I have never received any boxes with the name of the wax on the outside box. But I don't know if that would bother me so much. I think the UPS or FedEx workers are too busy to care about what kind of wax is coming to my house. Luckily I live out in the country so there are no neighbors close enough to see what is sitting by my door.
Jars are very hard to find right now. Most suppliers are out of stock and when they do get some in they are snatched up in a few minutes. I hope for all of us chandlers out there it gets better very soon.
When I tried the RRDs the wicks turned into huge carbon balls. Sometimes so bad the flame would go out. That was at 6% FO. Maybe playing with the FO percentage might help.
WHAT THE H**L!!!! Thanks a bunch CS! I just went to order some and they are out of stock. I did get some CSN7s. I guess I will have to order from the UK!!!!
They have some really good fragrances. I use Fraiser Fir, Cracklin' Birch, Farmhouse Christmas, Sweet Grace and I have a few samples I made for testing but letting them cure.
I tried Gooseberry Gardens in palm wax and it was not too bad. It filled up my medium size bedroom but I don't think it would fill up a larger space. It smells just like the name says....a berry scent. I got a sniffie of the River Birch and it smells good OOB but have not put it in wax yet.
I never tried the Raspberry Blitz.
I saw they have a few new FOs but have not tried them yet. Vanilla Voodoo is good but it's not a hit you in the face FO. More subtle for me in palm wax.
I like Tall Grass from Keystone. It used to be a Peak oil. I have to up the percentage a little for the HT but it works. It is not a big seller in my area but the ones that like it really like it.
I am still in the process of using up the old ones, but they are now gone. I have to start making candles again next week ans will be using them. I will post my opinion I guess. Lol!
I have this same problem with palm wax candles. I start them out at 1/8 inch and tell all of my customers to trim to 1/8 inch. They work a lot better that way.
If I remember right you have to be a member for a week and have a certain amount of posts under your belt before you can get in to the Classifieds forum. My numbers might be wrong. It have been so long.
I do not make lotions or any other type of bath and body product. But I do buy them. Once in a while I will buy a bottle of lotion and as time goes on and I get towards the bottom of the container the lotion gets very runny and doesn't seem to work as good. And sometimes it will not be every container from the same maker.
Can someone tell me why this happens?
Thank you.
I have been painting all of my jar covers for a while because I could not find a cover I liked. I'm pretty picky. I finally found one but they only come with pulp & poly liners. I can pry them out with a knife but it would be a lot easier just to leave them in.
My question is, would the liner eventually suck the scent out of the wax? It never touches the wax but I'm wondering if it will cause long term problems with that.
Does anyone here have any experience with something like this?
TIA
Thank you for letting us know about the new coffee. I was worried about that one. I sell that stuff by the pot full 😄 and I was hoping it would be the same.
