    Thank you. I made some more this past weekend and only used 1/2 ounce with soy wax and most of them are perfect. The only one I did use 1 ounce on doesn't seem to be strong enough (go figure) so now I know. Thanks! I'm learning alot just be experimenting which is what you have to do I guess.

    I am super new to this candle making business and have had requests already for people to purchase candles from me. They have enjoyed my "samples". YAY for me. Does anyone have an excel spreadsheet or somewhere I can go that will help calculate cost per candle for me. I have an excel worksheet that was made but it is sort of confusing. For every item it asks about shipping and handling but I obviously didn't buy just that one item. In any event, if anyone has something they could share that would be great! Thanks!!

    What kind of wick do you do for your tealights? I just made some and used some votive wicks so I am hoping that is ok. Any thoughts. BTW... I'm really new at this. But having a lot of fun with it.

    I do have a scale and that makes sense, thanks so much!

    Hello there. I am new here and in fact this is my very first post. :smiley2: I made my first batch of candles last weekend and they actually turned out better than I expected (for being my first time). I wasn't quite sure how much fragrance to add though. I guessed and it turned out ok but how do I know in the future? How do you measure? Is there a tool I can use (a dropper maybe??) or is there another way of figuring this out? Any help would be appreciated!
