    OMG- those are wonderful !!!!!

    depends on which wax I'm using- w/the CBA, if 1oz pp doesn't throw I won't use that FO w/the 464, I almost always use 1.5oz pp (stronger FO's can use 1oz pp)

    I've been using this wax for years. I vary my pour temp, depending on the size of the jar, and the weather/time of year. I always heat to 155. The smaller the jar, the "hotter" my pour temp. Also, in the winter I pour cooler (~110-115) in the summer, I pour ~120-125. I also cover the candles w/a box and a towel. HTH

    this is pretty much what I do as well (except I don't warm my jars, just cover them w/a box to cool)

    yes, they do ship. I pre-ordered a case a couple of weeks ago. they're shipping it out tomorrow.

    I have a customer that wants to carry 1/2oz bttls of my room spray (plastic) These seem to be a bit hard to find. Midwest Bottles has them on a surplus/special. Anyone know of any place else to get them?

    that is one gorgeous candle, girl

    and I have always used the Ecosoya PB, and get great results w/it

    I've been using the advanced for 3 years. as long as I use better quality FO's, I have great results. The people @ CS are awesome!! And I luv their FO's too. I will continue to use this wax for all my colored candles.

    even thought you already ordered, I just had to say that you can't go wrong with anything from them (and glad you got the cran. mar- been a fav for years)

    I have a customer that sent me some Lavender EO from Maui. It's her fav Lavender, and wants some candles that will smell just like it. However- it costs $10 for a 1/16 oz vial, not including shipping. She'd be willing to try a less expensive EO ( perhaps from CamdenGray, or FNWL), or even an FO that's as close as possible. I mostly use CandleScience's Lavender, but am looking for suggestions/opinions in this matter. I use the CBA for all my colored candles, and she'll want them colored. TIA

    I just put a few drops of wax in the bottom of the cup, then "set" the wick assembly, then pour the rest of my wax. Never had a problem doing it that way.

    I remember when I had the same problem w/my floaters- using the same wax as you. Try adding some container wax, to soften them up a little bit.
  15. iammommytwo
    I'll be using either 464 or CBA, not sure which one yet (really all depends on if they're colored) oh- what about wicking? same/up/down?
  16. iammommytwo
    I have a customer that's sending me some Lavender EO to use. What ratio do you use w/your wax ? (i.e- if I'm using 1oz FO pp of wax, how much EO)
  17. iammommytwo
    ty all so much. I appreciate all the replies on this one
  18. iammommytwo
    was just wondering, if there are any particular scents that are less "bothersome" than others.
  19. iammommytwo
    been using this wax for years. I try not to heat to more than 160, add color & FO, and stir and pour at 140
  20. iammommytwo
    oh I am sooo totally with 'ya on CS FO's- they are awesome
  21. iammommytwo
    I totally agree w/this (Oh- and I use the CBA too. You have to find the "right" FO's for it)
  22. iammommytwo
    I agree w/it being a matter of balance. IMHO, first start w/a wax that works best for you, then go from there- to find the best FO's for that wax. HTH
  23. iammommytwo
    just wondering
  24. iammommytwo
    what type of wicks r u using? in what type of wax?
  25. iammommytwo
    Just my personal experience- I have been using the EcoSoya CB Advanced for about 3 years now. It's the only wax I use for colors- beautiful, rich, and nice and creamy. But alot of people don't like it. (I get a great scent throw, when using the right fragrance oils.) But I do agree, that you have to find what works for you. HTH
