  1. Wow, Congratulations. Everything looks great. Now relax. What all do you have in your baskets?
  2. That is great news. congratulations. Better get busy with those candles.
  3. Great Finds Kathy. I need to come to your town.
  4. Yeah, I finally got in. I have never ordered from them before. Never been to their site but OH Wow. They have some great oils. Was disappointed that I had to order $25 but I needed the Brown Sugar and Fig. I will let you know how it is. I can't wait to get it.
  5. Thanks everyone. Sharyl, the band is a xmas scene that goes all the way around. Guess you can't make it out.
  6. has anyone seen this anywhere but Sweet Cakes? I can't get into Sweet Cakes. Is there a problem that anyone knows about?
  7. I've not tried the 2inch pillars so can't help there. but the votives I use a RRD29 or 34. I didn't even try the zinc. I doubt you will get a good burn from zinc but you never know till you try. and make sure palm votives are in a tight fitting container. hth
  8. that is really great. Glad it was a success
  9. It was an open house from 2-4. this gal had invited 15 people and 4 showed up. Sold $197. I didn't think that was too bad. In fact I was excited!!! What was funny is I worked so hard this last week pouring all these xmas container candles. Guess what sold. 2 orders for hurricanes, one jelly jar, and the rest was in Tarts. I was floored. Lots and Lots of tarts. You just never know. I was so nervous and glad the first one is overwith. I did have fun. Here are pictures of my set up. I know it needs work but best I could do this time.
  10. I am testing this right now. Some I have a nice flat top and others I have to do a repour. I pour at 165-175. I have found you have to pour slow. hth
  11. I have tried Peaks. I had some cracking on the outside of the picture that I embedded and I have never had that problem before. I was using 1260. It could be something I have done cause out of 3 of them that I did the other day one came out perfect. The wax seems to cool alot faster than the 1260 and comes right out of the mold. I will continue to try it. It is in powder form so no pounding on the drive way.lol
  12. I am using the new embed wax from Peaks. This is the first time I have tried it. I use to use 1260, and never had that happen before. HypOr - that is exactly what mine did on two of them. They also came loose on acouple of the edges. WEll, I will use this slab and see if it coninues and if it does I will go back to the 1260 or try 5055. thanks Donita and HypOr.
  13. I made acouple hurricanes with pictures embedded. After it cooled and sat awhile where the pictures were it cracked on the outside. I have never had this happen before. anybody have this problem? thanks
  14. okay the 2.50 has a plus sign so it is 2.50 plus 4.00 so the 8oz is 6.50 that is confusing and will change all that. thanks for all the comments.
  15. Boy do I have alot of work to do. I think what it is doing is adding the shipping into the total.
  16. Thanks for the all the advice. I will work on it tonight.
  17. thanks for the compliments. Now that it is up and going I have some changes to do.
  18. Well crap. things never seem to go right for me without a struggle. I emailed them and asked if this was going to be an ongoing problem. Hope not.
  19. thanks alot. I will be making the changes. That is why I wanted everyone's opinion. This is my first website and I value what everyone thinks and how I can better myself. No, you weren't too brutal.LOL I can take it.
  20. Here is my new website. www.pollyannasattic.com Let me know what you think. What I should change. Misspelling! etc. Be gentle. LOL

  22. Thanks Suds, I used J223 before. I love the way Peaks wax looks and very few wet spots some don't have any. What wick do you use in your JJ? thanks
