  1. Hey hey. I've been doing pillars my whole 'career' and I just discovered seamless molds. Now the things is, they have no base! All my other metal molds have bases and they stand up straight and are quite happy. I'm having trouble figuring out how to keep them upright? Sorry if this is a noobish question, but is making me crazy.
  2. I use one color and one f/o at a time and just make more than one candle with it. I make pillars only right now so I'll set up three or four molds, melt, mix, sniff (ahhh) and pour in all four. I'm not picky about how much goes in each one as long as I use all the wax I have ready. When they're cool I do the next layer on each one. It is pretty satisfying when I'm done, turning over four molds and producing four matching (but different sized/shaped) layered pillars. I've also started doing the fancy slanted layers, where you tilt the mold. That's dangerous, I found. The hard way.
  3. Woooo a two page order from Peak. I just dropped a -lot- of money. *crosses fingers* Hope I still have the skills.
  4. So I finally have the cash and space to get back into the game... I go to Peak (I am a loyal customer, to be sure). Okay they're out of pretty much all the things I want. (Wax mostly, ETA 29th). This was Sunday. Okay no problem. Woot today's the 29th! Now it says the 30th. Oh the pain...
