  1. I mean, I don’t agree with that, good businesses treat you like you matter regardless of your order size!
  2. I placed an order on her website recently and it has supposedly shipped. I did email her and received no response.
  3. Has anyone ever used Eco .75 wicks? I have only ever seen them sold as tea light wicks and pre-trimmed very short, but I would love to find them in a 6" length if such a thing is possible. Thank you!
  4. Ok, good to know! I don't have patchouli EO but I just poured a little tester with 1% patchouli FO. Might have been too much, smell-wise, but I can adjust down from there. Just out of curiosity (and since I've read lots of your posts and respect your opinion!), what is your favorite Vanilla for candles? My current favorite is probably Vanilla Bean from Aztec, but I feel like I'm still looking for a Vanilla I really love. I prefer Vanillas that are more authentic to real vanilla beans to the bakery-type vanillas that tend to smell very artificial to my nose. I don't have a problem with gourmand fragrances, but for whatever reason, so many vanillas out there just smell cheap to me. I am happy to pay more for a more authentic-smelling vanilla, if it's out there! If anyone else has thoughts on this, please share!
  5. Thank you both for your replies! TallTayl, do you have any recommendations for which brand's Vanilla or Patch to try? (Also, I agree with you that RE's Lemon Verbena is very nice). Erron, good idea about lowering the percentage. I have it at 8%, I think I'll try 7% next, maybe with a smidge of patch.
  6. Thanks for your response! I love citrus scents, too, that's why I'm still pursuing this years later, haha. Why can't you get Lemon Biscotti anymore?
  7. Hi everybody, I've been making candles for a little over 4 years, and I've still never found a lemon fragrance that I like the smell of while burning. The cold throw will be lovely, and then change while burning. I am wondering if you have had experience with this and if you've found that wicking smaller/differently helps. I use mainly coco/soy blend waxes and ECO, HTP and CD/CDN wicks. I generally try to wick quite conservatively, but I'm starting to notice that I have less of the "icky" smell with SUPER tiny wicks. Tiny as in, so tiny you need to double-wick a 3 inch interior-diameter vessel. Anyone have thoughts or experience with this?
