  1. Are you still using J223 then or have you switched?
  2. How about hot under the collar . OK..I' going to hell now :tiptoe:
  3. how long did you wait after pouring to cool them down?
  4. You can find the info at the link below but you better hurry because there are only 33 spots left! I can't wait! http://www.candlesupply.com/BCconvention.htm
  5. Thanks for posting Deb! I will try anything at this point. If I don't get the spots under control, I'm going to have to switch waxes. Does the wax leave any film on your jars when it pulls away?
  6. I am having a HORRIBLE time with wet spots. I warm the jars in the oven and pour at 155. I leave them in the oven to cool and it doesn't help. They come out alright but wet spots start appearing within a couple of hours. they start out as very small spots then they start to vein out (it actually looks like veins!!) until 3/4 of the wax has pulled away from the jar. It looks terrible and I'm not sure what to do to stop it. I even added 2oz/pp of crisco to see if that would help but it only slowed the process a little. Has anyone else had this problem?
  7. Thanks for the info. I figured someone would know.
  8. Are they going out of business or what? I called last year and was told that they were going to get new metro jars in at the beginning of the year but their website doesn't look like it's been updated since August .
  9. I wish I could e-mail them but they're too fast (not complaining). I ordered 10:30 Thursday night and they shipped my order by 1:00 the next day.:highfive: I hope they add it but I'm not expecting it. I will definately remember it next time.:embarasse
  10. I order some FO from Indiana Candle Supply and forgot to add the free Sniffie to my cart. Do you think they will throw one in anyway? Oh well, this is what I ordered... Pink Sugar Type Waterfall Mist Blackberry Sage Brown Sugar Pecan Cinn. Buns Cukes & Melons Sea Blossom Turtle Brownies Very Sexy for her What do you think. I'll be very surprised if I like the Pink Sugar. It doesn't really sound like my kind of scent but I know it is popular and, from reseaching the board, it sounds like ICS has the best.
  11. Don't worry Cindy. The Mods will move it for you when they see it. Your canes look great by the way.
  12. It figures . I just make candles too.
  13. I just subscibed to this. Just wanted to know if I wasted my money. (you would think I would ask this BEFORE I gave them my money :embarasse )
  14. The last update was 88 people already signed up. They can only accommodate 150 so it will probably fill up fast!!! This will be my first convention ever and I can't wait
  15. Thanks for the info. I have never seen anyone post on them so I wandered if they were new or just no good.
  16. Just ran across this site. Has anyone ever used them before? http://shop.bulkoils.ieasysite.com/
  17. I know this is a LONG shot but does anyone make a dupe for Avon's Casbah. they discontinued it a few years ago and it is my Mom's favorite.
  18. I'm using J223 for my containers. I've never tried the zinc for my pillars and I haven't made very many but LX wicks worked good for me. Scented has some amazing pillars in the gallery. She could give you better advice on those.
  19. Crafty1 & scented are WAY more qualified than I am to answer this question but I'm having the most luck with the Zinc 51-32-18 in my 3" dia. jars.
  20. I think they are actually closing... http://www.candletech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42952&highlight=Serendipities
  21. I'm sorry, I need to go back to bed I guess. Somehow I got CD out of cotton core :rolleyes2 and I've never used them:confused: . I know alot of people are against them but so far I like zinc the best. Also, I use this conversion chart if anyone is interested http://www.peteducation.com/category_summary.cfm?cls=0&Cat=1305
  22. what is the diameter of your container? ETA: sorry posted late. If I calculated right, that's about 1/2oz. of FO. The wicking charts I use suggest a CD10 for that diameter.
  23. BCN is now the exclusive distributor for WYW. I think the only way you can order from them directly anymore is if you live in Canada.
