I wouldn't be burning them with all that material on them. I would think you would know better.

Nah.... I don't know any better... I'm just a big DUMMIE, not a lick of sence!

Sure makes you feel good after a night like that, i bet. Congrats

My first craft show was not great for me or anyone else. It was a school affair with about 60 vendors and no one had a great day except the balloon yo-yo guy. 100's of peeps went through but I'd guess not more than 10 of us made or booth fee ($40). I doubled mine but that's not saying anything. Here's some pics though

I had a bad day a the craft show that i was at too. The other vendors didn't fair as well either. Alot of people stopped to look and comment on how nice the candles smelled and liked the display......... Waste of a day. I do better selling thru friends and where my daaughter works. I wonder how candle selling on Ebay is???

I think they are cute. I started making one but never filled it with wax...glad you posted so maybe I'll finish mine. Ginger

They really look nice with the lights down low. They emit a nice glow.

I havent been posting on here alot, just observing mostly, but I have burned tons and tons of candles with the fabric tied around it and never had a problem. To each there own however. Good job on them they look really nice, I love the prim/country look.

Hey there, thanks so much for the positive feedback.

Very cute..

Also I think she is just burning them like this to show us.

Thank you,

I wouldn't be burning them with all that material on them. I would think you would know better.

I did it just to post the photos of the finished product. Wish they were fire retardent.

I really like them!! Good job!!!

Thanks for the feedback, and the help. My husband just thinks that I am making a mess. He is not to far from the truth....LOL

Here are the grubby jars with the lights off with only the candle light showing thru the jars. I made my own lables staining them in tea solution, but am not very good when it comes to the script. Let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.

Wow, i think i would cancel my order, at least on that scent. LOL

I hope not. I added some glue to the mixture. it feels pretty hard and fast to the jar. You could add some kind of clear matte spray paint to be sure.

Thanks for the help!!

I got it as a freebie too.. still in the bottle and it can stay there!! All i can say is i am glad i didn't order it, i would have been PO'd since they don't refund on FO. I don't think i could give it away:tongue2: Blah!!

Hi, does anybody have any info on making your own lables by dying index cards with tea and coffee? I once found a site for making them, Today i googled and haven't found it. thanks Lisa

Just wanted to see what some of you think. thanks for looking.

Thanks alot dani, does it matter if the coffee is instant or grnd coffee??

Hi, does any body know the recipe for the solution with spices and coffee that you paint on jars to make them grubby?? Sure would appreciate the help. Thanks

thanks for looking

Had some pine cones, thought i'd try something different for gift candles YES? NO? Thanks Attached cones with gluegun

Thanks for the info. I live in Elizabethtown, between lancaster and Harrisburg. I have been using Candlewic on occassion I heard of a new one too, Keystone. What have you heard about these two??

Hi am looking for FO suppliers on the East coast. I love Peaks, but I have to wait a week for order to to get here and of course the shipping is higher Appreciate any info of some of your favorites in my area, in Pa. Thanks Lisa

Hi, Does anybody have a FO supplier(s) on the East coast to recommend ? I live in Pa. Would be nice to find a supplier closer to home. I love Peaks but it takes a week for me to get my oils and the shippping is high. So any of you in the East have any suggestions. Thanks Lisa

Thanks, I just got some helpful info at candle science "How to conduct a burn test" I bought a different wax and it just burns way different. Thanks for taking the time and answering. Lisa

Can someone tell me what the correct melting pool time should be for a 3in diameter candle. It is a 10 oz jar .Wax is parafin blend. it seems like my melting pools are full in a half an hour, 1/4in. I know that is not correct, and i have to wick down. What is the appox melting pool time I should be shooting for. Thanks, Lisa

Thanks alot. These are just for gifts, If i get good enough I might consider selling. I am using CBL-125 and 25% pariffin ( want to use up the case that I have. Wasn't crazy about it.)
