awww... isn't that a cute question? you see, there are so many factors to a good scent throw and complete melt pool.... wicks, for instance. There are countless waxes that have incredible throw. It's just a matter of finding the right wick, fragrance oil, pour temperature, additives, skill of chandler, cooling technique, barometric pressure, etc. etc. There is no miracle wax.

apparently you and I are the ONLY ones, LMAO!!

psst... one can't come on here and simply advertise a sale.... one must ask for recommendations, even if she knows how to search...

I read somewhere that Flicker's Tuscan Lace was very similar to sultry angel. I've never tested sultry angel to know for myself.

Daystar is having a sale... anyone have any recommendations? It's only today, but 20% off if you spend $75 Gotta put 'member' in the comment section to get sale prices

Let me see if I can paint a picture... you have two measuring cups, side by side. In one, you have 8 ounces of water. In the other, you have 8 ounces of feathers. Both are equal in volume. But, in weight, they are VERY different. Apply this to candle wax, FO, etc. 8 ounces in volume is NOT equal to 8 ounces in weight. This is what we mean when we say that 1/2 oz of FO, by volume, isn't the same as 1/2 FO by weight. Or as Stella said, 8 ounces of wax. As far as what Grama said, when you freeze water, it expands. The chemical changes something goes through when it changes from one state to another (solid to liquid, liquid to solid, etc) change things a bit. So, if you melt 16 ounces, by weight, of wax you get 20 ounces, by volume, of melted wax. (I'm not sure if soy wax gives you 20 ounces, by volume. I'm just using this as an example). Did that help or simply make it worse?

Greenleaf has them, BCN used to have them... don't know if they still do.

I tried using glue dots... every time they released like that. I do better with wick stickers or even some silicone glue.

welcome back FO is generally measured by weight, not volume. 1/2 oz in a shot glass is different than 1/2 oz by weight. I'd suggest getting a digital scale and weighing everything.

Spurs Miss Kitty (for Angel, etc.) Branded Buckle Bunny Ok, I'm at a loss now...

soy wax can be hard to wick... even harder in a jar that doesn't have straight sides. I've found that anything over about 3 1/4" just can't be single wicked. Then, if you wick for the widest part of the jar, it will be overwicked when you get to the narrow part. For me, it would definitely be a challenge to wick that jar...

if you look in the right corner, not as high up as your log in name... you will see a search this forum button. See pic below. Then you pick key words to search, in this case 'vanilla' or 'vanilla soy' or whatever wax you use. By the way, I like MC Extreme Vanilla or KY Southern Vanilla. When I'm feeling really froggy, I'll make some DS Ultimate Vanilla (which is on sale this week, woo hoo!!)

wait... I wanna say it too... WHOOOOSH! KA BOOM!! KA POW!! sorry, I ad libbed a bit...

Hi, everyone... Flicker's is having a sale! Anyone have any recommendations?

from the hobbycandele home page, there are links to your site... It's under Ultimi Commenti Didn't know if you knew that...

TCS always offers free shipping if you buy 6 pounds of FO. And, they take $1 off per pound if you buy 10 pounds, and they still ship for free.

to add to your FOH order, you might want to try bamboo sugar cane as well

How in the world did I miss this thread for over 24 hours?? Woo hoo!! No more pumpkin threads!!
