  1. Welcome to the addiction!!! You can forget about the budget though. You will find your self buying fo's, wax, wicks...ect and before you know it, your in the hole. But at least you will be happy. Happy waxing!
  2. I loved the trinket boxes and that rose pillar candle was beautiful!
  3. I love the colors of the candles. Don't worry about the dip if she likes it, it's ok!
  4. They really look like you could eat them!
  5. Welcome to the board! You will find lots of helpful people and info on here!
  6. I really like the color of the candle. It makes the sign stick out!
  7. That's a great job for you first time at doing waves!!! I especially like the slanted green candles that you did. Nice job!
  8. I love it!!!! I think it has a zen feel to it.
  9. hello, fellow newbie. Hope you enjoy the board. Sorry, though I can't help you out with suppliers, since I live in the states. But I'm sure someone will come along...
  10. welcome...sounds like you have one foot in the door already. But I'm sure you'll find a multitude of info on here. I'm still new but I'm absorbing all of it like a sponge.
  11. well if I can do this right are two pics showing you what I am talking about...thanks tess and scented for the replies tess....I think you are right about the fo....that's kinda what I was thinking but I figured I'd ask the guru's first...so here are those pics....
  12. my camera has low batteries so I need to go get more today...so I will post pics of what I mean later....maybe that would help? thanks...
  13. those candles are amazing....someday I hope to make something so pretty
  14. I mixed at about 170 f ....I think it was the fo but I'm not sure...I thought I mixed in both pretty well...but like I said...all most all of the color went to the bottom of the candle and the rest was green instead of blue I poured at a little under 175 the melting point of the wax was 128f and it said not to pour over 175 maybe I poured to hot?
  15. well...here goes the questions....I was just making my second candle with scent and color and it seperated ....most of the color was on the bottom and the candle was green instead of blue....so it was as if it was only 1/2 colored what happened....I will admit...for right now till I get a prepay credit card I'm using the yales wax and the fo was from early american candle supplies scent tobacco...now when I poured in the scent it was thick and colored tan....I tried to mix it in as well as I can...personally I think it was the fo...I only used 8oz of wax and 1/2 oz of fo....please help me to understand what happened
  16. hopefully I did this message right...still trying to get used to the layout of the board...thanks for all of the warm welcomes..wow there is ALOT of info on this board....I loved the q&a little ditty and the walk throughs are great....
  17. Well, I'm a complete newbie to candle making. I've only made a total of 5 candles so far. I wanted to keep it simple at first by only making 3 non scented, non colored candles. Then I got the hunger for more and made 2 colored and scented candles. They turned out ok...but they certainly are not Yankee candle level yet. I have completely caught the addiction bug on this craft. I'm in love! I have to warn you, there will be lots of questions to all you guru's out there, but I will try to read, read, read, before asking anything. So there it is.....
