  1. 2 Brand Spankin' New Presto Pots ( I got them off of EBay! Thanks for who ever left that link) Now I need to order more wax, new FOs and color. I had put together an order and waited half a day and the order form was cleared! :mad: SO Any last minute, you have got to order X recommendations? I have one presto pot for pillars, and one for containers. I have a bunch of containers and just need the stuff to start!
  2. I know everyone has their own favorites, but if you could point me in a direction I would greatly appreciate it. Favorite supplier for already mixed container wax. I looked at peak ( I am happy with their pillar wax, but didn't find any container wax) Thanks ahead of time for the recommendations:grin2:
  3. Post a picture when you figure this out! It should be VERY COOL!!! I want to see
  4. Gosh I love ya lea! Don't count her opinion...She is one of my best friends!
  5. I am still new too. I think ( but am not sure)that is considered a "mottled" look . Read the helpful hints and the search button towards the top of the page will help you look things up. Also to the left, you will find great instructions on what ever it is that you are interested in. Good luck and welcome
  6. Great idea. It all makes scents( ) now !!! I couldn't help the pun! I ordered my containers and will be ordering containter wax, FO and Color! I am so excited. OH I still got to get the 2 presto pots (I figured since I make pillars and will be making containers, get one for each type of wax) SO excited!
  7. I am going to do my research for a little while longer (maybe a month or so, get more used to my candles again) and then I will start to dabble over here, but CAREFULLY:grin2:
  8. HUH 2nd one for repour?? Can't I just make the wax in the one pot hotter for the repour? I just went from excited to confused:o Yea laugh away people, laugh away! (I know I will be laughing at myself after I figure this out!) UGG this and the Soap B&B Stuff my head is swimming!
  9. DH said when you make more candles, I will "let" you buy a presto pot! You have to know DH to know he already knew my response. DO you want me to order one online while we are talking on the phone??? He was laughing the whole time! Stinker that he is...he then said well you need more molds, I said no problem, I will buy some. He said when I get home, we will go to hobby lobby to buy some molds. I said no I want to buy some from on line! He said OK then! He is supportive, but he is a stinker!!!!!!!!!
  10. I know everyone loves the presto pot. BUT should only the more seasoned atrisan use these? How many candles should you make a month for it to warrant this purchase?
  11. Thanks! I will try to keep that in mind! My husband loves the idea that the soaps scare me. He figures I will purchase less supplies, thereby costing our bank account less money!!!
  12. I have been looking at these beautiful b&b creations by you creative people and then I finally decided that maybe, just maybe I should try this. I go and look at the tutorials,,,,,, and there are warnings of wearing face masks, warnings of "VOLCANIC" eruptions and man, did I read the scariest way to make soap or is this normal??? Is there a safer, less scary way to get into bath and body? That or maybe I should just stick to the less scary candles! :undecided
  13. Someone else had posted this beautiful container "Madison Jar" It is at "yes supply company". I tried calling them several times but they never picked up the phone. Who ever posted that picture, man thanks because I think they are the "bees knees" I would love to make candles for my co-workers (the ones I like) for Christmas and these containers would be perfect! So if anyone can tell me how to get these bad boys, I will be eternally greatful!
  14. I went to 2 places and both wanted your business' name and all I wanted was to order some containers
  15. I know that a lot of you are acutal business owners. So you don't have a problem ordering supplies. BUT I am finding it difficult to order supplies. I am wanting to purchase some of the cool things you all speak of but places online are asking for Vendor Ids or Tax IDs. So do any of you have recommendations? I was ready to spend several hundred dollars today and NOTHING!!! UGGGG:mad:
  16. I wonder if cute soaps make the kiddies scrub harder? If so, there should be some clean youngins!
  17. I made the candle and it is posted in the candle gallery if you want to peak!
  18. my first candle in years! YAY I am so proud. It does have those little pin looking thingies. I hope you all like! I think I have started a new addiction. Today vanilla! :D :D :D Lets see if the picture is here~! I know no picture.. I am working on it
  19. Thanks Candle Man! Do you have any recommendations on how to melt the bottom like that? My husband's idea was to take a kife to the bottom. I like your idea better
  20. I live in the Saint Louis Area. I can't find anything in the saint louis area. I think your recommendation is probably best
  21. Hopefully I am asking in the right section of the board. If not please tell me and I will not make the mistake again! Has anyone used Lone Star Candle Supply? I am curious if you all liked what they have to offer? They have a lot of FO's and other interesting things, but I want to make sure I am purchasing from a good place. I do like Peak, but I just want to see what else it out there.
