Cake

Yes, many floral & perfume fragrances I can't stand! The worst for me though has to be tomato

Leaf....it's like my own personal kryptonite. Gag!

I use tongue depressors (wooden ones from a medical supply store)

& wooden paint stirrers. I wipe them down after each use & get many many uses out of each one.

Thank you Chris, I found them

Beautiful!!

Thank you I'll check out candlemakingsupplies.com

Looking for a watermelon fragrance that doesn't smell like candy. Any recommendations?

I like BCN better myself. It has a richer more real fragrance IMO. I found BCN also gave a better cold & hot throw in all different waxes I've tried it in.

Congratulations! The new place looks lovely & beautiful looking flooring.

Does anyone know anything about this type of wax? I was wondering what it is a mix of. Also has anyone mixed it with soy wax, & and if so was the end result ok? What type of wick does this wax (creme wax) need?

I love this was too. Easy to work with & great scent throw.

I don't think you were crazy at all! I originally purchased 2lbs. the last time...not dreaming they would discontinue it. Now I'm sorry I didn't order more. I'll update this thread if I find anything close to LBC.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions! @candlesncats thank you for offering me a sample, that's incredibly sweet. But because I always get good recommendations from everyone here I've placed a few "sampling" orders. I have tried the 7up pound cake from NG. I like it better in product then OOTB. It has been hard to find a lemon cake so far that didn't smell like cleaning product . I have my fingers crossed for these coming in that I ordered. Thank you again everyone for your feedback!

Do you know if it's a good, & realistic smelling fragrance?

BCN discontinued a lemon bundt cake scent a while ago. I tried NG lemon pound cake. NG's is okay...does anyone know of anything better?

Yes, I've had a few change to inky black. All from different suppliers too. One was Pumpkin Crunch Cake from NG. It doesn't mess with the fragrance...that I've noticed. It does mess with getting light and bright colors in my candles sometimes.

Thank you! I Know vanilla makes soap darken, but I didn't know it would darken said oil over time. I've never had a finished candle darken over time though. Has this happen to anyone that used a FO with high vanilla content?

Does anyone know why FO's change from clear in color to dark black? They get around 4 to 6 months old from the time that I purchased them. Then they turned black...?? They seem to smell the same, just darker in color. It does cause some of my waxes to darken in color as well.

Thank you so much!! That makes me feel better, to know I shouldn't look at it like wasting wax & that it is safer. I've been making candles for almost 8 years (as a hobby), but I'm still new at it. I just started trying out new waxes & wicks. Thanks again.

I also used crayons to color the wax back when I made my first couple of candles. They were BIG fails lol. You might be able to dip a core candle in to crayon dyed wax. But crayons clog up the wicks really bad otherwise. HTH

I just started using GI 4630 wax, along with the HTP wicks. The problem I'm having is every time the candle burns down it leaves about 1/4 inch of wax in the container. I haven't run in to this problem with vegetable wax or my paraffin pillar wax before. Is this just something I must live with or am I doing something wrong??? Would stickems/glue dots or hot glue (for wicking) make a difference? Please help!

The black rose sounds like it would be lovely too. TY

Thank you everyone! I'm definitely going to try these. :-)

I've been looking for good lime, cherry, & rose fragrances. Although I've tried a few, I've yet to find good ones. Every cherry I've tried smells like cough drops....??? Any help would be great. Thanks everyone :smiley2:

Very nice! :-)

I think it looks lovely
