    Thanks everyone for the sweet comments on my stuff! The firestarters were sooo easy.. just Mulberry scented potpouri (cheap kind from Walmart) put in a muffin cup, wicks pieces out to the edges, and pour your melted wax scraps over the top of all of the potpouri and let it set till hardened.. and voila~ you got firestarters! LOL.. can't get any easier than that!

    I done the heat gun thing.. made mess.. so I started over.. Iam just going to stick with soy tarts!LOL.. they were less mess to deal with~hahaha... actually I think it was more the "operator" than the wax itself.. but hey its all in fun learning the process.. and It aint like I wont use the tarts myself~LOL.. Thank you all for your help and advice in this fiasco!! I am chalking it up to lesson learned in keep patience when working with candles! haha
  14. candlesbyMe
    Ok.. repoured them.. can I take my heat gun and make the tops smooth and look nice and blended like they should be? or will that make a bigger mess than when it started? it has like a "bubble" effect on the top that is seperated from the rest is why I am asking .. thought the heat gun would make it melt to the rest of the tart... Man I hate trying to "fix" stuff~lol.. any advice appreciated~Thanks much!!

    I powerburn from time I get up till I go to bed.. usually from 6am till midnight.. that gives general idea of good burn time for the ones I do for people like me that loves to have one burn all the time... but I watch it very close and it is usually a bigger jar that I do that too!
  16. candlesbyMe
    I will give that a try tonight..I do my best work when everyone is in the bed and I can concentrate with out little people yelling "mommy" ~lol.. Thanks everyone for your help. I will post what happens with the remelts tonite~
  17. candlesbyMe
    I didn't spray it but I used vaseline to put a very very thin film on the bottom and sides to keep from sticking .. it worked beautifully with the c3 soy and so I figured would with the parafin... thats what I get for thinking~lol.. I am goin to just pop them out and remelt to start over again.. it even did it in the clamshell too.. (which that one by the way was mine) did it as my little tester to see what the scent was going to hold well... so that one I am not worrying about but the ice cubes were for someone else that wanted bigger tarts~.. back to the drawing board~haha
  18. candlesbyMe
    no they are not for me.. and have no clue how far down they go.. I will pop them out and remelt and pour them again and develp me self some patience~lol.. since I was not "blessed with them" I need to develop them on my own~haha.. thanks so much!!
  19. candlesbyMe
    no twisting done.. can I repour over it and fix it or shoud I just pop them out and re melt them and pour them in again and just wait my little self with some patience? I hate to loose them ~ you know..
  20. candlesbyMe
    when I put them in the freezer for about 10 min for "quick" cool to get them out of the ice cube tray did they crack on the bottom????? the C3 straight soy did NOT do this but the straight votive/parafin did?? What did I do wrong? HELP please???? Now I am cryin really hard...
  21. candlesbyMe
    that are the candy and soap molds for tarts too? or will they melt the molds? I have found some of the cutest ones on ebay for law enforcement (which is what my hubby does since having to quit driving OTR) that I would love to make just for fun but dont want to waste my money if they are not going to hold up... so any advice would be appreciated! Thanks much!! Jen

    yeah now in HOT summer temps it may make alot of difference...right now in TN is not too bad.. finally have FALL like temps like suppose to be~lol.. summers too HOT to do straight and may be messy Im sure.. but for winter time coming on.. it will be fun to use up the free sample flakes on to see what I can come up with~haha Thanks for all the advice that come to my rescue from everyone here!! you all are just awesome!!
  24. candlesbyMe
    Well ok.. I made these with the C3 and done them in ice cube trays and they turned out GREAT!!! I took fingertip and rubbed a THIN line of vaseline inside each cube before pouring filled it up to the top and let set up and popped in freezer for about 10 minutes or so and they popped right out.. no crackes, no frosted tops, they looked BEAUTIFUL~ and burned nicely too.. I was just excited.. and thought I would post the results!

    I made some Cranberry Bath cookies last night .. they were awesome! I am testing them tonight to see how thefinished product turned out before I send them to people~lol.. Has anyone made these before that could offer some advice as to what can "decorate" the tops with that is still B/B safe? Thanks in advance~ Jenni
