Congrats!! Can't wait to see it!

After I heard of wet spots, I checked some Yankees I still had around, and yup...wet spots. Never noticed them before until someone was talking about them here.

Hey neighbor! I live in Vernon - my sister lives in Bristol! Welcome to the boards!

Thanks! I was hoping there were others here from CT

Thanks guys!!

I had read somewhere that plastic containers should have a "p5" at the bottom, which would indicate it would be good for storing candles and tarts safely without them losing their smell. I am looking at a Gladware container now, and it has the number "5" inside of a triangle made of arrows. Is this the P5 I should be looking for??

Thanks!!

I think they are having some website difficulties. I went there today and some pages were working, others were not. Must be doing updates or something. I'm gonna try again later.

I'll post what I bought when I get home from work

I ordered from them, and got it super fast. Will be using the oils this weekend, so I will post then how they turned out. I am SO happy with their service.

Wow, there is something there for everything you can imagine. I think that helps with what I was looking for.

Thanks!!!

I was a wax drip too.. sometimes still am.. :rolleyes2 I use soy so I am unable to help you... but I am sure someone will jump on and help you or give you a direction.

While your waiting, you might want to check out this link if you havent already - it is in the helpful links for newbies area http://www.candletech.com/cgi-local/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=Discussions;action=display;num=1074230291

And I also use this often. http://server.com/WebApps/db-view.cgi?id=71493

It might get you going in the right direction.. hope that helps

I did check there, but there are so many different ones listed that it is confusing. If I recall correctly, there were 5 or 6 types just for votives. Being the Drip that I am, that is brain overload. That is why I think recommendation would be cool to lead me on the right path.

When I need soy help, I will track you down :wave:

You can tell from the "Wax Drip" nickname I have that I am new, so I had no idea it mattered as much as it did to be so specific. My apologies.

Genwax 128° F votive/container wax pure paraffin no additives

I hope that is enough information, because I can't think of what else I could provide, other than the fact I don't have wicks. They will be made in 2 inch votive molds....

Thanks again in advance for all the helpful answers I hope to get

Of course I mean they are not poured into a container

And, I said paraffin wax...do I need to be more specific than that??

What do you recommend for a votive wick? I have been doing lots of research, and all the numbers are starting to run together and my brain is now mushy. I am looking for the pretabbed ones for right now. These will be for paraffin wax and the votives will not be in a container.

Oh, and who do you buy from?

Thanks for your help in advance :highfive:

It is very pretty. I love the label too.

:highfive: I would get 2 cabana boys, one for work and one for play

I was wondering how these were made too. Thanks for asking the question first!!

Someone has votives and pins for sale in the classifieds..HTH's

Heres the link

For some reason, my account here doesn't work in the classifieds section yet

Can anyone recommend a good supplier for these with a good price. Looking for the standard 2 ounce size.

Thanks!!

I have used a little bit of Pam or a cooking spray like Pam if you don't have mold release. Just wipe almost all of it out before pouring. I have also used metal molds with nothing used to help the tarts come out, and they slid right out. Just depends on the wax you are using too.

They look awesome. Not being a candle expert and all, I think you did an excellent job for the first time!!

Wow, their prices are really good too. I might have to go and check them out.

Good luck! Sounds like it will smell great!!
