  1. Gosh, didn't mean to be rude and not respond. We've been busy painting the house.

    The wax is KY 125 Ecosoy. The wicks not sure, as I've tried several and do not have my notes here now.

    Yeah, the lop sider one.I wondered about that, as we had the AC on. But, it still burnt lopped without AC on later.

    Not only hard/different, on the candle testing, on para vs soy, but the picture taking with different camera and photo program. Soon as I took camera out, my dogs (photo hogs, both of them) were like "oooh..mom taking pictures and immediately assumed it was of them).

    But, gotta tell ya, that green candle, with the scent (spring breeze aka downy aka something else)..it was almost overpowering at first, but trimmed wick and let set for several days, and boy..is just so crisp and fresh smelling.

  2. I did para candles for years and then switched to soy this year. It IS harder than looks.

    For anyone thinking being a chandler is easy..forget it.

    My "good looking" candles ("pretty")" don't have great burn, and my bad lookin' ones..have superb burn, lol.)

    Then, they decide to switch tactics. A cpuple times.

    Since I've never posted any such here..here we go.

    It is truly trial and learn. This is my creamy yum yum candle that wafted scent all over the house, but mushroomed so bad.

    Gosh, it smelled so good, as long as you kept the wick trim. ANd, didn't mind a mushroom like the Hiroshima bombing.

  3. Probably sound stupid, but I called mine "Sniffers' when I made them.

    That included ones that hung from car interior, windows, or closets or whatever. People would call me and say, "Hey, you have any new Sniffers?" and I knew what they meant, hence, that became the name of them.

    I quit making them couple years ago, never TM'd it, so you're welcome to it, lol. My hang tag had picture I drew of a happy nose "sniffing".

    Like you, I hated the word Ornies. Always made me think of being mean, agrumentive, ornery, or something.

    What type are you making?
