  1. Too close IMO..........and I despise the look of doublewicking! It just looks "off" or tacky to me. Of course, I had some jars I had to doublewick and it drove me nuts! *super banana*
  2. NG carries Black Cherry Bomb and it will burn your nose hairs off. I used to pour Longwycks and loved theirs too, but I do believe they went out of business. Not sure if another supplier is carrying their FO's(?). Too many changes... can't keep up with it all!
  3. No idea on a name, but that is gorgeous soap! Grumpy is the queen, for sure
  4. I don't care which supplier you buy it from, it's a nasty scent. Bleck! And of course, my daughter LOVES it and can't get enough of it. I told her she had to pour her own while I'm gone or pour it at her house.
  5. You are not alone. Pink Sugar (AKA: Bleck!) gags me.
  6. You have to get Vanilla Bean Noel, ditto on SAP & Amish Harvest, This Old House, Endless Sea, Lavish Laundry, Very Sexy for Her. I didn't like the Cherry Blossom type..... too baby powdery for my nose! And Love Spell....everyone raves about the LS. Bleck! It's gag factor for me!!It is a dead on dupe to VS though.
  7. Strangely enough, in my 10 years of candlemaking, I've never had a jar crack. Until now! I never ever re-use the jars, as glass tends to weaken. Had a regular customer give a friend a candle for Xmas. Customer tells me her friends jar cracked. The candle was about gone, did not do anything different from my standpoint, did not re-use the jar, etc. No freakin clue what happened! She was not upset that it cracked... it didn't hurt anything.....she caught it right away......she was only mad because there was "still some candle left" ......her only complaint.
  8. Lavender, patchouli, sandalwood, anything butterscotch or caramel............bleck! They all make me want to hurl.
  9. I must live under a rock! Been in the candlemaking world for about 10 years and have never come across these before! LOL It is a very pretty candle. I'm curious to see how it burns with "chunks" sticking out.........I normally don't like the chunk thing, but this candle is gorgeous! I may have to buy one...........curiosity doncha know!
  10. http://www.primalelements.com/iwwidb.pvx?;multi_item_submit (don't know if the link will work, but you can c/p the link) A gal I used to work with got one for a gift. The candle is really very pretty and it smells devine (cold throw). As good as my CBL. She hasn't said how the hot throw is, but she said it's absolutely gorgeous burning. It has a stained glass affect while burning. The candle comes with a special lid for snuffing (their words not mine!), but the candle in general, is unusual, gorgeous and very unique!
  11. Another silk lotion lover here. Especially in the Summer.... the silk lotion is light, but hydrates your skin and leaves a silky feeling. NOT greasy at all. I think BBW has their BIG sale in January. I'll be stocking up!
  12. Bleck! Pink Sugar is nasty stuff. I would have had to pay people to take it off my hands. Haven't tried the Blue Sugar. Sharon is right though.........musk......ew........... makes me gag. For being a die hard vanilla HO, WVS makes me want to ralph!
  13. I am with Mystical on this one. Tri-State...... awesome and killer strong!
  14. I 2nd KY's Soy Whip! Love that stuff!!! I tried Essentials by Catalina and I liked it, but much prefer the Soy Whip along with customers. When I sold, I marketed it as "Indulgent Body Butter". People love this stuff!
  15. I love, love, love the looks of the palm wax. Gorgeous candles you got going on there!
  16. I love them........... You are one patient person, that's for sure!!! They really look devine.
  17. I love them........... You are one patient person, that's for sure!!! They really look devine.
  18. Simply gorgeous E! You are the rustic queen!!!
  19. Pour HOT (190-200), but honestly, if you have a batch with too much vybar....your only saving grace is the heat gun. Burns me to get the heat gun out, but it's the only way to get a smooth top. I LOVE this wax and have used it for years, tried others, but always go back to the CBL. I often thought about adding soy to the CBL, but have never wanted to retest everything plus I thought I would lose the fabulous scent throw this wax produces.
  20. Holy crap..........that is awesome soap! Lovin it!!!
  21. I gotta come back tomorrow to see if I see anything! LOL I see nothing but Meredith's finger!!!!!! ROTF
  22. Gorgeous website......very classy! No prim, no dolls, no country! My kind of website.........absolutely gorgeous!
  23. You are 100% correct about this stuff......It is thee best. Feels FABULOUS on the skin...... no greasy feeling, very moisturizing. I'm sold!!!
  24. Why, why, why do people heat their jars? I have never understood that and never will!!!!!!! It's a waste of time....imho!
  25. I hear ya! I love Vickey's soy whip too..... can't get enough of it! I could swear I read it on here a long time ago that Steve's was the same. I need to order from Steve, so thought I'd inquire! Thanks!!!
