  1. Hi, I am trying to make out a list of FO that I would like to get from Candlesource and I need to cut out a few and was hoping someone could tell me if the following worked good or bad for them. This will either help me to eliminate some or hurt me because that means I will be spending more money.:undecided 1)Plumeria 2)Strawberry Banana 3)Sun Rippened Raspberries 4)Watermelon Thanks for the help!
  2. Your gel candles are the best I have ever seen! Gorgeous!
  3. The candle warmer is 17W. I guess I am confused because I made regular tarts in the tart mold and they melted fine on warmer. Then I made crumbles w/ the same wax and they did not melt completely? I got my warmers at Michaels and Jo Ann's. If the warmers I am using is not strong enough Watts, where can I buy ones that would be higher in Watts? Thanks!
  4. I used mp145 from NG. I made wax crumbles. I put them in a saucer on top of a candle warmer. I have used this wax before as well as the saucer when I made tarts and never noticed a problem. Would the FO have anything to do w/ the problem? Thanks!
  5. I was hoping someone could help me to understand why some tarts melt completly and others have some chunks that will not melt? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
  6. Has anyone tried it? If so, any reviews? Thanks!
  7. Hi, I just emailed them too. I know that Sat and Sun they are away. I don't think they have access to a computer where they are at?? I had no problem when sending an email and I just tried ordering things for pretend and I didn't have any problems. Computers have a mind of their own sometimes!
  8. Hi I was wondring if anyone had reviews on these oils? 1)Banana Split 2)Cherry Clove Chutney 3)Gembertaarts 4)Orange Cantalupe 5)Plumeria 6)Smores 7)Strawberry Banana 8)Sun Rippened Raspberries 9)Sweet Pea Thanks!
  9. Wow! Now I want my very own custom mold! Thanks for sharing!
  10. Very Beautiful! They look so nice on your table!
  11. I am not sure why people are using refresher oil for wickless. Most people use refresher oil for something like potpourri.
  12. Hi, I don't use refresher oil in my wickless or tarts. Nothing happens to the wax. When the scent evaporates I just throw the wax away.
  13. I have never heard about the wax splitting off the tops. If you wait 2-3 hours to do the repour I have never had any problems. Just remember to do the repour 10 degrees hotter than the 1st pour!
  14. Hi! When I am looking for a certain color I use my wood stir stick that I stir my wax w/ and drop a drip of the wax on a white piece of paper or wax paper and wait till it cools and then you will be able to determine if you like that color or not. How long did you wait to do your repour on the votives? I like to give my votives at least 2 to 3 hours before I do a repour. If you didn't wait that long more than likely your wax hadn't settled completely so it sunk in the middle.:smiley2:
  15. I have a little tool box I keep my wicks in. The top of the tool box has a place where I keep my wick tabs. Inside I keep all the wicks I use on a regular basis in plastic bags w/ labels on the bags. I also write on the bottom of the wick tabs what the wick is that way if I drop the bag or get busy and forget which wick I just pulled out, all I have to do is look at the bottom to see what it is. I also store in my tool box wick crimpers and my glue gun, extra sticks and pop sickle sticks w/ the hole in the middle to hold my wicks in place. The other wicks that I don't use on a regular basis I stick in a plastic bin all in baggies labeled as well as labeled on the bottom of the wick tab. HTH!
  16. I think Brookstone Candle has a nice spicy ORC. Candles and supplies (My favorite) has a great ORC and ICS has iced ORC, I haven't tried this one in wax but it smells great OOB!
