That's so funny. When I posted that I was ordering the TCS wax, I wondered how you would feel. I would have had the same feelings. We always want others to love something the way we do. :smiley2: Sorry to make you nervous, but I have a good feeling about it. I ordered the Container blend-slab. I think that is the kind you mentioned in other posts. I also order IGI 4794 and 415 from Peak. Hoping one of them will work. I'm still excited. And I would love to get a few samples of your tarts. That is so sweet of you!!!!

Just ordered TCS wax and fragrances. Excited to try it. Thanks Ravens.

I received KY para-soy wax last week. I am a newbie, so I was excited to try it. I'd heard great things about it. But I have been so disappointed. The heat throw is terrible. I thought it was me being new, but I have made multiple batches following precise measuring and heating specifications. I emailed Vickie from Ky candle supply. She told me I must be doing something wrong, and said she had no other complaints from other customers. I wish she had been more help.

So dissappointed. I tried burning my tarts today. They have no HT at all. I'm so sad. I tried everything that was suggested. I am thinking I got a bad batch of wax. I saw on another thread that some others were dissappointed in KY Para-soy. Not a great start, but I am not giving up. I'm going to try another brand- I ordered 4794 and 415 from Peak. Hope it will go better next time.

Georgia, What is your favorite wax for making Tarts? Thanks, again.

Thank you for your help. I tried all your suggestions and they have helped. I also think my nose was not working too well after smelling and resmelling all the new scents I ordered. After smelling my creations this morn, I am much happier with the results. I ended up making 10 batches of tarts yesterday - my girls and I made them all night. It was a blast and I can't wait to burn them in a few days. I even dreamed about making candles last night. I think I'm already obessed. Is this a common problem? :smiley2: Thanks again.

Hi! Just made my first two batches of melts. All I smell is wax in my molds. Is this common or did I do somehting wrong? Will the fragrance get stronger as it cools and cures? I mixed 1/2 Ilb KY Para-soy wax with 1/2 ounce fragrance - from Nature's Garden - Lick me all over, and Twilight in the Woods. Heated the wax to about 165 added fragrance, waited a minute or two - using Therometer and poured. 1st batch I took melting pot out of water as I stirred in fragrance, second batch I left in water while I stirred. Maybe I poured too hot or cold. I really don't know. Does pour temp make a huge difference? Help!!!
