  1. Someone gave me a slab and they said it was 12 years old
  2. I did one this past weekend and didnt do to well, well maybe okay considering the people but it was still disappointing. Got a big one coming up Saturdayso hopefully that will go better.
  3. This place is close to me so I hate to buy it from anywhere else. TIA
  4. If you use this wax, what are your thoughts? I went to Natures garden and wanted some parasoy wax and this is what she suggested and sold me. Its very buttery, how is it to make tarts out of? What do you use this wax for? TIA
  5. Its some soy wax, I buy a 35 pound brick and use that. The muffin tins I purchased at $1 store as well Im not going to sell them individually I dont think.
  6. Also I put them in heat shrink bags them so they are packaged. I put warning labels one's bottom and will be making labels for them as well.
  7. Here are my firestarters I will be taking to a craft show that generally gets aroun 800 people walking through. Ive made 50 sets of six like this. Lotsa of them xmasy, red and green. Do you think I can get MAYBE $5 a set for these? Ive never sold them before and hopefully there will be an interest. Now also do you think I should make more as well? I plan to do some other craft shows as well. Thanks
  8. Okay, well I surely thank you for your help, I appreciate it. At least now I know I have container wax and can do wickless containers and just do baby steps. Thanks again, you have been great!
  9. Yes, so far Ive made tarts, firestarters, and electric candles. Now when you say put it in tin as wickless, are you referring to the small tin containers? I have not ventured into container candles thus far, I think Im scared of messing up and getting flustered. Any easy container candle I can make, I have a glass container for a candle and I also have some jars for candles. My biggest problem is I dont know anything about wicks at all and I know its all about testing, testing, testing.......
  10. I just got off the phone from lonestar and the wax is paraffin 4786 Im a little disappointed - thats container wax. Can you make tarts with this wax??? If not I may have to sell it.
  11. I answered a craigslist ad for wax and candle supplies - the ad stated 35 lbs which turned out to be actually 50, the box said 60 pounds. I noted it was from lonestar candle company, now on their web site I only see soy granulated, did they use to sell pure soy by the slab, its soft and cuttable. I also got thermos, wicks, big spool of wicking, pour pots, liquid dye, glass containers, and other items for $35
  12. Yes im planning to do that anyways. Maybe I should just forget about colored flame unless it'll last long
  13. Like 1 minute? 5 minutes? ten minutes? Im trying to figure out if it would be worth it for an xmas craft show
