I love the white ones with red on top. A pillar is just a taller votive so if you can make these beauties, you can do anything.

Donita your work studio is my idea of heaven, mess or not. I also have to store my stuff in big containers and move it from place to place to place. Soon I am going to have a whole room inside for my candlemaking and I am so excited about it. It will make candlemaking much more pleasurable not having to unpack and pack up each time and also give me more energy to do more. I guess we all work around what we have available to us and probably all want more than what we've got.

They are beautiful candles - I'm just going to have to try that now - you've inspired me.

They are spot on - fantasmagorical!

I love the colours Mozzie, especially the blue, it's so intense and electric!

I love your black raspberry vanilla candles, they are superb.

"Scented" inspired me to have a go after seeing her lovely wiggle candles. I can't find her instructions so here goes: After pouring the layer you want to wiggle, wait until it has set on top but still warm and then gently push down on the side of the mold with a spoon handle or something similar. The trick is to not push down too hard, just hard enough to get the wiggle. Then pour your next layer and let that set but still warm and do the same. Have a go and let me know how you get on.

I couldn't agree more - Peaks have been excellent with all of my orders and they ship them to Australia in a very timely fashion in perfect condition.

My first try at a marbled candle - I didn't think it was exactly successful, however I've had lots of requests for more. I've called this one "Sky" and it has a baby powder FO. Quite often people seem to love my "failures" more than my successes.

I'd definitely have bought some of THOSE. They look fabulous and I would have run out of money at your stall.

I think its a lovely rustic.

That is absolutely fabulous - and the dolphin looks great.

Thanks Kerry

This is my first try. I still have to find the perfect tool to use to get the wiggles exactly how I like them though. Sorry the pic's a bit blurry. I really love making these.

Here's another of my experiments - I was trying to have the colours blend gradually - looks like I shall have to keep experimenting with this. French Vanilla & Amber FO.

I've been playing with some new polycarbonate molds. Here's one of my first tries at a layered pentagon.

These are amazing - the horse looks fabulous.

:yay:I like the way it turned out and would still have given it to my sister. I test my colours by putting some wax into a small aluminium muffin tin, about 1 cm deep. I then put the muffin tin in a glass of cold water (it floats) and it sets very quickly. So far I've found this to be the most accurate test, as everything else I've tried doesn't seem to represent the finished colour as well.

Wow, I want to make candles like that!

I love these, especially your blue ones. I haven't mastered the rustic look yet and mine tend to turn out way too "clean" looking. To be able to do rustic and layered at the same time, is definitely talented in my book.

Hi Julie,

I loved your candles, especially the log cabin ones. I bet the fragrance is fabulous from your description. You've inspired me to try more rustic candles.

Hi Cybersix, I loved your candles, especially the draped one. The colours look good together. Jo

Hi, my name is Sabrina, I'm italian, so please forgive me for my english!

I make candles form my own, and they're not perfect.. but I wanted to show you some of them and maybeall you "scientist" could tell me something about! I've not named them, they are non scented: in Italy there's no way to find all kind of waxes and materials as I see on american site.

Thanks for looking at my job. All of yours candles are great!!!

hear I go:

(sorry, photos are ugly)

This is the first time I have shared my candle experiences with the Forum, so I hope all goes well. I painted this one with a gas torch and dye chips after it was made. I'd welcome any feedback.[ATTACH]1256[/ATTACH]
