  7. I like to go to flea markets and buy other peoples candles that I know haven't been tested (especially the ones with the off-center wicks) bring them home, steam off the label and put my label on it....and THEN RESELL THEM AS MY OWN

  9. Hey Dust, You forgot the part where your shoes were so worn out that your toes were exposed And....if the toes were exposed, then we need to address if they were properly pedicured......
  10. Don't sell candles unless you have tested for 365 days straight and with only four 15 minutes naps during that whole time.....NOW THAT'S A GOOD CONCLUSION!!!
  11. I used to use a paraffin blend. But, I tried some 50/50 blends because I was looking for a cleaner burn and less soot. To me ,the paraffin in the blend helps with the vibrancy of the color and makes it a firmer candle (I don't like a mushy candle) and the soy helps with scent throw and burn. I am using Candles & Supplies (house blend) 1275 wax. This is truly a one pour wax that is 50/50 and I love it for my containers. It is sold in a 10lb slab. It is easy to cut and measure and can take up to 1 1/2 oz of FO per lb, although, I usually use just 1 oz because it holds so well and throws scents so well. HTH:cool2: The only downfall is that you can't use it for tarts....not firm enough to pop out of the mold easily. -Denise
  12. Julie, you are outrageous!! :p
  13. I rename this one "Weekend at the Cabin" after the holidays are over.
  14. Callie, If you are looking for a good 50/50 blend, try the 1275 (in house blend) of Candles & Supplies in PA. I love this wax for containers. The throw is spectacular, it comes in 10lb slabs and it is a TRUE one pour. Colors nicely with liquid dye and is a firmer wax, so you don't get that mushy touch after it is set up. When I went in search of this kind of wax, I ran into too many that had that mushy, oily, vaseline type feeling when I touched the finished product. YUCK!! Let me know if there is anything that I can help you with if you decide to switch over and try it. It burns nicely with pre-tabbed zinc core wicks also.
  15. The amount of red dye varies depending on the shade that you are trying to achieve. What I do is add the drops of dye, stir and dip a butter knife into the wax and let a drop of the colored wax land on a white paper towel. That will generally give me an idea of what shade I am looking at when the candle is set up and cooled down. From there I add to make it more vibrant or darker.
  16. Hey Top, You forgot berry somewhere in that scent name.....you're slipping.....LOL!!
  17. Have you tried the Orange Marmalade from JS? Or the Orange Dreamsickle.......more orange than sickle.....
