  1. I am going to have to try those. I have been thinking about making melts as well! And you have a great idea there! Thanks for sharing!!
  2. Thanks everyone for your helpful hints and tips!! I really appreciate it!
  3. Thanks so much for the suggestion!! I will definitely have to try that out!
  4. I found one at Wal-mart for $21.00 Thanks again everyone for the help!! Can't wait to use it!! I looked online, but couldn't find one except on Amazon for more, then you would have to pay shipping, so going to the store is the best way.
  5. Thanks again everyone!! And thanks so much for the links!!
  6. So it is called a presto kitchen kettle, is there a spicket type thing on it, or is it just a big pot?? TIA!
  7. How do you go about testing different wicks without making a new container candle for each wick? TIA!
  8. Can anyone tell me where to get one of these presto wax melters? I have read about them somewhere else and can't remember where I found the info! It would speed up my candle making process so much if I had one of these, I could make more at once, and clean up wouldn't be near as bad. Thanks!! Jewel

  10. Hi all, I want to start making tarts. I make container candles right now with ez soy wax flakes. Anyone know if it is okay to use this wax for tarts as well, or do I need to use a different kind of soy wax? TIA! Jewel OOPS:embarasse I didn't read far enough down!! Sorry everyone!
  11. I seem to sell more when I don't use coloring. I too have lost sales because someone didn't like the color. So I am not going to use the color anymore and so far it has gone really well.
  12. I have been having a problem with when my wax cools it looks like it kind of pulls away from the jar in some spots. It doesn't happen with all the candles that I pour but a lot of them. And it can be the same batch where one will not have it at all and another one will have spots all over. I use EZ soy wax flakes. Any suggestions on how to keep it from doing this? Or is that just something that is going to happen? Thanks ladies!! Jewel
  13. Hi Everyone, I am new to MP soapmaking and have been trying to find a good mold release. I read you can use petroleum jelly, but it left my soap pretty greasy. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help!! Jewel
