  1. Hello everyone,I haven't been on the board in awhile.I decided to make soap again yesterday,it been awhile since I made any.I made three batches.uncovered them this morning,two of the batches is covered with oily water.:confused:What did I do wrong or what do I need to do with it?Thanks
  2. I am looking for a good Redneck Christmas.I have the RC from Starville,have try it in 6006and the wax that Starville sells.,there's no hot throw in either wax.Help please. Thanks,Anna
  3. That's the wax I use.I get it from Starville's.It burns and wick just like the old J50.It gets wet spots,but they don't brother me,I learned to live with them.It is a one pour wax.HTH Ann

    Hi,I made some clamshell,and the scent dosen't last more than a day.I have some of Scentsy's clamshells,and they last forever.Tell me if I'm doing something wrong.This is my formula 4-clamshells,4ozs votive wax 5.35ozs parffin 1.10 fo-10% fo load Thanks,ann
  9. I have'nt posted in a long,but read every day almost.I was reading a thread about Candlescience fo's,so I decided to order some sample's.Very Vanilla is best I every tried.Hansel and Gretels House,I could almost drinked the bottle,and when I got it in wax it was wonderful. Red Hot Cinn-very good Baby Powder-very good Pineapple Coconut-can't get it wicked right Mango Papaya-fair I use 4630 wax,and 16oz apoth jars. Anna
  10. Thank you for your recipe,it turn out great. anna
  11. Thanks Deb,if you didn't,I want.I have never made GM soap.
  12. I want to try this recipe.My question is when you put the soap in the fridge to keep it from overheating,do you cover it with any thing?Thanks!
  13. No curing here.I use J50.Make them,let them set up,and burn.
  14. Yes it was a glass container,I called myself inspecting all my jar.It could have had been dropped after it left me.Thank goodness it wasn't burning.
  15. My GD called and told me one of my candles exploded.The strange thing is it wasn't burning.It hasn't been burned in three days.She said the house was cold,so she turned the heat up.and the vent was blowing on the jar.could this have cause this.Thanks
  16. I use J50 for years,and have always use 8% with no problem.HTH Sorry never used 9%.
  17. Thanks for the replys,I love J50,and I get it locally with no shipping.J50 used to not do this.Last night I made candles,and when the top set up,I took the wick holders off,that seemed to help with the shrinking. Anna
  18. J50,are you having a lot of shrinkage when the jar has set up.I am having to use the heat gun on every container,then it's at least 1/2 inch below the pour line.I don't know what to do.I guess I could save some wax and do a second pour. Using the heat gun on every container is alot of work,and time.I need some suggestions. Thanks,Anna
  19. Yes it is very overwhelming,and confusing.Sometimes I wish I didn't have a tax #.I'm just a small operation.
  20. I sold the candles wholesale to a business,don't they have to pay the tax on them.I have a sales and use tax resale certificate,I believe they have to fill out to prove I sold the candles wholesale.What I want to know after they fill it out,do I keep it,or do I mail it in?
  21. This question has probley been asked before,I searched and couldn't find the answer.I just got a wholesale account and I have a resale certificate.Do I get the business that bought from me fill it out,then what do I do with it?Does this mean I want have to pay sales tax on the supplies I bought with my Tax l.D? Thanks,Anna
  22. Shellybean do you spray them before you print,or after?I am using Avery label #8665,inkjet.Thanks for the help.
  23. I hope this is the right place to post.I have always ordered my labels,now I want to try and make them myself.I bought the full sheet clear matte labels,and printed my labels on them.They turned out really nice.My DH was helping me,and wipe accross one of the labels and all the ink came off.What do I need to do to keep the ink from coming off?What is the weather proof labels? I hope this make sense. Anna
  24. Thanks guys for your help.She said it was find to put my email on them,but my email is my name,not my candles name.Now I have got to change my email.
  25. The owner of a gift shop,that is in a city across the river from me wants to sell my candles.On my labels I have my email address,town and city,and my Phone number.She don't want any that on them.The reason being,we live in a small town,and people don't support local people.What has to be on a label? Thanks,Anna
