  1. Nice set up!LOL I new that you were joking. Thanks for the input. I will have to try your high tech stuff.LOL.
  2. yes, I use a wick centering tool.Should I pull up on the wick while the candle is drying?
  3. Just wanted to know how you center your wicks. My wicks look centered,but, when they harden and I go to lit them, they, not not centered. WHY?
  4. what i am trying to find out is my supplier said that soy wax will hold about 6% of fo and the preblend will hold about 8.5% of fo. I just wanted to know is how much is 8.5% of fo i will use for1 lb.. of pre blend wax.
  5. how much is 8%fo? I read where people add 6%-10% fo? How much is that?

  12. I use 100% soy wax. My tops were smooth before I burned them this am.
  13. I heard that if you add fo at a higher temp. that it will burn off the scent. So, thats why I add fo at 110.
  14. Does pouring temp. have anything to do with burning scent throw? I tested using 1lb.100% soy wax and 1oz. Mid Summers Night fo, melted wax to 170, added fo at 120, and poured at 110 medium zinc core wick. Not much of a scent throw when burned. Then I melted 1 lb. soy wax to 170,added 1oz.fo at 110, poured at 95-100, and small cotton core wicks. now i can smell my ccandles burning! Any advice is welcomed. Thank you.
  15. I have tried some of those scents too. I love her J&J. I have used J&J to make melt and pur soap for my 2year old. Awesome scent.
  16. I used soy container wax,Most of my soy candles look like this.Even the sides of the candle look like this. Thank you
  17. Hello, I made some soy candles last summer, when I went to look at them last night, they look funny looking. The top of them are white crystalized and are not smooth like when I first made them. What did I do wrong with them and what happened? Thank you. Any advice is welcomed. Denise:yay:
