  1. lip balm containers .. that the lid .. slides open not the metal ones .. I teach a class every year at my daughters school bath n body or candles .. this yr is bath n body .. i'd also like some for my school's xmas show that i do an i can not find any .. when doing a search all i can find is the metal sliptins for lipbalm/gloss my kids loved the ease of opening them for the beads that it comes with so i wanted to make them with lipbalm for my class and show .. but having a bugger of a time finding them
  2. i've never had a problem with silicone molds and M&P i use http://flexiblemolds.com for all my silicone needs .. ginger is FABULOUS
  3. oooooooh i love fragrances of maine:yay:
  4. you can try a lil modge podge gloss see if that works maybe? just enought to cover the decal outter edges of the decal
  5. I never heard of dipping hurricanes i always made them solid one scent
  6. this is the wick i used for baby jars Heinz Pretabbed 1.5" CD-3 found as www.candlesandsupplies.com
  7. I am wanting to start doing that again .. after many months of failing an giving up .. over 2 yrs ago .. i want to get back to trying I would love to see some already made if you have pics of them
  8. thank you .. i have an order to place with WSP so i'll tack on a small oz of the oil .. hope its good .
  9. A true strawberry scent .. nothing added .. like cream or vanilla notes or anything else i want to make my mom some candles an she loves that smell ,, i hate it .. only cause every place i have tried .. all strawberry oils smell like gasoline ! its made me never want to make it again nor does my mom want me to but i told her about this group an they might be able to help, that their wealth of knowledge is mind blowing lol so if i can get a good one .. she wants more candles in strawberry thank you in advanced edit to add: i've tried ICS, C&C and BCN & S, SOS and NG so far
  10. After i melt the wax .. i always let it cool down by 10 degree's an never had a problem with the scent not throwing or incorping to the wax.. if you add the oil at to high a temp it can burn the oil thus ruining it an you may as well throw that batch away kinda found out the hard way on that one and wont do it again.
  11. I LOVE where it says in that artile to "put yankee to shame":laugh2: :laugh2:
  12. YEA !!! A BABY BUN !!! :yay: its a start ! i can't wait till my supplies get here so i can start rolling out the "dough" lol
  13. I should have mentioned that it took me almost 6 months to get it right .. but fear not .. its not wasted wax .. just keep remelting an try try again .. you'll get the hang of it .. if you keep trying .. patients is a virtue with this project.. something i lack BIGTIME! but in the end .. its worth the 6 months of practice it took me
  14. Maybe try a new supplier ? i like www.saveonscents.com i think thats it .. their omh scent is fabulous .. i'm addicted to it used in MP goats milk soap
  15. www.bittercreek.com sells them
  16. This is my way of testing scent throw .. an it may sound odd lol when i made a candle or tart .. I would let it cure for about 4 days before using it .. sometimes longer for weaker lighter scents but i would test in my basement light it .. close the basement door .. sit upstairs an just wait .. if i could smell it strong enough on the first floor .. i would move up to the second floor an hang out up there for a while .. folding laundry to pass the time lol .. if i could smell it still from the second floor .. i'd move on to the last level .. the attic .. my daughters bedroom .. and just straiten up her room while i waited for the scent to follow me up there. eventually it did on most hard sccents .. cinnamon esp. that goes far .. ones like vanilla/s and chocolates didnt quite hit the attic but did second floor this is my way of testing .. its quite odd to say the least .. but i know in my gingerbreasd style small house but TALL house .. if i could get scent to throw to the attic .. i done good lol all in all it took the cinnamon an spice scents about 2 hours to hit the attic
  17. I use ICS clammshells all the time .. never had a smelly problem with them or any clamshells that i have ordered
  18. Oh .. ty very much .. even saving as few bucks lol
