Oh man, I just had these on a piece of paper, but it was getting hard to read and I wasn't using it so I threw it away. I got the recipes from this board. Go to the archives at the bottom of the page and then push search. Type in polysorbate and you should get a variety of recipes. I am so sorry that I don't have them to give to you. But going through the information will be really helpful to you. I hope you are able to find what you need!

Lynn - you are so right about that. I mean it really could become never ending on shapes. Animals, vehicles, different flowers, etc. But, if she did, think of all the fun we would have....LOL. Oh, but then think about all the money we would spend...yikes....

I just order some from Bell and they were excellent to work with. Easy website to navigate and lots of colors to choose from. I would love from them to get even more shapes.

Well I was going to suggest wicking up, but you said that you have tried that. I will always have a full melt burn in my containers using 1945 and zinc wicks (different sizes, depending on the container) by 3 or 3 1/2 hours on the first burn. I guess if you aren't having any problems with with smoking or high flames, then you are probably alright : ) I think all those rules are pretty general anyway.

Well, I am personally not a big Moonlight Path fan, but I agree it is a good strong scent and if you like the smell you will be happy with it. The others I have not tried, so can't be much of a help there.

Yep, scents like that just tick my kids off. I have to be careful about burning Peak's Cinnamon Buns because everyone thinks I am baking. Sure smells good tho : )

Yep it is true, ladies and gentlemen prepare to empty thy wallets... LOL. Thanks for the welcome back Breanna : )

Wow, went on the PEAKS to order my FO's and saw this new one. Anybody try it. I apologize in advance if this has been talked about. I was out of town for awhile and missed the board for about a week. Can't wait to try it : )

We had a propane on demand water heater in the house we lived in before and I swear that it caused things to change color. I have heard people complain that sometimes candles in containers can cause black on their white walls, but that is just where the candle is. My GF only burns tarts because of this. However, I dont' think burning candles could affect the inside of the frig or the inside of the cupboards. I could be wrong tho....just thinking outload.

LOL Sherie, I think I am going to have to remember that one. Dang, why did he feel that you would even be interested in what he had to say....what a goofball.

Peaks has some great strong scents that kick in paraffin at one oz. In 4794, all peaks rock no matter the scent, I have found in container wax some scents respond a bit differently. That isn't just peak scents all scents, so I am betting it has something to do with the wax or the way I pour or something. The other day we nephews had a black canyon meltie going, mind you just one square from a clamshell. They blew it out and said whoa that is too strong. I think they are nuts me like my FO's like I like my men, strong....LOL. But some nose rockers are from Peaks: Blueberry Muffin Cinnamon Buns Asian Sandalwood Grape Cabernet Hazelnut Coffee Amish Harvest Sweet Pumpkin Spice Lemon Pound Cake White Tea & Ginger There are more I am sure, but these are very dependable in containers.

Wow those are very cool! I like the color combo too, but I think it is cool how you keep trying new things and such. Keep up the good work : )

I really like those shelves. They are big enough for a lot of product, but it won't look crowded. Me wants some.....LOL

that is really creative. Glad you waited to burn it so you could post it!

That is so cool and the price sounds good. With your labels all figured out (which I love BTW) you are set to go. That is exciting news

I really like the Sweet Pumpkin Spice from Peaks. This is not my favorite scent in general, but it is a great Fall smell. This one has had an awesome hot throw in both J223 and 1945 for containers and OK6228 and IGI 4794 in tarts and votives.

Anybody sharpen there trimmers. I can definatley tell the difference between my old one and the new one I just opened. Before I send my DH out to do it on his own (that just plain scares me...LOL....his a bit like Tim "the toolman" Taylor), anybody have some info on this. This are the nice ones the Carmen cooped.

Thanks for the pic Mtngrl, I have always wondered that. I wasn't getting the right visual until the pic. Pillars is something I would like to do someday!

Oh goodie another road trip...watch out Sherie : )

Miss Julie, just so-so, my foot-foot, those are so beautiful, unique and creative. Really an inspiration! Yeah I am gushing, anyone who doesn't like it can bite me : )

I am not the old ball and didn't like sugar plum berries as much as others, but the Clove is nice a strong and smells just like the real thing in my opinion. So if you like Clove scent, you will like peaks. Has a great hot throw in both J223 and IGI 1945.

Wow a great way to play during the long Alaskan winters....Good to see you back on the boards. I think you got a steal on all that stuff, lots of fun : )

I love that idea! Looks great : )

You know maybe it would be a good idea to figure out what part of the business takes a lot of time, but doesn't yield the profit. Maybe cutting down on the craft fairs or farmer's market or maybe not have the website, or cancel your wholesale accounts. I think I would do what it takes to feel better about things. I am always getting "why don't you have a website" or "why don't you put your stuff in this store or that store or market in this direction". Someone just bought some candles from me and said well I want something in Coconut, just coconut and how about some peppermint. Of course the first thing I thought of is sure I will get some of those for you. Then I thought, no way, I don't have too if I don't want to. I am in control, but sometimes I just forget...LOL. Good Luck to you. Sounds like you have a great business, maybe too great : )

OUCH!!!! I have always been too chicken to try any of the leg wax
