Thank you

Does anyone make or know how to make the cooling bandanas? We have a charity car show in a couple of weeks and the guy that usually sells these doesn't do it anymore.

Thank you Amieelynne

I haven't found them yet! whats there addy?

Thanks everyone for all the wonderfull comments. Right now I'm only doing a few local craft shows a year. I just started doing this part time almost a year ago, I work a full time job too. I haven't thought much about retail or wholesale. They don't seem to sell to well so far except around Christmas time.

It's hard to tell by the photo, but all the colors of the rainbow are there. Thank you Bruce

Good job Very pretty

Thank you Bruce....I didn't even think about that. I switched to dyes about a month ago but am still using the same wax so there is still pigments in it and I'm sure I did stir up the wax (habit now). I did two dips of clear between the colors because my customer didn't want the white between the colors. If I have time tonight I'll try it both ways and post pics. Thank You

even closer

I'm trying to make a rainbow candle for a customer. When I try to make orange, or purple it looks good when I dip it but when I carve you can see where I dipped it in yellow/red to make the orange. I dipped in yellow/water bath, then in red/water. Should I not dip it in the water before dipping in between the colors? It doesn't look as bad in the photo as it does for real!

Wow!!

pics from the show......this was after the show, forgot to take one befor.....not that it looked much different!

Beautiful weather....Show Sucked! I did this show in December (my first show) and made 7 1/2x booth fee. I didn't think I would make as much this time....I know people were buying christmas gifts in December, but I thought I would at least make a little! I only sold three candles (no bunnies) and four mushrooms and two of the candles I sold I didn't even have with me I have to make them! That was the only good thing about the show......A couple remembered me from the Christmas show and came looking for me, I didn't have what they wanted with me (light houses) so they ordered them. I think the only one who did good in the show was the lady across from me selling jewelry (she made a killing) but even most of her sales were returning customers that came looking for her, half of them were picking up special orders. Anyone else having luck with small craft shows this time of year?

I use the 4611 also and I like it, if you have a chance to get it cheap I would. I wish I could find some cheap and close....hate those shipping charges!

Thank you Sherie, I should have ordered more samples when I ordered the wax. Up until now the cut & carves the only ones I've made. I always pick the hard ones to start with...don't ask me why??? LOL:D

Right now all I have is the 24 & 45 ply flat braid, and the 3/0 I use for cut & carved candles. I need to order more samples!

Top 1 1/4" Middle 1 1/2" bottom 1 3/4" I didn't use heat gun, but did keep poking in relief holes.

Waterfall?.....Blue Lava? LOL

I used a 24 ply flat braid....any suggestions on what I should use? Wonderfull cold throw...NO hot throw. I used 2oz fo in 1 1/2lbs should I use less fo? This was also my first scented candle. TIA

Thats what I got when I tried it too. Never did get it to work. I have about 8lbs of bronzy brown . Let me know if you figure it out. Good Luck
