Thank You....they seem so easy and inexpensive..I'm going to give them a try...
-
So I seen these air freshener blanks on bittercreek and they say you can paint them using diluted food coloring or stamp them then add your fragrance..seems fun..has anyone used these? And do them come out nice

Lumberjack from rustic escentuals and bayberry black forest from re is kind of manly ..I love that one
-
Lol ...that's so funny
-
I value all opinions and information... Right now I am totally dedicated in finding great scents and I'm just going to do the best I can with the other issues lol..In march will be 1 year for making candles and I definitely feel more relaxed about it ..😊

I also buy from candle chem , I live about 25 minutes from there..I have only tried 464 wax for a few reasons, shipping prices are so high is one of the reasons ..And for some reason I'm just in love with 464 ..a couple of things that helps me the most with tops is that i pour down my wick, i wrap the jars in felt, i put fat popsicle sticks on top and cover the jars with a box (learned all this on this website) ..so if i make 4 candles 1 might have wet spots but all my tops are smooth..and for a great hot throw if the fo i used doesn't throw that strong at 8% i just move on to another fo ..hope this helps

I have tried wassail from candle science, it was ok ...then i tried spicy apples and peaches, which i thought would be like cinnamon apple but its more than that ..it has mulled spices in it and you can really smell it and it has a good ht in 464

Does the sunflower have a sweet smell?
-
Thanks ..I have tried the bamboo sugarcane by itself , smells really good, but maybe a stand alone sugar with out other scents. I seen somewhere there is a simple sugar... The reviews weren't the best on it though .. I might try it...
-
Yes, .it will be hard to wait to burn it lol but will be better for scent throw
-
Maybe its the essential oils, try fragrance oils ..and try to cure them for a week or 2...

This year my son planted sunflowers and for the first time I actually smelled one. It smelled soo soo good. To me it smelled like a little green then a very light floral ( which i don't care for florals) but this was so subtle and then this sweet sticky almost dewy like smell , it was so nice. So i ordered sunflower fo from FC and it almost smells like it , but its missing that sweet scent. Does anyone know of a fo that smells dewy sweet w/o being a bakery sweet I could add to it or an actual sunflower fo that is more what I'm looking for...Thanks

Welcome back ...This site is awesome.

Oh good, I would hate to have our dinner tasting like pine lol....Thanks
-
I was looking at dough ornament recipes and i would like to scent them with fragrance oils, but a lot of recipes calls for essential oils. Can i make them with fo's instead? ..And i know you can bake or air dry them, if i did bake them would the oven forever smell like fo?
-
So I got the glad glistening snow from indigo, and I have to say it comes pretty darn close to the real thing. It smells refreshing and crisp. I like it , but this is all oob , so will post again in a couple of weeks after i burn it . Hope it has a good ht ..

Werewolf at indigo...I think I'm going to order this one, sounds like it will smell good.
-
I was looking on candle supplies by farmhouse and they have stuffed bears, it says for wax dipping or you can inject them (interesting) . Has anyone injected a bear? Does the oil seep out?
-
At natures garden there is vamp vogue and toxic trance. And at bittercreek candle supply there is goth absinthe...Haven't tried these though ..if you do can you let us know what you think of them

To glitter or not to glitter??
Karen Ov replied to burnsv1's topic in General Candle Making Discussions
Mica powder goes a long way, but you can put in as much as you want because there is no wick. After your melts are have hardened you can hit the tops with a heat gun just a bit and add glitter then. -
I can't wait to smell the fo I ordered, its glistening snow glad type, I absolutely love that scent . I should get it in monday or tuesday.
-
Ok , just making sure
-
So I ordered from indigo yesterday and today I got an email from aromastorm saying my packaged is shipped, so I looked up aromastorm and its a different website..Are they the same place?
-
I ended up ordering it from indigo.I have never ordered from them before..When i get it, I will post my opinion if it smells like glade ..I hope so ..
