I have one of those; I've never used it! Thought it was just to take crayon off walls, but my friend said she cleaned the interior roof of her car with it (she's a smoker)!

I've had success with Clorox Clean Up. Be careful with it though; it is super strong and will dry your hands out like crazy if you don't wear rubber gloves when using it. Good luck. I love liquid dye, but it is definitely a mess....had a big blue streak in my hair from it last week; Jeff's Head & Shoulders shampoo took it out in a single wash, luckily! If I was as stylish as Kate DiMira from Days of Our Lives, maybe I could have pulled it off, but it basically just looked like a mid-life crisis of some sort!

Here's my idea of the wild west...Windy City rock....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWucYbAp8Lk

Jack, It was one of those phrases that was popular, but now is dead with the kids. They are so trendy it is impossible to keep up!

We would say Giddy, up, Cowboy here in MI. Is it a local thing? I'm enamored with Georgia and plan to retire in Savannah. Fill me in, Jack!

Just wondering if any members here do stained glass? I bought a piece at the show I was at this weekend, and would like a duplicate for a friend, and a larger version for myself. TIA!

A few pics from the Mistletoe Market yesterday. I forgot the base for the birdbath bowl full of oval tart tubs, but with it setting flat on the table it was easily accessible and eye catching to the kids (Santa was there) which boosted sales. Luckily, all the "smalls" were very well behaved and very careful when handling the items. We did this show last year as our first and had a great day. This year was much slower...my estimate was that we only did about 25% of last year's sales, but when Jeff totalled it up for me, we actually did approximately 75%, which eased my brain a bit. We're booked at a small local show next Saturday, so hopefully we can redeem ourselves a bit. Sorry for the shoddy photos; I'm just learning how to run the camera on my new phone. Thanks for looking!

Can't wait to read your reviews!

Just out of curiosity, how long does everyone expect a melt to last for throw? I get far different results between my electric warmer and a small tea light burner...what is typical in soy vs. paraffin?

Do you have a large, lazy cat around? For some reason they seem to help. Our resident pet, Moose, just has to be underfoot whenever I pour, and many other board members have similar issues. Perhaps you need a feline friend for some good cat karma! LOL...jk...just don't give up. Agree...glue dots are a joke. Get yourself a dual temp glue gun. Saves a ton of headaches, and tell us your stress issues with some details, and we will try to help you out. If you are messing with soy, be prepared for many issues...it's a tricky bit#h to tame, but is amazing when you succeed. Just remember: every FO and dye combo tests different. Take time to get it right. HTH!

Please dish! I have a sales rep who is interested; is it worth our $$$?

Sexy Citrus

It's from Enchanted Lites. I get it from Lorrie here on the boards. www.jandlcreations.com

I started with an amaretto nog, and switched when I found the Angel Amaretto I use now. It blows everything else I've tried away; not at all an alcohol/liquor smell, but super duper scent. HTH!

Trudi, Your site is awesome! Love your jars, Girl!

BTW...how about Holiday Sugar Britches? I know...it's weird:p

We're testing the CandleScience Plumberry to market as Sugar Plum for winter; so far so good on cold throw, and it was magical when I was pouring. What is the issue with the name, Jack?

Beautiful! Please keep sharing!

Just hold off a bit. You have to have 30 days in here to get access to the forums that will allow you to purchase via co-op's and classifieds. Try to be patient. I started slow in M&P with supplies I bought off the classies here; saved a ton of cash and didn't dwell in hobby store crap. Keep reading the threads, and pay attention to those who have good recipes; Candybee's are amazing and are on a Sticky. I currently use SFIC base, and love it. I do want to try EBC, and am patiently waiting for another co-op to come up to order. HTH, and good luck.

We just pour the wax (yep, tip the hot pot up) directly into our pour pot. I occasionally have a small spillage amount because of my wonky neck/arm issue, but I make a much bigger mess with the dye...hahaha!

I would check with your local hardware store and ask about flat black grill paint (designed for high temps) and give a batch a quick spray, let dry thoroughly, then pour...and naturally test this batch outside with a fire extinguisher handy, JIC! I think it would work...I'm going to talk to Boy Wonder about it when he comes in from his break. He'll try anything! Keep us posted.

That is awesome! I've seen tons of Christmas theme villages, but that is the first time I've seen such an elaborate Halloween display. Great work, keep sharing your creativity. You are inspiring! ☮, Brandy

Another batch from last night; Cherry Almond, Mountain Rain, Fresh Laundry, Peaches & Cream, Wild Cherry, Macintosh Apple, Blue Cotton Candy...and the dreaded Lavender. For some reason that one just makes my physically sick when I pour it, and it is far too cold to keep windows open. Only six scents left to pour, then this order is complete! Thanks for looking. ☮, Brandy

Oh, my new friends...just wait. I have left my home after a thorough hot shower/shampoo and arrived at events to have people walk up and say "you smell yummy" or "you smell like pumpkin pie spice, etc"...it permeates everything in your home when you get going... ☮, Brandy
