  1. I'd say that wick is just a tad off. :rolleyes2
  2. Welcome! You've come to the right place for inspiration!:smiley2:
  3. From what I understand, they clog up the wick.
  4. Wow. I've never seen that many backordered at once. Wonder what is going on. ETA: I just reread Lola's post. Now I see what is going on. DUH.
  5. Definitely pre-blends for containers. I have played around with the 1343 for votives and it is fun and you can do lots with it, but I find the scent throw less than desireable for me. But that is JMO.:smiley2:
  6. Those look great! I love the look of soy pillars.
  7. I just remembered that before I started making candles, I shelled out like $20 bucks on one the *small* yankee jars for a "rare" Buttermilk Pancakes scent. (Ebay) I got it and it STUNK and had no throw. I could kick myself for that now.:lipsrseal
  8. I never shake unless my FO has crystalized. And that usually only happens during the colder months.:smiley2:
  9. Maryann, I use a wax that is 98% soy.
  10. 7 pounds? I'll bet it smells divine. I love Carrot Cake.
  11. They are usually really good about getting right back to you if you email. Karen is always helpful, and you may try posting your questions on the small message board that Cierra has. I've never found a better Candy Corn.
  12. I could buy a whole barrel of Caramel FO for that.:rolleyes2
  13. Every soy/par blend I've ever used has never given me smoking issues. Parrafin waxes such as the J's and 4630, however, smoked like crazy. The blends have always given me clean burns with no smoke or soot. I do believe the throw is a little less than with paraffin, but I would rather have just slightly less throw thank a dirty, smokey, sooty candle.
  14. You can't go wrong with getting them at walmart. No shipping.
  15. I stopped ordering from a company because both times I placed an order, I got my stuff in beat up, used boxes. To me, this doesn't set the tone of your business as "professional." I bought something off of someone on ebay a few months ago, and it came in a beat up cereal box. I won't buy from that seller again.:rolleyes2
  16. Here is a simple way to do it. LOL:wink2: http://www.creativegemsmolds.com/store/index.php?cat_id=3&catname='Bakery'&PHPSESSID=99475e7b70c26124a0aecc83df878e07 http://www.soapandcandlemolds.com/moldlarge.asp?prim=14d8-15cinibun
  17. I have spigots now. Don't know how I'd survive without them. LOL
  18. My BL already has some of their halloween stuff out. I went there yesterday and didn't see the pumpkins with the hats yet, but they do have some very large, heavy glass pumpkin jars with lids that would probably make cute candles.
  19. I am going to hint to hubby that I want an Upland for my birthday. I want one soooo bad!
  20. I think those are awesome, Carmen!
