  1. This type of thing. Yankee sells them but I know I've seen them on supplier webpages in the past, though I can't remember where.... http://www.shesaved.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Yankee-Candle1.png
  2. Can someone point me to suppliers that sell Illuma Lid type, metal candle toppers? Thanks!
  3. What supplier has a GREAT donut scent? All I ever seem to get my hands on is cinnamon scents. I want warm gooey, awesome donuts, easy on the cinnamon. A blend would be great, as well. Thanks!
  4. That seems like an odd combo...I'm intrigued.
  5. Blueberry Pumpkin Patch, Chanel No 5, Oatmeal Cookie with icing, Strawberry strong, satsuma (though I think other supplier's versions are closer to the original), Chestnuts and brown sugar, Pink Sands & Banana Caramel Cupcake....so far so good on all of them.
  6. I gotta update here. When I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I've used some of them now and I have to say, when they get into the wax they really did well. Spoke too soon...
  7. Thank you!~ I just might check that one out too! I appreciate the help!
  8. I knew I should have stood by my old soapin' standby suppliers. I like the variety offered there but.......oy. I'll give it a shot, but I was hoping for better.
  9. I just ordered a TON of samples from them and most smell super weak in the bottles. Please tell me the scents bloom and throw well in wax. (Generally, I know there's a dud in every supplier's warehouse). Whats the general impression of their oils in here?
  10. I think I have the mix pretty decent, Babs. I never liked the KY tart wax much. It was just an ok throw for me.
  11. Thanks for all the great info guys!
  12. ACK!! I didnt know that. I was using straight paraffin and a container blend and 1 tsp PPO of vybar. Maybe I'll nix the vybar. In what way does the vybar lock the scent out? Curious. Thank you!
  13. Wax blends for tarts will be the death of me.... For those of you that mix a paraffin pillar wax with a container wax for tarts, are you also adding vybar? For instance, in a case like 1343, it doesn't have additives, but the container wax might - so is it necessary? OR....if the pillar wax you are using does have additives, would you still add more? Do any of you also add soy to a mix like this? I have tried combos til I wanna rip my hair out. I make a mean candle (I feel, anyway) but the throw on melts is very hit and miss. Working with the above waxes/combo now....the latest at a 50/50 ratio. I used WSPs Wildberry Scone and didnt cure it yet (I know...saved some to cure, as well) and it's just meh. Help a girl out before I'm bald. I'll seriously sell one of my children for any tricks, insider knowledge, secrets. I have two, I can part with one. TIA!
  14. Gorgeous. I especially love the second one!
  15. You just need to put a plate under them for the first couple burns. Thanks all...
  16. Anyone else freakin' out that Christmas is, like....2 days from now in money years? [ATTACH]26673[/ATTACH]
  17. Scented, I used Oatmeal Stout. Thanks everyone!
