    Married with 3 grown children, 2 grandchildren and I love making candles. Just started about 1 year ago, so I need lots of advice.

  1. Are you talking about after the wax is melted? It will measure out to 20oz. I always use 1 oz. per pound of wax which is 6 or 7%. I'm not good with percentages.
  2. The only one that I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is a window paint scraper. I have a glass top stove that I have my presto on and when I pour or dip from it I'm always sloppy. I didn't want to use metal to scrape up drops of wax so I thought of using the window scraper. I use it on my counters also.
  3. I pour mine and let them cool overnight in the box they came in and then next day trim wick and then put lid on. I don't see how you could put the lids on as soon as you pour them unless they are talking about covering them with a box or styrofoam cooler.
  4. I vote for BCN also. I've been using them for a year with no problems.
  5. Thanks ladies. I 've just started doing pillars and will have more questions I'm sure. Thanks again. Brenda
  6. I just made my first chunk pillar using 1343. Heated wax to 190 degrees. Am I supposed to still get the rusted look on the outside of the pillar? I followed the directions that are on the board.
  7. I never would have thought that I would like a black candle but that is beautiful
  8. Very pretty. Love the colors.
  9. Jameel, I'm not an expert on Web Pages, but I do know what I like and don't like. I do like yours because it looks soft and pretty and if that works for you, go for it. Customers also know what they like and don't like.
  10. Very pretty, love the colors. Hopefully mine will look as good as yours.
  11. They all are so pretty. Love the deep colors
  12. It's all very pretty. I'm certain she will love it.
  13. All of them are beautiful. Love the Black Rasberry Vanilla.
