  1. I make candles, but I love to look at all of your soap pictures in the gallery. They look awesome!! But they also look like fudge and it makes me want to eat them!! Just thought I'd share because everytime I see a new pic, that's what I think!
  2. Is this a square mason or a regular jelly jar type mason? An Eco is a self trimming wick, so it will curl over once it starts burning and it sometimes looks like it's going to burn crooked, but if it's the right wick for your jar, it catches up. Are you trimming it too short? I trim mine between 1/4-1/2 in and I always have enough to trim for the next burn
  3. I think, if I remember correctly, Paypal charges $20 a month for the virtual terminal, not sure about per transaction fee. Propay charges $59.95 for a year with a small per transaction fee. If you could find out if paypal does a transaction fee, then compare, it might help. I am going to go with Propay though because I also sell Mary Kay and can get it for $29 through them for the first year
  4. So cute!! How does a candle shaped like that burn?
  5. Those are so pretty!! Man I wish I could something like that with Soy!
  6. I don't have a pic but I'll give you a description to hold you over. WHile burning you'll look at the top of your wick and see that it looks like it split in two. On each split part is a small ( smaller than a pea) black ball. That is a mushroom
  7. I get the Honey Coco Mango from Bitter Creek North
  8. Yeah you don't need a wax that will hold a bunch of FO to get an awesome throw. I use EzSoy which can hold 1.5 oz pp, but I don't need that much. I just use 1 oz and the throw rocks!
  9. Honey Coco Mango. It just screams summer and people can't resist it.
  10. I do not like the scent of Men!LMAO But my husband wears Eternity for Men and it's drool worthy
  11. Very nice! Where do you get your packaging?
  12. Here are the tricks I use. Heat to 185 add dye and FO. I only use 1 oz pp. Then wait until the wax gets really slushy before pouring. Then let it sit over night to test the wick and 2 weeks to test the scent throw. Soy wax requires a longer curing time. As for wicks, I can't help there because I use Eco's Good luck!
  13. It looks my ECO maybe even a 10, but I don't know what the others look like. But your burn is great!!
  14. Can this be used in wax? And does it have a musky note to it? I was looking forward to Aquolina's Pink Sugar and was let down when all I could smell was musk. Blech!
  15. They have worked out great for me. I just put all my candles back into the box that the jars came in, put them in my trunk, then set up at their house. I don't take all the candles out of my trunk. Just one of each. Then i tell them about the candles and how to burn them properly then I take orders, go out to the trunk and get what I need. Not too hard and worth the money.
  16. Ooo Grumpy Country Berry Hotcakes is my very favorite and my best seller. I've gone through 4 bottles of it and only 1-2 of the others.
  17. THe rosebud looks to interesting while burning! Thanks for sharing that!
  18. Well that's not what I want to hear! LOL How far apart do you put your wicks? I'm afraid of putting them to close and it tunnelling or too far apart and breaking the glass.
