  1. This is awesome information Stella!! Thank you!!

    I burned it for an hour and the scent was all over the house and the hallway. I used 1 oz fragrance on 12 ounce soy wax. Hmm, the wick package only displays a number but I did order for 3-4 diameter. The only concern I have is that the wax does burn to one side of the container but leaves it untouched on a small piece of the other side of the container. Wick problem maybe?? I made two now with another kind of wick but want to cure the candles for a couple of days.

  2. I used soy wax this time and used a 3 x 3.5 container.

    I used Yellow/Sunlight/Canary Color and a Cinnemon Bun Scent (1 0z)

    Cold throw was slightly scented while the hot throw was more a nicely soft scent that could be smelled through the whole house and the hallway.

  3. Sharon, I do understand where you are coming from. However, I was the one with the attitude of "I have it all figured out" while I didn't know squat about candle making...LOL I have check the places that you linked as well as CandleScience. The wax in itself it pretty reasonable, but it is the darn shipping rates that double the costs. I was told that the Ecosoya CB-135 is a good wax who throws good scents. I'm still looking into the wicks I need to use. I have decided to try small candles first just for tryouts! That way I can figure out the amount I need for colors and scents.

  4. Thank you all so much for the information. Wow, I really overdid it thinking I had this all figured out...wow, what a dork I was...LOL Anyway, the wicking is indeed my problem. I looked at the links Steve gave me but not much in Minnesota so I'll have to go look in other states to see what they have. I did notice now that I have a regular big candle container with Parrafin Wax and two medium wicks and it only burns in the middle...Anyway, again thank you all so much for bursting my bubble...it felt good...LOL
