  1. That's a very sweet lovable kitty.
  2. Those colours are beautiful. I love your rustic candle, it's just perfect. Your cats sound rather cute - I'm glad mine are older and a little more sedate now.
  3. Very pretty - I love that feather palm wax.
  4. How pretty are those! I love the Rose Patch colours and the Nag Champa would fit perfectly in one of my rooms. Lovely rustics.
  5. It's so good to have a go. The heat gun doesn't give the effect that a gas torch does so don't despair. The beauty of the gas torch is that there is no "blowing" going on, just melting. Keep at it, and in no time at all, you'll find that yours are great.
  6. They look beautiful, the colours are great and the rustic effect is good.
  7. Thank you so much for all your kind comments. I love doing these candles and your input makes it even more rewarding.
  8. Thank you for taking the time to look and for your comments.
  9. Thanks Donita - I think I can buy magnetised rubber here which would be good, then I can just use the magnet on the outside of the mold. It's so much fun trying new ideas, thank you for sharing. Hugs from Jo
  10. That's perfect just the way it is Donita. I love it. OK, I understand about the rubber stamp, but how do you get it to stay put in the mold, and does the candle come out of the mold with the rubber stamp attached and then you peel it off, or what? I'm dying to know.
  11. My torch is BIG - but I'm careful. Of course, if you bought one of those smaller ones, and said it was for the kitchen, to flambe food, how could your DH complain then? That would be a lot easier to use as it isn't as heavy.
  12. They're beautiful, i bet your neighbour will love them.
  13. I loved it before and after. Beautiful candle!
  14. Yes, that's what I aim to do, blend the original colour candle (white in this case) with the dye shavings, thereby getting different shades of the dye. It's a slow process and can take an hour per candle before I'm happy with the result - if I do it too fast too much melting occurs so patience is a definite requirement!!! I find it very relaxing.
  15. Hi Anita, I made a white candle, placed wax dye shavings on the outside and then melted them into the outside with a gas torch. It's lots of fun and each candle is unique.
  16. Hi, These are fragranced Victoria Rose. Thank you for looking.
  17. Hi Guys, Here are some of my latest painted candles - done by melting the wax dye onto the outside of the candle with a gas torch and making patterns. Most of them are scented lavender and cedar, except for the sand and salmon coloured one which is orange, sandalwood and cinnamon. I hope you enjoy having a look.
  18. I love ice candles and yours looks great.
  19. They're looking great Sabrina - very professional. :highfive:
  20. They are fabulous. I love the pink one, the effect of the palm wax is fantastic.
  21. They look especially special to me - well done.
  22. I love ALL of those - my favourite is the square with flowers. Absolutely beautiful. :highfive:
  23. Mozzie that looks very professional and elegant. I love it.
  24. They look great - they'd fit in with my decor very well.
