LOL..eww..bet they don't taste like one..but that smell must be awsome..cucumber cantelope..yum

1/2# MP soap clear silk petals FO (1 1/2tsp) cosmetic grade glitter(optional) melt soap in pyrex cup in microwave ..do not boil..stirring every 15 seconds until melted..add FO and glitter..dip petal with tweezers and lay on waxed paper on a cookie sheet to dry..you can throw them in the freezer for like 5 minutes if you are impatient like me ..when dry package right away so they don't sweat..I got 148 petals out of 1/2 pound of soap..but I really coated the petals..I used a few and was able to wash my hands with the same petal 3x's. ..not recommened..they are supposed to be for single use. and yes you might have to reheat the soap a bit..just don't let it boil..and if you see lots of bubbles you can spritz the petal with alcohol. I love making these..you can get get some cute ones already boxed with ribbon from FIB..and just put them back in the box and add your label or hang tag after they are done...I think they have pink, red and white.

Thanks..and I love the packaging you got there. the mentholy crystals would give it a cool feeling right? what else do they do?

Those are to cute!

I like it..wouldn't change a thing.

I Like! very pretty vibrant color and texture

I totally agree with that statement.. I have done the same thing..light scents I cure..strong kick butt ones like red current I do not and they throw fine..actually if they did cure they would probably be so strong it would be sickening..this was with plain 415 soy..I use a 50/50 blend now..and I do not seem to have to cure any.

Nope..his response was he did not see them ..WHAT..how could you not..he had to REACH over them to get to my mail box. yes it says free online..I am going to call them MONDAY.

espresso cups are small with straight sides right? how about using the dixie cups they make a bit wider votive that might fit snug in there.

I have a biz account with the usps..and last time it tried to charge me..so I was not going to try that again..we had a sub mailman(again..I swear our regular guy has only worked 1/2 the summer so far).. and the boxes were right in front of the mailbox..could not have missed them..and he took THE SMALL BOX? so why did he not take the others..oh well..next time I am going to try the free pickup again..and if it trys to charge me ..I am making a phone call. But hey they are now in the mail.

That is great idea!..I think they are pretty neat looking. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Oh those are so neat! how do you package them?

Those look great..kinda a marble looking.

I am curious as well..I think with B&B you use 1/3 the amount you would use for FO..wonder if it would be the same with candles?

Red Current Midsummers Night Country Garden Patchouli Sandalwood Capuccino Hazelnut Cabernet Vanilla (with hazelnut, velvet etc..there are lots of vanillas) Gingerbread Mac Apple Wine & Roses(equal parts each) Amber Romance Cedar Fireside Med fig Ginger Passion Red Clove StormWatch(makes me think of lightening and red fire?..ok..maybe I am weird) nag Champa Black Cherry Caramel apple Chai Tea Frankincense & myrrh Pomegranate Sunflower Twigs & berries Rose ok..I am out of ideas..I may have repeated some other said..but I could not remember eveything when I was typing.

Yummy! Good job.. I so love to eat those..but I personally do not like the cinnamon bun scent..love plain strong cinnamon but not with the bun?..bet the cinnamon rasin smells good.

Looks good enough to eat..probably would not taste good..but it sure does look good. I still have yet to try a bakery anything..tried to whip some wax for on top my cappuccino ones..did not come out so good.

Yep burn them till they are gone..you have no idea what will happen when it gets to the bottom 1/2 inch and people don't stop..they burn sometimes till it goes out itself..need to make sure it does not catch fire, explode etc...and the wick goes out on it's own.

Here maybe this will help. http://www.mywiseowl.com/articles/Lilac_(color)

You know..all us candle makers should invest in the BIG box of crayolas..lol

Awsome colors BTW.. those would be great around easter..egg shape..and pastels

Those are great to..I like the chunks..pretty!

Wow..I like that mold to..do you mind sharing where you got it?

I do as well for the same reason as above..just in case someone is allgeric.

it is a medium to dark purple.
