  1. Wow! I got curious and visited D.L. & Co.'s site. They play beautiful music while you browse around. Check out the info on their packaging... imported ribbon and tissue??? Holy moly! www.dlcompany.com Very elegant though....
  2. Thanks for the response, ah-soy! After researching a bit more, turns out their facility in So Cal doesn't even carry the CB30. Probably because of what you stated! So I found a supplier of my current wax in Reno with decent pricing and shipping.
  3. Hi all! Wow, haven't posted here in probably over a year or more! I'm getting back into the swing of things, and noticed price increases in both wax AND shipping! Stumbled upon Swan's, which is in my state at least, so shipping would be much better. My question is, though, I presently use IGI4630 (started with the J223), and was curious if the CB30 was similiar. Before I order some to start testing, thought I'd get some feedback? Thanks all!
  4. Wow - your rustics are absolutely stunning! You are quite an inspiration - I've only attempted the layers a few times, but they sure didn't turn out like that! Love the color combo too!
  5. Oh wow, those are beautiful! I'm thinking of trying the color blocks... the liquid is SO messy (or maybe it's just me!), and the dropper tops can get so yucky!
  6. Wow - I would love to get those as a gift! Great job!
  7. I think they're lovely... reminds me of one of the Pier 1 candles I bought awhile back - very pretty!! Bet yours burn better and smell better, too!
  8. Those are SO pretty! I love your presentation:yay:
  9. Those will DEFINATELY sell! Great job!
  10. I love your tag line too! Great job!
  11. Forgive me if this is a silly question, but do you need a warning/caution blurb for incense? I could not find anything while searching, only candle ones...
  12. I did votives until I got comfortable with all the "stuff" of candlemaking... it grew from there (just look at my kitchen...)(and dining room...)(and my office, and under my bed, and in the closet...)
  13. Those turned out absolutely beautiful!
  14. Hey, Anna, let me know how that works for ya. I've had nothing but trouble with my 16 oz jars using J223 and 2 51 zincs. They burn fine till about half way down, then turn to crap with all the black stuff. Can't use pastel colors, as they really look bad. Dark colors hide it... I've shelved them for now, as I can't find anything that works, and I sorta gave up!
  15. Oh, man, that is SOOOO pretty - I LOVE the color!
  16. That is one wonderful looking candle!!
  17. Very clever - (do pot heads spend money on other stuff??LOL) Let me know if you find a good one! (FO, not pot head...) Thanks everyone for the tips - glad I checked in with you all!:highfive:
  18. Heather, that story is hilarious... Do you like the smell of the CandleChem MJ? I have two different MJ FO's, but haven't found one that is quite "right". (okay, disclaimer here... I remember the smell from WAY back, when my brother smoked pot in his room... allegedly... ) I'm going to try to convince this gal to go with a lavender/chamomile blend and call it "cat nap" instead... we'll see!
  19. Coooooooooooooooooooooooool!
  20. Oh my gosh, that would be a disaster... very good point! (I'm obviously not a cat person!) I've sent an e-mail to the gal with that info, as she has always had cats! Think I may side step that one! Thanks!
  21. Okay, got a request from someone who sells cat toys, etc.... she thought it would be cool to have a "catnip" scented candle they can sell with their other kitty stuff! Anyone know what catnip smells like, and what FO I could use (or mix) to get close? She says it's a minty smell.... Any ideas???
  22. Very pretty chunks - you did a real nice job!
