Hi! Hope this is not in the wrong spot, I just found this site and althou new here, not to candlemaking. I wanted to say hello to everyone and introduce myself. My DH and I have been making candles for 7 years now, selling for only 3 years. IMO, the importance of testing cannot be mentioned to often, as reading on here, you all do such a great job in getting that out. I'm so glad I found this site and have really enjoyed reading all your posts. I have my candles in about 10 retail sites. I use a soy paraffin blend. I live on a small farm with my husband and 2 children. I am a stay at home Mom. Well, guess I've babbled enough for now, just wanted to say hello and hope to meet alot of new friends. Cindy
