    I am going to throw mine out there. My favorite color is yellow, I am also a fan of orange. I really like the scent banana cream and anything peach.

    I would love some information on peoples favorite colors and scents of candles. Just what you like.

    I do like the design. It is hard to read, But just like one of the others said it is probably just our computers. Good job.

    Try the twisting technique it has worked so far with my pillar candle. I have been making candles for years. I thought it was just the wicks I bought. Mine also curl to one side. Until I found your question and tried the twisting technique I thought it was the type of wick I was buying. Try it. I am very happy.

    It 's working. It has been a problem for me for years. I can't believe I am just now hearing about twisting the wick. I will continue to do this all the time. I thought it was the kind of wicks. Thank you everyone for your help. The wick is turning and the pillar is heating the same all around. It is still early in the burn, and hope I am not speaking to soon. I am so glad to get the help.

    I get frosting. I don't see it as much with my pillars. I get it with my container candles. I will say if I melt the wax that I poured in the container and re-pored the wax it seems to take away the frosting, sometimes, not all the time. I am not really sure why this happens. I also use soy wax. Frosting is normal for soy wax. I put that on all my product.

    I use square braided wick. WR 2004 and WR 2006. I have the problem also that the wick seems to turn to the side and burn hot on one side. I really would like some one to tell me how to twist my wicks so they burn even hopefully. Please I would like any information on this twisting. I use molds so should I do the twisting after I wax the wick or be for.

    I use the square braided wick from candlewic. I have tried the WR 2004 and the WR 2006 for my pillars. They curl too. I will also try this twisting technique.

    I also use soy wax and I get a lot of people looking at the rose petal scent. I got it from lone star. I love the lavender from lone star also. Good luck.

    Candlewic is the name of the scent company. I don't think that is the issue all the other scents I have tried and tested burn fine. Same containers same wicks every thing. I use half a ounce of fragrance per pound of wax. I actually have went bigger on my wick size. I have been doing this for 3 years and have never encountered this problem. That is why I think it has to do with butter in the name.

    I have the scents maple butter and hot buttered rum. I have had a hard time getting them to burn proper I was wondering if any one else had problems with the scents? I think they smell great I just can't get the wick to burn good. I have used the ecosoya CB 135 and the nature wax vegetable wax. I have not yet tried the scents in my pillars. Only containers. I have not had this problem in any other scents. Help please.

    I am also looking forward to fall. I love all the warm scents but mostly the weather. I am in Oklahoma. It has been really hot here. I want to be able to ship my candles with out worrying about them.
  18. TammyGCC
    Everyone here has been great to me also. Good luck with making candles. Congratulations on your soap making. Good morning to you also.
  19. TammyGCC
    Thank you for all your info. I have been making candles for almost 3 years. Testing wicks, I didn't even consider the heat when it came to shipping. Now I am. It worries me, I am in Oklahoma.
  20. TammyGCC
    Any tips on shipping candles in this heat. I am worried they might melt. Please help any one. Any suggestions would be great.

    I only use bees wax making taper candles. I also don't see it being very good wax for a container because it does tend to shrink away from the edges.

    I have tried the WR2000 it works good with my blueberry smell. I get some of the smells from Lone Star candle company. I have also tried the WR2001 still not the results I feel good with. I have never had this many problems with a certain smell. I am really wondering if any one else has had this problem with maple butter. 1/2 pint mason jars the top is appr. 2 1/2 inches wide.
  23. TammyGCC
    The type of wax I am using is EcoSoya CB-135. The container is a 8 once mason jar and the fragrance and wick both came from candle wic. I would sure be thankful for any advice on the maple butter smell. I use 1/2 ounce per pound of wax.
  24. TammyGCC
    I am interested in using wick pins. I just use craft sticks to center my wicks. I use the wick tabs.
  25. TammyGCC
    I think I have it all figured out when I make candles as far as the wick size. I am having some problems with maple butter. I love the scent. What I am saying is that I have went up 3 wick sizes and still not getting a good burn. I am using the square braided wick and the eight once jar. Is there anyone else using this scent that can tell me what wick to use and the fact that maybe it is the soy wax I am using. Please help.
