  1. Does anyone know where i can get some Peach Mango F.O.? I have someone wanting some & I cant find it anywhere. Would it smell the same if i mxed peach & Mango??
  2. How is the scent throw with these..frosted & glass glow?
  3. see i'm the same..i love CS, but was wondering if it was to big. I will try it & if not i'll just double wick it with something else.
  4. I gave up on soy votives..i switched to palm wax..its prettier & i haven't had one single problem. Well take that back..i have had acouple times having pin holes on top from air pockets, but a heat gun will fix it.
  5. I am considering trying Soy again.. :pI'm just going to start with Tins (16oz). I went on CandleScience.com & used their wick guide. They suggested HTP 1212. I have some of that (for when i was trying to wick palm) & well it looks sooo big. My tins are 3 & 3/4 in diameter. They also suggested LX 26's. What do you think? I am going to test, test, test of course...but just wanted other opinions before i went & actually poured my first one. P.s. I'm using Ecosoya 135
  6. well from your last thread, I was expecting a really bad hurricane, but it wasn't all that bad. Yes, your votive looks wonderful & containers look very delicious. Thanks for the pics finally! lol
  7. It sounds like you have gotten the hurricane holer & not the TL holer. But yes maybe cutting it might help. Maybe cutting it with an electric knife, like you cut your turkey with on Thanksgiving day...lol I have flat & concaved molds..haven't made a difference.
  8. I place the plug in bottom of my metal mold, place a Glass tea light holder on top of that. When the candle comes out just take out the plug & your glass tea light is embedded into your candle ready for a tea light to be inserted. Kay-- are you out there? Need your help! SOS anyone.... Help save the day!! I finally received my tealight insert plug and followed your directions above. After it was just about impossible to get the insert plug out of the mold I discovered another problem-- the tealight glass was too low inside the pillar. GRRRRR! But it sure was beautiful, which is what broke my heart. Hubby says, "I think you need to cut some of that silicone off the plug to make it level with the TL glass." I think the TL glass I used is about as pretty low profile as it comes. Would it make a difference if the mold is flat or concave? I think the problem just lies in the fact that too much of the plug sticks out of the glass TL. What to do? Many thanks~~~ does it look like this? I have had no problem with the glass being to low...my plug fits almost flush with the TL glass. actually the glass ticks out just a hair.
  9. Leesters....you are one popular man on here!!!..we want to see pics darn it!! Of candles of course! lol
  10. thats why I only do forevers..I get air pockets bad when I try to wick palm. Thats the little holes your getting.
  11. lol! I so hear ya! I had the same questions when I got mine. I used a hot glue gun & just dabbed a little glue on the outside of the hole...works just as good as mold sealer. Then one day I ran out of glue sticks so used nothing. I had no leaks in my 4 inch diameter mold, but my 3 in leaks every time. I have a magnet square coming (please excuse me I can't remember whats its actually called) but it looks like a square & its magnet...sticks to the bottom of most molds, so it says...lol I'll let you know how it works. Good luck! Any questions, just ask!
  12. I hear ya!!!!! If I run out I make my husband run to the store..NOW!!! lol
  13. I have a little less than 5# of ecosoya container wax (from Nu-Scents) sitting here not being used. (its just not for me) I am willing to do an even trade for Palm wax (Pillar or container). I'll pay shipping on my end, if you pay shipping on your end. I posted in classifies, but never get much response there..thought I would try here..sorry if its a no-no.. Kay
  14. Oh Man, I forgot the burn bream & band-aids!!!
  15. Thanks! I guess ppl just have a nak for some stuff. Some ppl just do very well with Soy (unlike me) & some have the nak for Palm (like me)..lol
  16. Same way! If you find another way, let me know! lol
  17. maybe this pic is better...the other one hurt my eyes lookin at it..lol
  18. My mother N Laws candle is, but my mom's is not. I'm going to make scented t-lites for hers.
  19. I made these up yesterday..i have one more (for my step mom) in the oven drying now. What do you think???? Sorry the photo is a little blurry..my camera has been acting up a little.
  20. I just did my first water slide decal on palm today & it turned out great! I still have to spray it one more time with clear coat, but so far its turned out pretty good.
