How funny it is that I just came across this and VERY recently am experiencing a similar thing! I was doing refills for my sister and someone else, well, my sister was buying so many that I recommended to her that she should just make them! I would tell her anything and help her w/ whatever, she's my sister. Then, I have someone else that wanted to make their own also, she didnt buy as many from me, but anyway, so I told her I would get her a box of wax the next time I went and got a big load. I didnt mind that at all. I even offered to help her w/ tips, but I did find myself wondering how much info I should pass along... she mentioned she was also going to make them for her family and friends, some of whom buy from me already???? I have been given soooooooo much help and advice on here, and from other resources, that I feel like I "owe" it to pass the info along, BUT I also did TONS of hours of research and testing, and all the money and time i have invested in that wasnt cheap! THEN, last night, I get a message on my FB from someone that I think I went to school w/??? asking me where I got my info on making candles or something to that effect? This person isnt even a "friend' on FB??? I havent responded yet????? I was going to say online since that's where 99% of my info has come from. I have talked to other candle makers and read some books at the library, but they were so dated that the online info was better. So, after all that my position on this is that I think its great to share the knowledge, especially since so many did for me, GREAT Big Thank you to you ALL, BUT I think the person asking should still have to do the footwork and not expect it all to just be "handed" to them. ok.... so now that I have typed out my novel, I'm going to work:)
