    I craft mainly for my own use but do sell tarts and votives at our local flea market.

  1. I don't pour batches of tealights, just one or two when I have overpour and I just use my votive wick pins.
  2. I am looking for a source for chime candle molds, these are 4 x 1/2 inch candles. I've done some pretty extensive searching and have not found what I need so any help would be greatly appreciated!
  3. I get twenty standard sized tarts using these molds from SC http://www.candlescience.com/molds/tart-mold/ using one pound of KY tart wax and one ounce of fragrance oil. I think the size of the mold you use will determine how much wax you will need to finish the job.
  4. I cannot find the melts on the site, what are they listed under?
  5. I've been a wow addict since the game started, it won't take him long or many bribes to get you there too!
  6. Liquid dye is the best for me to keep colors consistent. Just count the drops.
  7. That was a great interview. Love your shop and your work!
  8. I just buff the extra wax and fingerprints off with an old nylon stocking. Quick and easy.
  9. I wish i could afford to try that many! But don't worry...the customers will want you to make the ones you don't care for just to stink up your kitchen!
  10. I'm getting Jackel motorsports from that address. Though that looks fun too!
  11. Is your melt pool too deep while burning so there is little unmelted wax left to support the wick?
  12. Careful, she is measuring temp in Celsius. 175F is equal to about 79.4 Celsius. Yes she is too cool (149F) but I'd hate to see the fire if she tried to go to 175C! How much too cool would depend on the type of wax she is using. What temp are you mixing the fragrance oil in?
