Somebody sniff please, Christmas Hearth. I'll have to go read the description. I wonder if the plumberry is spicy.

Had high hopes for driftwood, my Mom absolutely loved the cold throw. Unfortunately the throw just wasn't there.

Any burn reviews yet on the new ones? I'm just heading out to pour up my samples now. I like the smell of the driftwood but it defiantly is light OOB, hopefully it will bloom.

You can do it!!!

Ah man I just ordered a bunch from there to test. Great oils~ Those sound really interesting hope to hear some reviews.

I like both of the middle ones, though I'm not fond of the bright background on the second middle one I like how your candle colors pop in that one. The first middle one is spookier and fits better with Halloween theme (dark). I enjoyed reading the poem it wouldn't distract me from buying the candle. I thought it added some spookiness like when you go into a haunted house and a scary story is being told.

I tried to get a hold of her too for some work I need done. I was told by a friend of hers she is taking time to be with family.

Looks divine

Oh this isn't sounding good. Has anybody tried GL's violet musk or Indonesian teak since they switched companies?

I ordered some oils from there years ago but there was talk of them closing then so I never ordered again. I didn't know it was still open, it must just keep switching hands? Well at least your money isn't gone.

Hmmmmmmmmm~

I am dying to sniff those, very nice.

WOW, why are you getting all technical, lol. My experience with soot is that if you said something about it, you most defiantly saw it, lol. If it was unseen soot you wouldn't have brought it up would you? Why do you sound like you want to argue anyway? Yes the jar does make a difference but generally if there is soot the wick is TOO LARGE. And no you didn't say you like to wick weak that is the impression I got from you. You would rather have a weak flame then a larger flame. There are lot's of variables to what is a weak flame and what is too hot. Please, let's not go there. I've been making candles for 10 years I think I can handle it. I said the high flames seem to be the nature of the best and you right away assumed I don't know what I am doing. I simply stated my experience so far testing this wax as I was relating to tootie who is experiencing the same. I have heard of the CDN wicks but I have never used them because I don't like CD wicks. By what I can recall reading about the CDN I got the feeling they were similar so I never tried them. I have been testing with the CSN wicks so thanks for the detailed info there, lol. I'm also testing hemp, cotton and LX. I have a huge bag of different wicks but can't seem to find them. Most of my testers are too the bottom and have went out aside from a few. The CSN 9 is also recommended for votives. I would like to hear if that works for Tootie cause my guess it probably won't. However, I felt the 9 was too hot for votives as well as the hex squat jar IMO, though that is what is recommended so hey you never know. I liked the Lx14 for votives and the 44c for the squat jar until I can get some smaller size CSN to test. I'm using a square cube jar which can be a pain in itself. The top is 2.5" and the bottom is approx 2". Should be easy right? Yep~ The CSN 12 cleans the sides down after about half way it starts to clean up. It's a great wick aside from the tall flame. The CSN11 was hit & miss, OK for lighter scents but can't seem to produce an acceptable burn on the first half. Though the flame is still fairly tall, strange. I think it would be a flop for the consumer. I may test it again I'm sure. The 60C has a bit smaller flame but it can't seem to pull the sides down near the bottom. It produces a nice melt pool but the wax on the sides is actually barely warm. Defiantly the safer wick, lol. The hemp 1400 was too weak (drowning) and the LX I never seem to care for in larger sizes. So there is my take on it so far if anybody cares~

Whoops, I meant to ask how wide is it, the 9 oz hex that is? I'm not familiar with the CDN wicks but I have not experienced any soot with any of the wicks I've tried so far. Large flames yes, soot none at all. That just seemed odd to me since you said you like to wick weak. Ah well, tomorrow is another day, I'm off to dream land.

Stella, may I ask what size jar you use for the glass glow?
