Paper Cups.. I get them from costco in Bulk.. the small ones are great for making a small pour spout to fill in little molds ( like blueberries and rosehips, and detail) the little larger are great for mixing one candle fragrance at a time. Also, when i do Pillars, i just pour the excess into the cup, easy to pop out when i do a repour and doesn't tie up my pour pots. Also much easier if you are trying to do small amounts of color out of the same batch. a few drops if dye in the cup, easier to pour, and keep the pot "pure". When i'm done with the cut, i remove all the wax before tossing and put it in a bag for chunks later.

What recipie are you using? I have one i love from MMS, 21 oz wt Coconut Oil 25 oz wt Palm Oil 32.75 oz wt Palm Kernel Oil 5.25 oz wt Shea Butter 32 fl oz water 12.25 oz wt lye (sodium hydroxide) No Fail, easy to work with,

Head and shoulders shampoo also does it.. I used this with my sister before.. Worked wonders..

Perhaps simply twisting the paper more so that it looks like a paper fuse.. if you used a larger piece, like tissue paper, and then twist real tight.. or, use like a gold (or white) twister seal and wrap it around the paper real tight.. would negate the need for a warning on it..

remembrance,

If you are using the pot for the same kind of wax each time, you can weigh out 1 pound incriments and then use some type of marker ( i use a perminate black sharpie, but you could use like an ice pick and make a scratch) to denote each pound of wax in the pot, makes dyes and fo's easier to decipher
