure when the crops went g m o is when the soy wax started running into slight issues and has gotten worse over the years.

People can debate until the cows come home about soy,paraffin or gmo vs non gmo,everyone will always have their opinions.

I agree with you here I really do. I sell soy and soy only and on a few occasions have been approached by a few customers bashing on paraffin and wanting to purchase my candles simply because they were soy based. I very politely try to explain to them the benefits and negatives of BOTH waxes and that it comes down to preference really. Its hilarious to watch their expressions as I defend paraffin while selling them a soy candle lol  

I think for the most part people just want a good scent. Some honestly do not care. I bet they had a puzzled look on their face lololol

As much as this pains me to say @ShellyF I believe Aztec is going to be closer to you. Maybe they will price match CW for the sale 😂😂👍🤔

Does it irritate anyone else when shipping costs as much as the order or more. Then, when you receive the box, about >40% of its contents are packing peanuts that have been dumped in on top of everything. Not some on the bottom, some on the sides, some on top. Just dumped on top to keep things from rattling because the box was so needlessly large.

I ordered molds and my shipping was more than the purchase, they couldve been put in a padded envelope,  only 2 people had the mold that I wanted,or I wouldn't have paid that much. My box came and it was full of paper lol

That's my kind of coconut lol not a vanilla fan but love coconut. 

People that didn't like vanilla loved it. 😂 

The cd6 appears larger to me. Maybe the angle of the pic. 

What kind of container are u planning on using? Will u be adding due? If u add dye it will sometimes make u have to wick up as well as certain fo.

The eco has a better looking flame and melt pool to me.

I use lx wicks but I do not use coconut wax yet......

That tranquil breeze at first I didn't like it,but I waxed anyways and it was a softer scent but man it sure threw like crazy. I can't even give you a description now but it was nice. I'm going to see if they can get the vanilla coconut again or why they stopped because I swear it threw so hard u had to put it out lol.

My bookshelves are everywhere to the ceiling. I don't have room to sort by company. How do you remember what scents you have? This is the only way I can remember and find anything. 

I have a list of what oils I have and amounts

Anyone talked with Trapp to know how she's feeling?

WELL, I had to revisit this post.

I am going to get a few of those cups but different sizes. I want to see if they will rust and such. I have 2 ideas and those cups would be perfect if they don't rust.

I'm really enjoying the Toasted Marshmallows from Indiana Candle Supply.  I have no reference to others for comparison though.  

That just means you will have to get more from different suppliers.😂 the struggle is real

HI,It's a bunch that have been talked about. Try doing a search and they should pop up

Can't remember what scents off-hand. I sort my oils ABC in totes on bookshelves

I have mine in boxes on the bottom of my storage shelves. I keep them by company.

I love their fragrances. I don't have a ton of them but have a few. Can't remember what scents off-hand. I sort my oils ABC in totes on bookshelves. 

They have more that I have never tried but want to.

You wouldn't happen to have a vanilla coconut from them would you? They no longer have it but o m g° and tranquil breeze no longer carried but what a relaxing fo

was checking on scent for the candle and it seems very expensive at 1oz per pound. Any one have a better price than $5.99 per oz. 

Sure try searching the board. It's feeds on just about every candle making supplier out there
