  1. WOW, what an opportunity, I hope it all works out for you Trish!!

    Of course you'll be busier than a one legged man in a kicking contest, and you'd have to do something about your procrastinating behavior! ;) LOL

    Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for ya! :D

  2. Oh man, that is a bummer, and an ego buster for sure. :(

    I think I would simply go up to them and ask them about the candles they are burning. Maybe they were a gift from someone else who knows??? How else are you gonna know the "whys" of it?

    Maybe offer a special deal to them on their next purchase. ;)

    Hang in there, you know you have a good candle, and you just have to remember that you can't please ALL of the people ALL of the time.

  3. I pour my while still warm iand runny into the bottles then I wait till they completly cool to put the top on.

    Almost every site I've gone to that sells B&B supplies has suggested this, and it makes sense to me-seems it would be so much easier to pour when warm and a bit runnier. :)

  4. I use HTP's, zincs and LX's (depending on the container obviously ;) ) with this wax, and have never used more than 6% (1oz.) per pound, I'm with Trish, if I have to use more, than I just don't use that FO anymore, not cost efficient. ;)

    I haven't noticed any difference in whether I heat my jars or not.

    Michael, sorry you could never get this wax to throw for YOU, I think I've had only ONE FO so far not throw for me with this wax.

  5. I don't even use a themometer with this wax, no matter what temp I pour it at, it's the same, so I haven't really worried about it for a long time.

    I like mine to "cure" about a week, but when I do my wick testing I'll burn them the next day after pouring and they throw really well. ;)

  6. I'm pretty sure this is Rachel's (Pamperme) recipe ;)

    Shimmer Body Powder

    2oz + 1 tsp cornstarch

    1/2 tsp B&B glitter

    10 drops FO of choice..add 2 drops at a time to prevent clumping..you can also sift them together for better blending.

    HTH
