  8. I hnad ask about it the other day an I had a lot of people upset. I was wanting to do a melt or a melt bar. I have all the stuff I think I just don't know how much of what %. If anyone could inlighten me on this I would be most happy. Thanks Jamie:D
  9. Oh yea one more thing I have not sold votives in the past. Price wise 1.00 - 1.50 ea or 1 dz for $15.00 sound right? Jamie
  10. Thank you very much, sometimes I have those days. I am trying to get ready for my first candle party. 2 Much on my mind:highfive: Jamie
  11. Hello Hope all is good with everyone. I have started making votives with a one pour wax however I can not get my wax amounts to come out. They are 2 oz votives how much wax should it take. 2 x 12 = 24oz If one pound of hard wax is = to 20oz should it not take 1lb & 4oz. Am I doing something wrong because it is not enough. Help! Thank Jamie
  12. Hello, I purchases electric roater at Kmart for 34.00. It will melt 20lbs @ a time. If you use this start it on about 200 and move the temp up if you need to once the wax is melted you can turn it back down. Works great for me. Jamie
  13. Thank You I will try the miller site. I know my other half is about half way ticked off this is all i do plus my candles. If I can get my soap down like I have my candles I will be so happy. Thanks a bundle Jamie:drool:
