  1. I too squeeze the excess wax off the dipped animals and take a fork and fluff them up as well. I like them to look as close to non dipped as possible while still being dipped and they sell very well for me. Well I should say they sell well around the holidays or special occasions when people buy them as gifts.

    I have only played around with TP once and it wasn't cute at all lol. I do like the one in the thread of the pic posted, that's amazing!!

  2. I went back and read the thread, and apologize in advance if I missed an answer but...

    Could one use say some of the play sand they sell at Lowes/Home Depot, use FO and dye, and just have it sitting in a bowl and it be used as a room freshener? Just curious if anyone has done this opposed to using it with wicks for burning.

  3. I made up a few candles as a gift and used the square libby jar from dollar tree and what I did was use card stock, layed the jar upside down and traced around the jar. Then I came in just a bit when I cut it out and it fit down in the jar perfectly. I used a regular hole punch to make room for the wicks to come through. I then put the whole thing in a cello bag with rafia ribbon to tie it off.

    I wish I had a picture of the finished product but I hope it still makes a bit of sense.

  4. I have only used the palm wax from Swans, which is very local to me here in Washington. I do love the fact that I can just go in to the store and get what I need and put it in the car and go. I can also just call ahead and they have it ready for me to pick up and will even stay open a bit later, at least here, if you are running late and say you are on your way. I have recently started buying oils and testing them and so far so good on all I've tried with that as well.

  5. I put the website address on the label.

    I have done the folding hangtags and had put the burning instructions/tips on the inside, but later went the the simple non folding hangtag.

    I think for everyone it's just a personal preference and I've seen the folding kind and the half tags both and seen both done very well where if I were shopping for a candle, would have looked at the tag.
