    I think the MC one smells like the lemon scent you have in your car after going through the carwash....YUCK!

    Does anyone use this insurance? I have been having a hard time with my insurance agent about insurance. I ran across this in another thread. It appears to be $395 for insurance for the year and $125 to join IBN. Is it worth it?

    Welcome to the board! You'll find a wealth of information here.

    I agree SatinDucky. I think it is too thin of metal, you can't be too careful. Although, I am going to try a citronella candle in a small coffee can and a veggie can. As far as legal stuff, what about the people who stretch the coke bottles and stuff? Or the Corona salt & pepper shakers. Wouldn't that be the same.

    Note to self: Color the Odor eliminator candles grey! LOL Don't you love the adventures in testing?

    So you use less EO than FO?

    I just purchased some of Lebermuth's Bug be gone EO and was wondering if you need to use less EO than FO? I use GB444 with 8-9% FO usually. I want to make some bug candles and I'm not sure how much EO to use. Please help........

    I read somewhere that you should expect 30% of the people you invite to actually show up. 8 out of 20 is good! I've had 2 parties, the first was about 9 people (out of 40 invited) and the second was 4 people. Sales were ok but not great. My first hostess wants to have another show later in the summer for the ones that couldn't attend the first so hopefully we'll have higher numbers the second time around. Good luck with your parties.

    http://www.candletech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47039&highlight=crystal+salt check out this thread, it will give you all the information you need, along with a picture of the type of solar salt to buy. Good luck, it's fun.

    I can't find anywhere a guideline for smelly jelly warning labels. Can you help me with some suggestions?

    Hey Dani, here's the link... http://www.heartfeltcandlesupply.com/MWCG/ It is in Canton, OH. That is only about 40 miles from my family, so hopefully it won't be cancelled!

    I also agree, you can't rely on someone to pay as much attention to your candle as you would. I also test all of mine, that way I can see first hand what it does.

    Well, I just registered. I guess we need everyone interested in going to register soon so it won't be cancelled, huh?

    I agree, what about direct contact with the heat on the pour pot and the flash point of FO's? Scares me. Also, if you use a presto pot or any other pot to melt the wax, this would not work.

    Very Pretty

    I read in another thread to add BW or Steric to harden it. I made a bar with BW & it is ok but just wondering which is better. I would also like to know a % of additive for a starting point, I like to measure in %, easier for me. TIA, Erin

    Sorry to hear about your letter. Good luck, sounds like you have alot of work on your hands to change everything over. So, besides "Melts" what are all of you calling "tarts"?

    Mine do the same thing, I think it is a quirk of soy. You may get more comments if you post in the vegetable section.

    Welcome fellow Hoosier. I don't have any answers for you, I don't use that wax, wicks or tins (sorry) Just wanted to say Hi and welcome to a very helpful board.

    I'd like to try this also, I currently use the BCN base and it is so greasy. I would like to add soy to it so I can keep with my soy line. Any suggestions for a recipe? I am very new to making these things and not sure of what to sub out.

    Please keep us posted on the topics that will be discussed. The shows I have looked into have been mainly about soaping. I am interested in more candle oriented and starting a business, how to market, fundraising, etc... Thanks for working so hard to get this together. I am going to try to attend depending on the presenters.

    Congrats on a successful fund raiser. Your candles look nice.
