  1. Maybe it's just me, but I didn't have much luck with the one from LS. I was disappointed because I know many others get great results. I had to cure it for about 2 weeks, and even then, only got a medium hot throw. I use 6006 at 6% with usually a 3-4 day cure.

  2. I've been thinking about mixing chocolate with caramel apple ... my friend makes chocolate covered caramel apples and they smell and taste delicious!

    S&S and Brandied Pear sounds very nice, never thought of mixing those two; think I'll make a tester today, thanks for the idea!

  3. Bear Claws ... bears live in the woods, maybe something like Sugared Spruce or another woodsy scent

    Doggone Delightful ... a beach/ocean scent (my dog loves to run on the beach and play in the water - I like Cactus & Sea Salt)

    Berry Berry Bunny - Fresh Picked Strawberries or Champagne & Strawberries

    Cotton Tail - Pink Sugar or Lavender Laundry

    Chocolate Chip-munk - Turtle Brownies

    Monkey Magic/Monkey Madness - Monkey Farts

  4. I use alot of CS scents, but the strongest for me are ...

    Cranberry Marmalade

    Mistletoe

    Bayberry

    Macintosh

    Pumpkin Souffle

    Holly Berry

    Scotch Pine

    Lemon Verbena

    Fresh Coffee (a great mixer)

    Brandied Pear

    Love Spell

    Juniper Breeze, Gardenia, Rose, Honeysuckle Jasmine, Plumeria

  5. I've been playing around with CS's Warm Vanilla Sugar trying to come up with some unique and awesome combos.

    In the past, I've mixed it with Lemon and also with Peach ... both are very nice, but I'm looking for some new "tried and true" blends. Last night I mixed Bayberry with WVS ... great holiday scent.

    Just wondering what you guys mix it with that sells well. TIA.

  7. I use the one from The Candle Source, sorry, I should have posted that, it's a great mixer for me. Here's another nice mix ... Pumpkin Souffle (CS) and Spiced Cranberry (I use the one from ME, but you can use the one that you have) ... I call it Holiday Pumpkin.

  8. Adding a bit of Pumpkin Brulee to BW's Honey Gingerbread really kicked it up a notc for me. To a pound of wax I used .1 PB and .9 HG. It still smells like Honey Gingerbread with a little punch to it ... to my nose it's stronger too. I'm even thinking that a ratio of .2 PB to .8 HG might work really well.

    I want to add that my Pumpkin Souffle (CS) and Pumpkin Brulee mix is still my best selling pumpkin candle. I use 6006 with 6% fo.

  9. Another name for Bayberry is Candleberry ... you could go with that.

    Also, the scent description for Boston Tea Party is ... "freshly brewed iced tea with lemon" ... possible names could be ...

    Tea with Lemon or Iced Tea with Lemon

    Lemon Tea or Iced Lemon Tea
