Is palm stronger than soy?

Yes when you burn them.

Soy, Palm or a mix of soy and paraffin? Right now I am using ecosoya cb 135 and I'm not happy with the results, scent and lots of frosting. I'm wondering if I should experiment with different kinds of waxes?

I make 16 oz containers with my own blend of parasoy that burn all the way down with no hangup or soot buildup. I really love the clean burn I get. But that only comes from lots of testing.

I've used both waxes and love the parasoy blend the best. Great throw, clean burn, no tunneling or wax hangup, couldn't ask for more.

What is the blend that you made?

How did you make the label?

I'm starting to venture in the wholesale world, would anyone mind sharing with me what they put in there packets and any sample letters? Thanks

They sell real well for me.

How do you package them? I'm trying to get ideas like how to attach the reeds to the bottles. I use boston rounds and 12 in reeds.

Really, I just ordered the base from WSP I usually would order from Peak's but they just raised there prices and it's not worth it with the shipping for me.

Does the advance resist to frosting? I use CB135 and hate the frosting.

I'm just so happy because now that will help me save on shipping with other stores.

I use inkjet. Does it matter if it's inkjet or laser?

I get mine from labels by the sheet too.

I use the clear ones too and I've let them sit for a day or too and mine still smudge.

How does everyone do their labels without having to spend lots of money on minimum orders? I'd love to see your label if you wouldn't mind posting a pic. I keep wanting to change my idea but I don't know what's the most cost effective. I've ordered plain clear ones to print on my computer but then I have to by the clear spray to coat the labels so the ink won't smudge.

I think you can use it for embossing too. I bought mine at Michael's with their 50% off coupon.

Candle Science

If you have an AC Moore or craft store around you they usually have a 40 or 50% off coupon in the paper or on there site, if you go to there store you can put it towards those. They have electric and tealight ones. I'm not sure if you want to buy in larger quanities though. You can always have friends or family help you.

I used sweet pea.

What do you use now?

Anything I should change?

How do you shrink wrap without melting the wax?

Here is a place that sells silver lids. This is just one they have a whole section.
