I know this sounds crazy, but go smell Sensual Amber by Bath & Body Works and smell Twilight Woods, I think they are very close and might actually be the same, just renamed!!

I placed an order about 2 weeks into December, never heard a thing. I've tried to e-mail her about the order, and no response to that e-mail. I'm sorry if she is having problems, but it would be nice to at least know. Perhaps if she would at least post something on her website then we would know.

Hi Everybody, I have a huge problem and need your help. I usually use Fresh and Clean from Heartfelt Candle Supply, had a little left and tried to order from her and she is out of stock (not marked on the website) and she doesn't know when she is getting it back in. My dilemma is that I have a fundraiser that has ordered it and I need to finish up with this fundraiser. Does anybody know of any supplier that has something very close to her Fresh and Clean that I could substitute? If not, does anybody have any Fresh and Clean from Heartfelt that they are willing to part with so I can finish this fundraiser up? Thanks so much. Shelley

I use soy 415 and bought my Glass Glow Palm Wax from Candle Science. I wasn't sure if anybody was adding any additional additives such as cottonseed oil, coconut oil, etc. I'm planning on trying to do a blend of 90% soy and 10% palm to see what these look like. As far as looks, the jar had what looked like major frosting (but of course I know this comes from the palm), but not just frosting all over, big areas of frost, then other areas looked pretty good. The melts ended up having more the look of palm wax in the clamshells but not all the way palm wax look. Boy, did that make any sense!! My overall goal is to try and get a good looking candle, if possible, out of this. Any help would be really appreciated. Shelley

Hi There, I've been making candles soy blend for about 7 years now and wanted to try the palm/soy mixed. Well last night I tried 80% soy 20% palm and this morning the jar looks terrible. The melts don't look much better. Could anybody give me advice on if they blend and how it went for them. I'm wondering if there are other addivitives you use. Thanks so much for any help. Shelley

I have great luck with her Sweet Pumpkin Pie, Fresh and Clean and Apple Danish. Love her oils. Shelley

If you are happy with the HTP, I would perhaps try the HTP83 or HTP104. Depending on your fo, one of these should work. HTH Shelley

Chele, Thanks for your input on this. I've been at this for 7 years and been using soy/joy for 4 years and at my wit's end. Besides the fact that the joy is now up to $81 a box, the inconsistencies are too many to keep the ratio the same each time. I'm glad to hear that you are trying something else with soy. I'm planning on starting the testing after the holiday season is over and any information I obtain, I'll be glad to pass on. Shelley

I have those same containers for Christmas. I use soy but I use 2 HTP104s and they burn is perfect. After 3 hours I have a perfect melt pool. HTH Shelley

Thanks everybody for your help, BCN sounds great to me!! Shelley

Hi Everyone, I have a customer wanting the fragrance that smells like the Red Hot Cinnamon candies. I see that KY Candle Wax has it and Tennessee Candle Supplies does. Does anybody have any recommendations on this? TIA Shelley

Hi Everybody, I'm probably in the same boat as alot of you out there that use Bluegrass FOs. I'm in desperate need of their Hot Blueberry Muffins and of course they are out of stock of it and we certainly all know we don't know when things are coming back in. Does anybody have any input as to who has a great Blueberry Muffins that can compete with theirs. TIA Shelley

Here is an idea, although I live in Michigan but I've shipped to California and Tennessee and haven't had any problems with this. Go to any of your local veterinarians or perhaps doctors. When they get medicines in their office that have to be refrigerated they come in a styrofoam cooler that is inside of a cardboard box. They end up throwing these away in my area, so I just take them and use them for that. I do know that the boxes I can get aren't extremely big, but so far I've never had a problem with anything melting. HTH. Shelley

Hi Everybody, I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. I have a group that wants to use 4th of July theme for a fundraiser. Besides doing the usual, red,white and blue layered candle, does anybody have any ideas as to what I could do with this? I've been searching for 4th of July containers, so far no luck, then tried star containers, still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Shelley

I never do anything special with them besides package them up in my workshop which is in the basement and a little cooler!! Hope you are able to find some and that they will work for you. Shelley
