It sells good in soap, never made a candle.I also mix it with patchouli for perfume rollers and call it sweet patchouli.
-
I love NG French lavender in candles.
-
Looking for a good lavender FO for 464 soy wax. Thank you
-
I use, lavender,grapefruit ,peppermint,bergamot and chamomile EO in lip balm, no problems.
-
I'm trying to wick a RE marijuana FO candle in a mason jar.I went up to a HTP 1212 wick and hardly get a melt pool, super low flame. The CD 14 same thing.I use 464 Golden soy, no color. Did anybody try to wick that FO ?
-
I wait 3 to 4 days for the first test burn, like right now, I'm burning Santa's whiskers,warm vanilla nutmeg and salsa cranberry from RE and it is amazing,cold and hot throw.But I had candles not giving me a HT at all, like Essence of Jesus from RE and I was bummed, because the CT is so nice.After 2 weeks, I gave it another try and turned out to be a great HT.I'm curing a patchouli saffron+patchouli EO candle and for that I'm waiting patiently a few more days.

My friend is making beany bags, using sport teams (fabric) from various teams. Does she needs a permission from these teams to make these bags?
-
I'm thinking to get a wine cutting machine, to make recycled wine tumblers.I'm in love with the look. Are any of you, making those ? What do you think?
-
I'm in love with WSP sugared spruce.But they are so outrageously expensive, I really like RE FO's as well.They also have a sugared spruce.Anybody has any input maybe how they compare ?
-
I have just discovered RE a while ago and I'm already in love and going to be broke. So far I have used Celtic moonspice lemon verbena toasted marshmallow apples & oats ( love this one!) lilac for candles testing xmas bliss xmas past macintosh apple amish quilt ( smells almost exactly like celtic moonspice) sea kelp ( love it OOB)
-
Thank you.
-
The melt pool was good,I have three different candle FO burning,same thing,the jar candles have a way better HT than the tins.Maybe I have to use a higher % for the tins.
-
I made a 14 oz candle and a 6 oz tin,proportional same FO and wick appropriate for the containers.The 14 oz great HT,but not the 6oz tin,what could that be,wrong wick ?
-
I started testing my 464 soy wax with great success,I use them in 16 oz blue mason jars,but only fill them up 14 oz.I use 10% FO, most of them from Rustic Escentuals.Great HT,CT with HTP 104 & 105 wicks.I let the test candles cure between 2 or 3 days.The 6 oz tins right now are testing for HTP 105 and CD 12.Will see.
-
Thank you
-
How do you figure out, when to use more than one wick?
-
Wondering,since I have never sold candles to the public,what do people like ? Are baking FO's desirable all year around ?
-
I tested 104 and 105 HTP wicks for GW 464 ( 16 oz mason jar) .They both perform the same,should I go with the 104 smaller one?
-
My house smell pretty darn goo right now
-
Thanks,I'm making candles on and off for many years,but never sold them.I was terrified of the testing,but now I have received my 500 jars and I need to test.
-
I'm back to candle making and started testing.If I make 16 oz candle, do I have to test for the full amount of 16 oz or can I use less, to not have so much wax wasted ? I tested two candles already and burnt them 4 times for 4 hours each time and still have plenty of wax left. Thank you.
-
I'm testing 6 oz tins, I love the size between 4 and 8 oz.I'm testing HTP 83 and I think I have to go a size bigger, I'm using Golden 464 soy.
-
Hi,I'm back making candles. I was wondering any good suggestions for wicks for the Golden 464 soy wax in 6 oz tins? I'm about to order.I have the Eco 10's already, trying some CSN 14's, maybe go up one wick on ECO 10, since I use higher FO's %. Thank you and I'm excited
-
I wanted to get the 10 sampler from MC, I just read they want you to use 1.5 oz instead of the 1 oz, is it true or can I just stick with the 1 oz and still get the same result??? Thanks Marion:yay:

Looking for a nice fresh cut grass scent for soy candles, also cucumber melon kind, and a nice lemon scent. Thanks
