just text my dad who only lives within spitting distance........now if i could rob a bank!!

The motor oil one is so horrible it smells just like motor oil though. They have a dirt one and garlic one too yech! Who would want a garlic candle LOL.

might be good for keeping vampires away!! (sorry just had to)

wouldnt mind the motor oil one as friend of mine works in motor sport may have to keep that in mind!

having only recently entered into the dark addiction called candle making i agree it not cheap:( fun and exciting and lots to learn though

i used to think it was my children who broke my bank managers heart now i hear he breaks into a cold sweat and hides in the corner crying when some one mentions candle making:tongue2:

i also think theres a market if you can get your prices good enough, having looked around we have limited suppliers of moulds over here at a reasonable price:)

There are a few suppliers over here ie full moons (priced over odds) thorne and few more

Cant advise on customs etc possibly nattycat would be the best lady to speak to about that side of things:)

What ever you decide on keep me posted and good luck

excuse my ignorance but what are stickums? is it the same as sticky dots??

i love the design but think the white is best one:wink2:

Try doing a search first then...

i did

was just wondering if apart from the browns and reds any others had come across any more:D

hi

hi there

just looking for rough guideline on how many votives 100g of beeswax would make??

an idea of tealights also would be nice if thats not to cheeky:D

I'm going to crack on with my votives for now, testing them and then maybe I can at last sell something!

cheapest i can find:(

i must stop wandering around looking at things thinking i wonder if i could use that and wonder if girls would notice i nicked this of them and melted wax in it

mind you i have now got them and their mates keeping old lip balm type pots/eyeshadow/blusher to store a scented wax in so if friends want to know what scent smells like what i can whip it under their nose and say sniff that *super banana*

now off to search the kitchen cupboards lol no where is now safe

ARGHHHH I really want to give these a go! Do they sell these in the UK? I've tried a google search and came up with zilch!! What are the beads called in the UK - if they sell them here :rolleyes2

Everyone here for the most part is very nice. No matter how silly the question may seem, we all have been new.

Your question has already been answered!!!

i know everyones nice here and answers but there are times when as a new kid on the block i feel a little :embarasse asking questions that may seem to have obvious answer, but then if you dont ask you dont learn

long may the questions keep coming

aarrrggghhh why cant i remember where i have seen them :embarasse its driving me nuts have searched in cookery shops £1 shops you name it............. i just want some :D

hi
