Is this a good wax blend to use for wax melts and tarts? I am just starting out with candle making. Any help would be appreciated. 

Love the colors.

Beautiful

Thank you for the awesome compliment. I love the encouragement. I am waiting on more beads so I can make more.

aww thank you.

Thank you.

I made my first beaded bottle cap necklace today.

I know how to make the bottle caps. I need to know how to make the beaded necklace.

I am wanting to make beaded bottle cap necklaces like the ones here. http://www.etsy.com/listing/67602762...ecklace-beaded I have never made jewelry before and would like to know how to get started making these.

My son would love those. I those will be at the top of the list of the things I want to with. Do you think they would be easy enough for a first time soaper?

that is good that they made things right.

those look awesome. I would love to know how to make them.

What does SFIC stand for?

After much reading I am not understanding how you know how much of everything to put in a recipe. Everything is listed by percentage how do I figure out actual amounts? Am I missing something?

Love the blueberries on top. they look awesome.

Those are super cute.

That is a lot of candles.

I am still reading and researching everything. I really want to start making bath and body products and this seems pretty easy. My question is this makes 80 lip balms can you once you have everything mixed together just take like a 1/4 of and add flavor oil and then let the rest set and remelt later? How much flavor oil would you use for 1/4 of the recipe. Thanks in advance for the help. My girls go through a ton of lip balm and this would the perfect thing for me to start with.

Yes, especially on a limited budget. Although it may be more convenient to go to Michaels and pick up a few supplies as you can afford it, the results will be disappointing. Better to save up and buy a kit that has quality materials.

What kits would you recommend?

The directions for putting a spigot on the presto pot is at www.peakcandlesupply.com scroll down on the left and click on candle tech. Then in the upper right hand corner, the search, type in "presto pot", walaaa it's the best way to do it. They have a ton of info on that site and by the way how much money$$$$ do you have.:laugh2::laugh2:They have kits. That how I got addicted. then you go to Candlemaking addiction .com the 12 step program. Just kidding:laugh2:WELCOME

I am sure once I get started I am going to be an addict. Right now I have no money so I can't get started but I am loving just reading everything here and researching everything. Are the candle kits good to start with?

Could you email it to me as well? Thanks.

I am definitely wanting to try lip balms. My kids go through a lot of lip balms. I figured it would be a lot cheaper to start making my own.
