  1. Thanks guys for the for the info...I'm wondering about the white tea and ginger is that a good one?
  2. Anyone know where to find this frgance oil? Thanks
  3. Thanks for all of your ideas!! I will give it a try
  4. Thanks Ladysj...I was thinking I could make a bunch of different colors up and use them as I go or get orders...I guess your scent throw would not be as good with just the over pour...again thanks!!
  5. Greetings!! I'd like to know when making chunk candles do you all fragrance oil to the chunks or the over pour or both...Thanks!
  6. Are you talking about the same coconut oil they use to pop popcorn? Thanks
  7. If you use paraffin 1 pound=16oz in weight when melted approx 20 oz. If you use 1 pound of soy wax= approx 18 oz melted. So say the paraffin wax can hold 7% of fragrance then why couldn't an 8oz candle hold 7% fragrance...I realize that the 7% is for the entire pound...but I have been experimenting and I can now say that even my light fragrances which I couldn't get a very good cold or hot throw now are some of my best sellers...and I don't have any leakage of oil in the bottom or the sides of the candle. So go figure&^*(&^. Thanks for all of your replys I was just trying to get everyones sense on this because i know the standard 1oz of fragrance oil per pound....and some waxes can withstand higher %'s. But I wanted to get your take on this calculation. Thanks again for all the replies!!
  8. Would you be overloading the wax is you took say 8oz of wax add 7% fragrance oil ? 8oz times 7%=.56 fragrance/ 1LB of wax would yield 20oz...now take 20oz at 7%=1.4 fragrance...do you seen what I mean? Anybody
  9. Are you using parrafin or soy...Parrafin will give you 20 OZ soy will give you 18oz....did I miss something?
