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
