  1. Check out http://www.jarstore.com/ , they have had some really good sales. I have also checked with local Ace Hardware stores, and they can get mason jars at a really good price as well. The mason jars come in serval good sizes and they are easy to work with as well, plus no S&H. Hope this helps some!
  2. Did you ever try using the essential oils? I was wondering if you could use essential oils for scent?? Really would like to know how it turned out. Thanks
  3. Thank you Stella, it only did it the first few times I burned them. I just wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong or what. I'm going to do some more searching and see what I can come up with. Starr, thank you for the help on which key words to use. I'm going to do a search and see what I come up with. Thank you!
  4. Thank you SouthernGal! I'm going to do a search and see what I come up with. Yes, I am talking about the little drops around the jar, it's only when it's burning. Again, thank you for the help
  5. I will post a pic!! I also had the frosty look but only on one batch and it happened to be the lighter color of the batches I did.
  6. I need a little help, and yes I have done a search but for some reason I keep coming up with nothing. Maybe I'm not using the right key words, but I have tried everything I can think of. Here's my question.....Why do the candles look greasy when burning them?? I am using GW 464. I am using Lonestar scents and dyes, 1 oz of scent for every 1 lb. of wax. I am also using ECO-12 6" wicks in 12oz. Status Libby jars. I have tested them 24 hours after cure time, 2 days after and now 3 days and I'm still getting the greasy look. I found that pouring at a higher temp has made the candles set very nice, nice smooth tops. Is there someting I am missing or doing wrong? Or could you give me an idea of which key words to use to do a search? Thank you for any suggestions and help I can get!!!
  7. The iron and paper towel method works very well, gets the job done everytime!
  8. Thank you for the help everyone. Like I said, I just wanted some opinions. I did do a search, but everyones opinion changes from time to time. Agian thank you.
  9. Well, everyone is mixed on it!! I'm just wanting to know if anyone likes them, if you have used them what do you think?? I just want some opinions.
  10. Hello, I'm new to this forum and I'm just wanting to know what you think about wooden wicks?!?! Have you tried them??? I have heard mixed opinions, so I thought I would ask you guys and see what you had to say!! I have had requests for them, but nervous to try!! Please help...lol! Any opinion will help!! Thanks so much!!!:smiley2:
