Scented

There isn't an ugly one of hers lol! They are all gorgeous and I can't sit and watch more videos today, but oh I wanna.

WSP has one. Haven't tried it, but the price looks reasonable. http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/StoreCategory.aspx?CatalogID=4&GroupID=3&CategoryID=439&CategoryName=L+de+Lolita+--+Lump+of+Coal

Like I said I wanted to know why. Why not learn it all as one thing? I'm not being spiteful, snide or an ass, so stop trying to read that into it. I want to know why you think that is.

Quote it right. I said it was like me getting blasted for ... (which is what happened when I started soaping.) I'm not "blasting" Beth. I ASKED because I wanted to know. I'm not being snide, snippy or anything otherwise.

Post three on this link maybe ... http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?88553-Jan.-10-Bath-Bomb-CLass-here

No it's not Isbennis, unless she has started selling fragrances and embeds etc. It's http://www.palmbeachcandles.com/ I should have said Palm Beach Candles and Supplies maybe.

Agreed. You can also pour down the side of the mold steady and slow (easy), but not painstakingly slow and fill your mold with the rest of your wax. Typically wax is white, but sometimes there will be a fragrance that will muck up the coloring. Another trick is to take one of those flexible cold compress things that you can freeze and wrap that around your molds just to cool the wax if you see the color starting to migrate. It only takes about 20-30 seconds to work, but if you ever try it, do it on something bigger than a votive.

Actually color in a candle is a beginner's step and part of the learning. Why should this person not be able to learn about coloring and getting consistent shades while also learning to make a good candle? It's all part of the picture. No book I ever read or things I did ever broke it down and said make a plain candle, spend x-amount of time learning to wick it and then you can play with color and then what? Scent? It all adds up to the same picture so why should they take longer to get there? I am curious on the reasoning. Learn at the pace you are comfortable learning at. It is like me making my first soaps and getting blasted because I didn't follow someone else's idea of what a beginner should do ... not add color and use the wrong scent or not make a castille bar etc. As for getting consistent color, yea, you count your drops. At some point, and it may be plus or minus or right at 30 there's a too-much-color factor, but I've had blacks where I've had to use 50 drops to get black and not dark gray. Chips, rule of thumb is one chip will color say 4 lbs. of wax. Yea it colors it, but not the color you might be going for. The differences in the types of colorants -- each, to me have their pluses and minuses. Liquids typically always mix into the wax without leaving behind specks like say a red chip does or a block might do. However, it takes longer with the dyes I have to reach a certain color I might strive for where melting a portion of a block would get it just like that. So take notes on what you end up with in regards to the colors. What type of wax is going to make a difference. What type of colorant is going to make a difference too. Some will tell you that you can add black to red and get a darker red. I've found you can come close to blood red by adding a drop or two of brown, but that's dependent on how many drops of red you use or chips or blocks.

Anyone heard of this place?

OK who's carrying it now? No way am I paying WSP's prices! Anyone try Canwax fragrance oils and have reviews?

All out of mulberry or I'd try that out lol!

Thanks, Judy. The most I can hit him with are infractions, but it is noted in the mod area for those with the power to do it.

Well shame! I was thinking about taking a look at the fragrance and looking for other SW options lol. I have to order from there, but would rather not order 1 8 oz bottle of fragrance lol.

No doubt!

Is that ash on the John Lennon ones or white? Either way, the design is great! Hope Yoko doesn't mind the use of his name lol. It fits.

These look fabulous!

Humongous logs! I love the cuts.

Never tried it. What's it smell like?

Sorry, Pam, but ROFLMAO!

You set your discounts. The public doesn't. The public is merely in this mode of saving a buck and trying to save a buck. Stick with your guns. If you decided to discount than determine what it will be and don't waiver to make a sale. They'll come back and ask you to discount more the next time. If they want it they can buy it. The business shouldn't be to run yourself out of business.

Z! So good to see you back in the stomping ground. Can't wait to see the cut soaps!

There are some pieces in there I would like a closer look at. I agree, it is hard to see everything, but there are some interesting things in there!

Totally agree!

I was told it would have cost our first child for inks for our Brother printer. They can't have our first child because we don't have one lol, but the cost is quite ... well ... up there. Fortunately there's a slight break if you can buy the three packs.

Believe what the NCA says. It is the voice of the industry. They did pay to have waxes tested. The link is on the NCA site with all the testing results outlined.
