Eileen, if you're interested, here's my method. Since I'm horrible at math, I like to keep it simple. I create my "bees bar" at 50% beeswax, 25% butters, 25% oils. I cut it into 1 oz & .5 oz pieces. This way I know more or less what I'm using instead of measuring tablesp & cups. 1 oz piece = .5 oz bees, .25 oz butter, .25 oz oils .5 oz piece = .25 oz bees, .125 oz butter, .125 oz oils
