  1. Just got my products placed into a consignment shop that looks more like a high end boutique. She asked about liability with the handmade soaps and lip butters. Can someone help me out. Not sure what she meant. I would think that since it is consignment I assume all liability.

  2. I am local to Makes Scents Candles and they started carrying "Irish Morning". It smells like Irish Spring and is $14.99/pd. I am only posting this because I notice alot of people looking for that scent and some places are so expensive.

    I do not work for them, I just thought that I would share.

    I use this in liquid soap and linen spray so far and the staying power is great.

  3. You can pour it hot or cool. I prefer cool only because with the temperature fluctuations in my house I don't have to worry about heating the tops.

    I just think that tins are adventorous because they can be unpredictable. For me anyway, they start off very cool and don't melt nice and then the end can be scorching hot. It takes alot of trial and error to wick them correctly.

    Just my opinion, but I would try jars that are the same size from top to bottom and see how that works for you. Just until you get used to how they burn and get the wicking down. Like an inexpensive jelly jar or something. But again, that is just my opinion.

    Good luck.

  4. I use 464 only and here is what I do.

    I melt my wax completley ( i have an electric turkey fryer) and then let it cool completley.

    I then remelt, measure and add FO ( if you use Candlescience scents, you are wasting them by using any more than 3/4 to 1oz pp of wax. You might actually lose scent throw by adding too much.) I stir until around 105 to 100 degrees and then pour.

    I use CD and Eco wicks and I love them. Nice smooth burn and great scent throw with 464.

    You are adventurous starting with candle tins. They can be a pain to wick. Try a 6 or 8oz jar too.

    Good luck.

  5. Hansel and Gretal:

    Is this just a gingerbread scent? Any good?

    This one is awesome and bakery, not just ginderbread

    Very Vanilla:

    Oh my, this one is THE BEST vanilla that I have ever smelled

    Pumpkin Souflee:

    I just ordered this one for a fundraiser and it is amazing.

    I use gb464 not c3, but these are all fantastic. You really can't go wrong with Candlescience
