sent you an email with pics

Ok....where did I go wrong.....I used 1 cup beads to 1/4 cup scent........one fo (soapy clean) was dry in a week.....the OTHER two (Little Black Dress and Pink Sugar) are STILL not dry after two weeks......I added another 1/2 cup of beads......a week later.....still not dry............anyone have a ratio for using a CUP of beads and how much fo?

nevermind.......only a message page from HER pages of excuses........dang it! it really gripes me when I wait around for an order, and have other things waiting on THAT order..........turns out, I could have ordered EVERYTHING from another site, instead I didn't get 1/2 the stuff coz i had already ordered here. Arrrrghhhhh

This is equally as interesting.........i may start a new post on her yahoo group page..............as well as report her to yahoo stores. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/candleandsoapstuff/messages

Wow.......how could she have people who haven't paid....when you have to pay for your order and your credit card approved BEFORE she ships the order? I think her bad debt page is as phoney as her customers review page.....I emailed and told her to cancel my order, not to dare try to charge my credit card, and thanked her for leaving me hanging for two weeks, not knowing what was going on.....I also suggested since she has kept the same excuses for so long that she change them, or better yet, stop taking HONEST people's money and close the damned site down. She still hasn't emailed or called me back! lol

Thanks everyone.....I tried to search before hand, but must have typed something wrong, didn't see the warnings........thankfully, I put it on my credit card, so I had better not be charged and can get it reversed if I am....but I will email and tell her nevermind and to cancel since she can't respond. (not sure she reads them, maybe just doesn't RESPOND to them). Thanks again all!!!

Anyone ordered from here?........I placed an order on May 3, and haven't heard anything, (past the acknowledgement) nor gotten any response to emails. I called and left message on answering machine....just wondered if anyone knows anything about them or if they are still in business or ? Thanks!

I can help you with #2...... IF your image has white in it.....and it's going onto a candle that is NOT white is the only time you should need the white decal paper.....and you need to trim the paper away as close to your image as possible, remember the white left on the decal will show up on your candle.

Thanks Sherri, I was afraid of that! lol

what color is it, from KY?

I make my own water slide decals using an image I chose, then printed on decal paper from my ink jet printer. Almost any graphics program will let you add text to your image if you want that, as well as resize, brighten, etc. Be sure to follow the instructions to seal the image once you've printed it (spray with Krylon), cut your image out, then soak in warm water then slide your decal onto your item. They sell both white and clear decal paper because if your image has white in it, (an ink jet printer can't print white) IF your object to receive the decal is white, then you can still use the clear paper. Personally, I prefer to use the clear whenever possible because with the white, your decal will show white anywhere you didn't trim close enough to the edge. I haven't done them on the particular candles you are referring to, so if there are more tricks, maybe someone who has can jump in and help you out. I just thought I'd toss you the basics. HTH

I would say the scent is partly to blame for discoloring your marshmallows.....at least that always been the case for me. I have to use a scent that is completely clear to keep that bright white color. I like to scent my food candles pretty close to what they actually ARE, but this is one of those cases, where I haven't found a clear toasted marshmallow, so I have had to settle for a dull white at least for now. I have scented my marshmallows toasted marshmallow and they don't stay BRIGHT white, but they are still more white than yellow. I purchased a "whipped cream" scent that I had hoped to use (was told it was clear but turns out the supplier meant clear but not in color?!), but it came in a dark yellow and I can't use it (at least for white items) because of it.

Please say you are just kidding.........

Just for the record.....Peeps lawyers sent quite a few letters as well. I know of one in particular, wanting 7500.00 from a mold maker.....she quit making the peeps, offered refunds to those who bought the molds if they would send them back, and the lawyers have dropped it.

I have literally hundreds of stamps I'm going to be selling....with the tall wooden handles........I don't know what all is in there, quit scrapbooking a long time ago and they've been stored. What exactly are you looking for a stamp of and I'll see if I have it.

how many are you looking for?

Can't help you with the supplier......but just wanted to tell you that was one of the BEST family vacations we EVER had when i was growing up....going to Hot Springs Arkansas...staying at a little motel right on Lake Hamilton and water skiing and having the time of our lives for two weeks. Beautiful place, enjoy!!!

I scented mine Baby Powder (yeah, i know, real original) and tied pink and blue curly ribbon around the necks of the lids.....came out very cute and made adorable favors....altho the girl elected to give them as "prizes" for the games since they were a little pricey, due to the bottles.

I got my little glass baby bottles from babies r us about 4 years ago....but i bought a bunch and haven't needed any more for awhile, so I don't know if they still have them. According to my notes, the zinc 44 worked perfectly on my tested one, everyone from the shower insisted they weren't going to burn theirs tho. I definately wouldn't use plastic, not with a wick! hth

You might try using a spoon and dropping small dollops around .....it's next to impossible to do it thru a bag, altho I have done it. Takes several bags, and the end result just isn't worth it. Also a dollop mold might be something you'd be interested in. JMO

I just used the scent straight......no mixing.......hth

Totally agree......I spray mine with a small spray bottle....works perfectly and MUCH faster with the same results!
