im sure i read some where 10-25 FO

1 pound box of baking soda

leave for a week

i did this yesterday and never left it used after 1 hour and wow cant wait to see what other lot smells like after a week, and also what a goodish way of using left over oils:D

Not sure if this is correct place but does any one in uk know where you can buy the mini pots these are in??? just think they are pretty and nice way of using up some left over wax, im sure i have seen them some where but for the life of me........

they cant be more than2cm x 2cm

thanks girls and boys:D

maybe we need a complete ml's, oz, lbs conversion chart on here lol

i would like you could cause you can mix soy & para would imagine they would both have be pillar blend (you can bet im wrng though!!

i just hunting some vybar down now

not sure about the american tan though its not my colour:tongue2:

i know you can do soy pillar votives, cause i made a boo boo and made them with container!! suffered major frosting:cry2: but nat did give good tip to gently rub the outside of them with a pair of tights! i did that and aslo blasted them with hair dryer (heat gun still to be bought)

am always looking out for pouring jugs everywhere but not much look:cry2: will keep looking! still no postie think he playing games with me!!

i dont suppose you stock the "powder shakers" they look like talcum powder bottles, need some but not worth the cost of shipping them over:cry2:

was good deal but now wondering if i should of bothered as i cant make that many at once only have one wax pan, maybe i should of bought melting jug instead of holders!!

glad you have the calculations down im still confuddled by them all but then it dont take much!

wish i lived in the states been looking at aroma ornies and cant get beads over here:cry2: mind you not much we can get here!

good luck with chasing postie just wish mine would hurry up not sure which i want more the moulds or papers!! erm papers lol

well now you girls are sorted perhaps you can take me in hand and sort my brain out maths was never my strong point! sitting here waiting for my delivery of 20 voitve molds and pins which i managed to grab for 22 quid, and searching the forums for tips and ideas, see thats what i do with a week off work sick!

i should get more organised cost weight diameter wise but cant get head round it!!

Ah well time for another coffee and bite at the postman fingers crossed not only will he bring my moulds but a set of divorce papers im waiting eagerly for

this maybe a very dumb question so please feel free to giggle at me but how do you whip wax?

when you get it all figured out let me know as now im totally totally confuddled:D

does any one know where i can find a company willing to ship the blanks to the uk?

does any one know of a company that will ship these to the uk?

sorry ladies i should of said about battery i totally forgot till i just read back:embarasse

so if im making a parrafin candle do i need stearin or vybar

right at the bottom

bargain aint they half price was gob smacked when saw them and just grabbed quick!

we dont have wilko around here:( am now on look out for pillar moulds!! will it ever end

i bought some other day from tesco for about same price, mine if i am pressing correct buttion has a tare function so i put bowl on which show the weight hit the button and it re sets to zero then weigh out what i need, no doubt if i got this wrong( probably) some one will shout OI no

hi

please dont shoot have done search and wow lots of varying info but still not getting what i need

• do you need to cure parrafin candles
  
• if so for how long
  
• covered or uncovered light or dark place

also info on curing of soy candles would be great pretty please

195 with some more on the way!!:embarasse

all different candles mainly votives at the minute but was just looking for general all round ideas:D

looking for some ideas on packaging candles and would love to hear/see what the experts out there use:D

i take it by that you mean 50% of one wax and 50% of the other only asking as i have both here and wondered if it can be mixed my self and not bought

is it possible to mix the 2 different wax's if so what is the ratio?

and what are the advantages/disadvantages of this and also at what temp is best to melt to and pour:embarasse

Many thanks in advance
