  1. the white center is the "febreeze" part..
  2. Has any one bought and tested the new febreeze candle? I bought the vanilla one the other day...I am not really sure what it is supposed to do, all I could smell is the vanilla. The febreeze part is around the wick only. It burns really well though..wish I knew what wax and wick it was..well, it does have a little mushroom..makes me feel better about my mushrooms.. I attached some pics.. out of box.................2hr burn.....................4hr burn
  3. I am now trying a cd 8 wick...I also let it sit for about a day and half and it seems to be doing ok so far after an hour of lighting... so maybe this wax needs longer to sit after pouring..
  4. hmm, then I am stumped...htp 126 will have about 1 1/2 flame and the next wick down, htp 83 tunnels in and drown..I don't know, I guess I will just go back to the gb 415 wax...
  5. no I just a 10 # slab from CS....this slab is very soft. I can tear it in pieces, no knifes or anything needed..is this wax really supposed to be soft? Let me ask this...how long should I let this wax cure before lighting it? With gb 415, I could test the wick after about 8 or 10 hours after pouring it...do I need to wait longer. My wicks are just tunneling down and drowning...
  6. where would I find the batch #? the upc bar code says 10005. only numbers I can find..
  7. well maybe I got some of the bad 6006... I tried rrd 40 = wick drowned htp 83 = wick drowned htp 126 big flame.... I am puzzeled
  8. I just started using 6006, I have a 2.5 diameter jar..I test a htp 126 (I use that for my GB 415) but the flame got very high in this wax......what would you recommend for the wick? my next test will be with rrd 40... suggestions
  9. I use 4794 also and this is what I do..On my first pour, I pour just below the top (so it does not go over the edge), then I only wait about 2 hours and do the repour and pour it until it is almost ready to go over the edge and they come out perfectly.. hope that makes sense..
  10. oh great, I just got some 6006 in today and try for the first time from CS, hope it works out...
  11. ok, where can I find good votive boxes? Cierra candles has a box for 4 votives and a box for 10 votives...however their shipping is outrageous.....I have looked and looked and just can't find the right ones... any suggestions to find nice looking boxes...any one use the 12 count from NG?
  12. I know I have seen a post about this but search is not coming up with what I want... What suppliers give away free samples and who does not...and do you know the $ amount you have to spend... I thought CS did but the last 2 orders I have done have not came with any.. WSP~~ does not at all
  13. Next time try using a nail ( I use a roofing nail) and put that head down in our ornie before you put them in the oven.. make sense?
  14. Most of the time I don't have $50 to spend.....I have also noticed that some of the bigger FO bottles ( 8oz +) are cheaper than WSP...I don't know maybe I should test the waters.
  15. Well my main supplier has been WSP and I really like their FO and the fast shipping..however I for some reason went to NG and added some stuff to my cart and saw that shipping is WAY much cheaper for me. I have only used one FO from NG (monkey farts)..can some one give me a review of NG's scents...I don't know about their waxes so I will have to get that else where but.. thanks for the info.
  16. I currently use my own generic labeling and packaging.. I was told before I start selling, I need more "feminine" packaging and labels. My main line will probably be votives for now...Do any of you wish to share their labeling and packages..and where you get them from.. thanks for any info..
  17. what kind of candle are you burning? ( votive, container etc..)
  18. just a thought...I use lx 14 in my 4794
  19. I should have said I am using htp 126 for my 8 oz jar ( gb 415 wax) which slightly mushrooms and LX 14 for my votives (4794 wax) which mushrooms..should I wick up..or not worry about since the throws are very good..
  20. I searched for What causes mushrooming and it came back with really no info.... can someone tell me what may cause it?
  21. I bought the $30 one from walmart...I love it...I heat jars, heat my molds so I can clean them...
  22. Please correct me if I am wrong and before I do something I regret....does paraffin have a better throw than soy or is it the other way around or is my thinking way off and the throw matters on other elements...
  23. it is probably the weather, it is like 100+ in my house..
