Does anyone make unscented beads? I need to make some pink ribbon ornies for a breast cancer survivor party but some of the ladies can't have scented ones. I have no idea if or how to do this:laugh2:
-
C & S Macintosh Apple is the best. Smells just like a whole bushel full of fresh picked apples.
-
I had only used the beads from BCN then I was ordering from someone else & they were not as good as the BC ones. I have found the strongest & longest lasting scent to be Spiced Cranberry from BCN. It lasted for over a year in my Mom's car. If you smoke in a vehicle they don't last long at all.

10 days??!! I wouldn't be using them either. That's ridiculus.
-
:laugh2:Those are not as bad as you think!!! I have a lot of the cutters that don't lay flat either. I use scissors after they are cool to cut off any parts that have spread out & the little nobbies. Great to do while watching TV. I like mine to look bumpy so I don't cook them as long as the BC instructions say. As for colors, are you using liquid dye? Hold them up to a window, the dark ones look cool!! Try using a little less dye to get brighter , lighter colors. Hope this helps you some!!

Well crap!! :angry2:i have a sample here to try. Guess I'll just make tarts for me:sad2:

Physical consequences of making candles

Definately try the braces at night. They help alot. I have had both Ct surgeries & now I have tennis elbow!! The braces do help with swelling at night. When I wear them my hand is not all swollen & stiff in the morning. Stretching exercises would help as well. -
Good to know!!!

Have you tested Candlewic waxes?
CathyinME replied to Brooke's topic in General Candle Making Discussions
I have a case of their CI123 container I'm going to test. I've done 2 jar tests & both went well good cold & hot throw. I use it for my tlights & it works great. -
Can't believe they'd last that long either. If so guess I'll give up making them:)

Very nice! I was going to get some of the molds from Van Yulay too but didn't. Yours looks great without buying the molds!! -
:laugh2:LMAO wow never been asked or seen anyone do that!!! I get asked alot if I make them all myself-yeah wanna see my messy house!! Candles everywhere.
-
WOW:shocked2: wish I could charge what they charge for them. $27 for a 16 oz not around here:laugh2: Like the silhouette ones but I don't like the barbed wire ones.

Make sure you let us know if it is a good deal. I was looking into this the other day. Good to have someone who knows about insurance. my Dad was an adjuster but he's gone so I can't get his advice anymore.
