Testing a new wax (to me anyway) and a few new fo's, so far I've done... Strawberry Rhubarb Squares Caramel Cheesecake Orange Chiffon Cake Pink Marshmellow Green Apple & Pear Cucumber & Lime Monkey Toots and Sugar Cookie Dough Bread

thank you...is that the 44-24 or 44-32?

I would like to try a container paraffin candle (4630) and have LXs and a sample pack of zincs...would appreciate a starting point for either the 8 oz square Mainstay mason jar or the 16oz Mainstay jar, tia!

Those sound really good! How are the tinted balms coming along? ; )

They look amazing!!

We all know how very difficult wicking can be, but I think we might be worryimg a bit too much when testing wickless products. Dave :highfive:

The Candle Source

I use CDN's (I buy mine from Funflames) and haven't had any problems...but I haven't bought a case of C3 recently.

Ive been buying C3 from Lonestar for past few years and have never had any problems with the wax or LS...hth.

I use CS too...no off smell whatsoever and they work great.

Hi, I started with CBA, beautiful candle but ht left much to be desired, moved on to GB464 but didnt stay with it long then settled on C3. I would make 3 tester jars with same fo but with different wicks ie ECO, HTP, CDN...then whichever 'burn' I liked best with that wax is the one I'd go with. Then start testing sizes to jar/fo. For the most part, I prefer CDNs and Premiers. As far as the one ouncer's...make 2 jj (or whatever container you will be using) testers with different wicks for each fo to start. For soy, I've gotten great results using 1 ounce fo to 12 ounces of wax...remember to let cure for a week if testing for ht. Hth

[quote=moonshine;1003216.... I could not find these jars at my Walmart either or online... Could you post what Walmart you got them from So I can call and find out the scoop on where to get them. El Mirage, AZ

Ive made hundreds of candles over the past few years with Mainstay jars and to date, never had one crack or shatter. I did however, have a Ball jj's bottom seperate fronm the jar when I was melting it down in a pot of boiling water.

Same here...Viva works great!

That looks amazing...and delicious : )

Aroma Haven/Rustic Esscentials Candle Science Peak

I just made a tester using 6 ounces wax+fo...filled it perfectly with just a tad left over, hth.

Thank you for posting the pic...went to Walmart early this morning and bought all they had, love them!

They're amazing...truly talented!
