  1. I really like the jigsaw pyramid pillar. I love the blue pillar as well. The little seashells look so cute. Makes me want to go to the beach. I'm so ready for the warmer weather.
  2. I know how u feel. I think everyone gets in a funk from time to time. But it only makes it that much more bitter sweet when u come out of it.
  3. It looks great. I love all the colors neutrals are my thing. The way you have everything organized just really works as well. "Great Job"
  4. I don't hate it its OK. It too is one of my best sellers. I can't stand Cucumber Melon. "GAG" I use to love it before I had my daughter. But when I became pregnant with her it made me sick to even be around the smell. For some reason it still makes me sick.
  5. Glad to hear about a sale. Just bought about 11 different fo last month. I have had great success with all that I have put in my wax so far.
  6. I think it looks very nice, and easy to navigate. I will bookmark it for future use. I'm finally getting ready to start a website myself.
  7. They are really pretty. I like them alot. They also match very well with the wall color.
  8. Please do!! That sounds very interesting.
  9. Same here after a year I have finally found the perfect wax blend. I'm still testing wicks. There is no way I would go through all that testing again.
  10. I use the 50/50 as well. But I'm still playing with the percentage. I want to try a 70/30 blend. 4627 70%, and 444 30%.
  11. I have already made six testers. Just got the 4627 about a week ago. I have to say I'm loving it. I have tested the CD, CDN, and HTP wick's to be honest they all are working out pretty well. I only had a very small mushroom on both the HTP, and the CDN. No soot, and perfect adhesion to the glass. The CT is good, but the HT is great. For the life of me I couldn't get Peaks clean cotton to throw very well in my straight soy blend. It throws very well now in the 444 and 4627 blend. Just wanted to post some results on this combo. Because when I was trying to decide if the 4627 would blend well with the 444, I couldn't find much info on it.
  12. If you buy a digital scale. It will make your life so much easier. You should only have to add 1oz of fragrance oil per pound of wax. I know that some add up to 1.5oz of fragrance oil to there wax. But to me if I cant get a Fo to throw with only 1oz than I don't use it. HTH
  13. Dito, on the pictures. I truly am happy for you. I can only imagine the excitement you feel right now. I wish you great success in your endeavors. I just pray that I to will be able to open one for myself.
  14. I really like "Mountain Charmer", its very different. I also like "Cabin In The Woods"
  15. Your right it does not necessarily predict sells for 2010. But its a nice place to start for 2010 isn't it ?
  16. They are just buying the name. A lot of people now days are just really shallow. It does not matter about the price or quality if it has a big name label.
  17. You never cease to amaze me. Its really pretty. I also agree that it would be a great V-day candle.
  18. Thanks, I have actually sold all of them. I thought I would get stuck burning some myself. But hey, that would not have been so bad.
  19. That one was the next one on my list. The scent description sounded very interesting.
  20. Hey suggestions are alway welcomed. Thanks for them. I will use both as a guide line to what I buy next.
  21. update: I got the SM Christmas tree to throw it smells great. The bayberry still smells more like clove. But I had a lady that really liked the scent go figure. I have just got done pouring pink sugar from SG and it smells great.
  22. [quote=RichardLOZ;809203 They work like crap in soy wax. Even the large wick which is 3/4 inch I think has trouble staying lit in a 16 oz apothecary jar. I was thinking the same thing. I figured that the soys melt point was just to low for these type of wicks. I have been wanting to try the glass glow palm. But I have always heard it was a booger to wick. I still have 20 or so wood wicks left. So I think I'm going to have to buy some GG and play a little with it. There is defiantly a market for wood wicks even here in the states. I had good feed back when I was making them. Its just like you said they are crappie in soy. Not to mention they scared me because the glass would get so hot. I had a bunch of the wicks to shift or just plain fall over. But hopefully with a higher melt point wax they will work.
