I found this on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/FALL-SPECIAL-NEW-WAX-MELTER-FILLED-WITH-SOY-WAX_W0QQitemZ280032186212QQihZ018QQcategoryZ41205QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

the hard blocks of wax?? I would think the granulated wax would be so much easier to use.

Ok, sounds good. Where do I find this stuff?? The IGI Comfort Blend 4627.

That is what I want, one that will hold the fragrance the longest. I got a candle given to me by a friend a few years ago, this was before I got interested in making candles and she is no longer around for me to ask her about it but she used a fragrance oil called LOVE. It has the best scent or I think it does and would like to find that FO to use.

I hear you all talk about different kinds of wax you use and I am sure there is a reason for whichever kind you pick. Ok, here is what I want to do....I just want to make candles to put in jars or small containers but no wick as I don't plan to burn them, I use heating plates for my candles. What would be the best kind of wax to use for what I want to do? I have been reading and reading back through the archives and frankly, I think I am more confused than before, if that is possible. :-)

Hi, found this board and it looks like a good one. I LOVE candles and would like to start making my own but I know absolutely nothing about it so I need help. I don't burn candles because of emphysema but I put the candles on a warmer. I love a lot of different scents so I would want to learn how to add the scents as I am making the candles. I saw in a thread where someone mentioned getting cute little containers from the Dollar Tree and that is a great idea. A little about me, I am a ferret person, notice my avatar, I am a full-time mom to 18 of those little furry monsters. I have a website with lots of pix of our ferrets. http://lighthousetuffy.com/index.htm I am also a big time lighthouse person so I will be on the lookout for any kind of lighthouse containers to make candles out of. Thanx for letting me join the group and I would greatly appreciate help getting me started making candles.
