We are making "Holiday/Christmas" themed wax melts now. I mixed orange and berry scents together along with some mulled cider "spice". I am trying to name this new scent....any ideas?

We are using 50% soy and 50% paraffin from JoAnn's. I will try the container wax idea out.

So we are making wax tarts and they are sinking in the middle (picture attached). I was wondering if we reheated them to melt, would they even out? We were wondering if we reheat them then they would the scent burn off?

Thanks for all the info! I haven't been on in a few days, sorry for the late response. I probably missed the Cierra sale but I will check in on their website.

We live close to Louisville, Ky on the Indiana side. I checked the list of suppliers and no one is close. We chose FB mainly because we got free shipping after we spent $100. Indiana Candles did not offer anything like that and I sent 2 or 3 emails to Virginia and never got a reply. FB replied quickly, were very responsive and professional, so we went with them. That doesn't mean we won't try others. We are doing shapes, all paraffin seems to "sink" in the middle so adding soy seems to help with that. We are using a roughly 2/3 soy to 1/3 paraffin.

UPDATE: We made our first purchase from Fragrance Buddy. We are excited and making wax melts. Now I am trying to source wax. We've been buying locally from our Joann, had some good luck with coupons to get decent prices. I was wondering where is another place to source wax that won't break the bank. We are making wax melts, not candles with wicks.

Thanks so much! I appreciate your kind words.

Thanks for the reply Belinda. We went with FB. I liked that they offered free shipping on $100 order. Even though we spent well past that.

We are new to this, but we are making wax melts for our craft booth. We've made some really nice ones so far with stuff you can get locally from Hobby Lobby and Joanns. We are using a mix of soy and parafin wax. Now we are going to make our first purchase of fragrances from a company. I think I am going to use either Fragrance Buddy or Virginia Candle. Does anyone have any advice on these 2 companies. Which fragrance from them are really good, and maybe even more importantly what fragrances are not good Thanks in advance for any advice you have...

Thank you so much for the response. We tried our first batch of melts/tarts and waited 24 hours. It's a vanilla, and it is soft but definitely present.

Hi folks, My husband and I are making wax melts for local craft shows. The most daunting part so far is buying good strong fragrances for our wax metls. Can anyone suggest a good place to buy? And what ratio of wax to fragrance? Looking forward to reading your responses...
