Daaang... I pay $500/yr for liability thru Safeco and thought I was getting ripped off... I guess it could be even worse. And I always had the impression that State Farm was supposed to be affordable.. Edit: Duh, My coverage is only 100,000, that would explain the lower price, probably.

Thanks for your suggestions, it's been really helpful! The Ecosoya PB is on its way. The candle that cracked the glass was a store-bought votive, I don't remember the brand.

Thanks! I'll be giving Ecosoya PB a try ASAP! Yes, They are mostly for my own personal use... [especially until I get my formulas right, lol!] I burn a lot of candles! I have lots of old glass votive cups, the kind that the votive candle fits into perfectly with no extra space. My theory on using container wax was: since the candle is totally enclosed in glass, it functions as a mini container candle. Store-bought votives have shattered a few of my candleholders in the past, I was thinking the MP was too high/ hot for that 50 year-old hobnail glass. Thanks for your help!

-Tried Golden Soy GW415, it was dang near impossible to get the candles out of the molds. Kind of a nightmare! -Tried Ecosoya CB Advanced, the candles looked good but the scent throw was only 'meh'. Should I use a pillar blend?? I like the idea of lower MP waxes for my votives, seems like the candle would burn cooler and be less likely to crack my cute vintage glass votive cups. Any thoughts on this?? If there's already a thread for this, could someone direct me to it? (I'm new.) Thanks Lorraine
