  1. Made a batch of this the other night and it is awesome! Light and fluffy! Goes on Greasy but sinks in nicely in about 5 minutes. Here are my subs:

    6 oz. Golden Shea Butter(painya)

    6 oz. Mango Butter

    4 oz. Lemon Extract Butter

    5 oz. oil

    2oz jojoba oil

    1oz grapeseed oil

    1oz meadowfoam-shea oil

    1oz AKO

    2 tsp. cornstarch

    I am trying another batch tonight with oils that are supposed to be good for Psoriasis.:D

  2. I just got pumpin souffle and apples and maple bourbon, the pumpkin souffle rocks, the apples n maple bourbon is not throwing at all.

    I use Gb415, and no hot throw at all, I am dissapointed because OOB this scent smelled good.

    Also others have used this FO and got great results in soy, maybe the FO changed.

    Also you get a free sample with order, I did not get my free sample.

    I am disappointed.

    They have changed their website where you choose your free sample from a drop down menu. Did you do that when you placed your order?

  3. I use CB135 and they are one of my main suppliers for fragrances. If you do a search you will find all of my recommendations. I am too lazy right now to look them up! LOL!

    You will not be disappointed. As everyone has said above, customer service and products are top notch. Their Palm waxes are also very addictive!:shocked2:

  4. That is so pretty. Too pretty I wouldn't want to burn it just decorate my house!

    Do you make these and sell them?

    This is my firs 6X6, I am not sure anyone would want to pay the price tag on this size right now. 5lbs of wax!:rolleyes2

  5. That's a beautiful candle! Did you get the palm from CS? I've yet to venture into that realm.

    Thanks. Yes I use CS Palm wax....is there any other? LOL!:rolleyes2 And the CSN wicks are from CS...specially designed for the palm wax.

  6. I buy the soy based Regular. Have never bothered with the Ultimate Grade.

    Here are more suggestions:

    Apples n Oak

    Blue Denim

    Coconut Calypso

    The jingle bell java and hinoki are on my list to try.

  7. Well we sell Tins for weddings. Our label is on the side so they are able to personalize a top label with their wedding info...... just a thought.

    AND you need to have a low price point..... 4 oz tins work best.

    I am also marketing toward weddings. I have just finished favors, pillars, etc. for my nephews wedding. I hope to get some biz from it!

    I did palm votives in the votive glass and put a clear custom label on. I ordered the semi custom warning labels from Peaks for the bottom with my website address & phone #.

  8. I am waiting for a quote right now, I will let you know what it is. I had called another place last summer (I think it was through Auto Owners, but not positive) and they had quoted me about $380/per year.

    I am in NC and State Farm would not write a policy for me here. I checked there first because that is where all our insurance is. I went with Auto-owners, about $360.00 a year also.

  9. Wax~CB135:

    Blueberry Cobbler 1 oz.

    Clean Cotton 1 oz.~Great!

    Apples and Maple Bourbon 1 oz.~Great!

    Banana Nut Bread 1 oz.~The best I have found. Strong and true.

    Hansel and Gretels House 1 oz.

    Hazelnut Coffee 1 oz.

    Honeydew Melon 1 oz.

  10. Looks great! The same thing happened to me with one of my tests. The white is where the wax and mold were not hot enough. It also needs to cool extremely slow. I cover mine with a thick towel. The wax needs to be poured at 200 degrees into a heated mold. This type of palm wax loves heat! LOL!
