How about these jars? I use them, they are called MeltingPot jars. I am from up north so I get mine through the Jar Store. I really wouldn't know where else to get them.?:undecided HTH a little. Kimmeroo

This may sound stupid...but what are jar lights? I only make jar candles so I have no clue what those are!? Thanks! Kimmeroo

Hello! I used to make votives for a little farm market.....and of course I couldn't afford a zillion molds!So, I read somewhere a lady used the wax coated dixie cups! So... that is what I did and I loved the fact that I could just rip them off and toss! Just make sure you let the wax cool before pouring or it will melt the waz coating and leak all over. HTH! I loved that method...I used straight paraffin. Kimmeroo

I actually just got done pouring soy candles to test! Then who knows for Easter? Prolly hit a buffet...all my family live in Florida! Have a great Easter everyone and good luck to all those who are testing and playing!!! And to those who are resting! ENJOY!!!!!! Kimmeroo

Hi Jane42! I read that you were trying to think of a good "man scent"? I just started making the aroma bead sachets and our "man scents"are, Drakkar,Tommy Boy,Applewood Balsam and Leather... so far. HTH:cheesy2: Kimmeroo

I know how you feel! I am just getting back into it from taking a 3 year break! I almost sold my business...but when it came right down to someone wanting to buy it I backed out 'cause I knew that I would regret it. So, needless to say, I am glad I kept it and here I am trying it one more time! I hope you figure out what to do! Kimmeroo

Hi Wader! I am new to this board....but I know exactly what you are talking about!!! I used to use 125 paraffin for mottled container candles...but decided to do something different and switched to J223 and oh my Gosh! The wet spots are huge and hidious! I used my noodle and got my heat gun out and heated around the glass and re-smoothed the top. It seems that the "Wetspots" is air that is trapped between the wax and the jar! I only fixed one so far just to see if they would come back and so far so good. I am not fixing the rest until I get the orders and I'll fix them. HTH:cheesy2: I do have a question for anyone though..... I use the melting pot jars from the jar store and I am having the darndst time wicking these.I use J223, dye chips,CD 18 wick....still no full melt pool after 3 hours of burning! So I move up to a CD20 and that is better.....should I double wick? What size do you recommend to start with? TIA Sorry sooo looong! Kimmeroo

I need to get some pics taken so I can build a new website!! I am just getting back into things, where I live it is very hard to be successful(sp) at anything!!

Yeah! I never thought of any of those!Thank you all for responding!!

This may sound odd,but, I saw a container candle that had black spots(like on a cow)on each side and the rest was white, it looked like cow hide it was really cool.I have no clue as to how they did that! Does anyone have a clue?? TIA Kimmer:confused:
