  1. Cucumber Melon is awesome!! I've tried many others but hers is so good-doesn't smell too cukey, which is what I like. I also love the Butterfly Garden.
  2. Well, good question!! You could always do layers, cranberry,orange,red,yellow. Or go with a cranberry color. Sometimes it's hard to pick one color when they have so many different scents in them!!
  3. Try the RRD's. They work best with the Palm waxes.
  4. Hi! I don't use soy wax but I wanted to say WELCOME to CT & the wonderful world of candle making! Have fun!!
  5. I agree with Margarita, keep test burning 3-4 hrs at a time til you burn the whole candle that way you can see how it does all the way down. definately wick down on the jar.
  6. How about Sedona Sunset. Ever been in Sedona when the sun is setting? The rocks get beautiful colors in them! I fell in love with Sedona, I want to move there!!
  7. Glad it's not just me! My family thinks I'm crazy enough as it is:laugh2:
  8. I get some of mine from C&S, most of them are good. Just like all suppliers some scents are strong & some are not. C&S has a Seashore scent that I love, it's not a strong scent but it's a really clean crisp scent. I use their Mac Apple, winter Candy Apple, Sunflower, these are just some of theirs that are good & strong. You can PM me if you want to know the ones I use from them that are good.
  9. I've been testing the palm waxes & I think the throw is good on most scents. I don't mix it.
  10. I seem to be having good luck with the hex jars. I make sure I poke relief holes in them & that seems to be helping. I hope I don't have to wait 3 yrs. to be able to sell these!!
  11. at something & thought WOW that would make an awesome candle??!! I was watching one of my soaps last night & two people were sitting at a table with these cups in front of them & the design was cool on the glasses, I thought, hey I'm gonna have to try that on some pillars! I just thought it was funny to think that! Guess I'm off to do some playing around:p
  12. Sheila, you using the palm container from Candlewic? I'm testing this right now in 9oz hex jars & the air pockets I get are usually on the top. Still testing these. Are you getting pockets all the way down the jar?
  13. I've had blowouts before on testers, especially palm pillars & just wicked down & that usually takes care of it.
  14. I wait at least 24 hrs before doing test burns for the wicks, longer to test the scents!
  15. That's beautiful! One more new thing to add to my to try list!!
  16. What are you using for pictures? Are they decals? Never done any of the hurricanes but I might have to give them a try, got tons of ideas running thru my brain right now!!
  17. That came out really good! I may have to put those on my to try list!!
  18. I make my own using graphics that match my website! I find it easier to do it myself so if I want to change something I can do it myself.
  19. http://www.thecandlemakersstore.com will ship small quantity USPS
  20. This is what they have on the site Carribean Holiday - A very powerful mountain berry impacted with hints of raspberry, blackberry, strawberry with a touch of vanilla. I smell alot of grape in it!
  21. i use wick stickums & I take a skewer broken in two with rubber bands on the ends, pull wick up thru the middle of sticks & tighten. Sometimes after you pour you have to tighten it more. HTH PM me if you have a ?'s!!
  22. I LOVE JS black raspberry vanilla, doesn't smell like perfume to me either.
  23. Most of the suppliers list if they are trademarked or not. Go back & check their site. Sorry terrible at renaming!
