Thank you all so much this is really going to help narrow things down some in placing an order. My funds are limited yet I want I want I want lol!! Thanks again...and have a great day!!

Has anyone purchased oils from Just Scent? It looks like they have so many interesting scents to try but the prices for the 1 oz & 4 oz samples and shipping are really high.

I am looking for just a good straight lime fo... without coconut, margarita, sugar just like a true lime. I got the one from Peaks and something about it makes me sick. It doesn't have the sharp tart real notes to it. Does anyone here know of one? Thanks

Hi there, Where do you find the best quality CD wicks. I used to get them from Tennessee candle supplies but they have stopped carrying them. Thanks so much

I love CS peppermint bark. I love mint oils though and love chocolate and that is what I smell. I didn't care for Cypress & Berries it didn't smell of anything distinct to me, it just smelt perfume-y and I don't care for the perfume type scents. Harvest Berry is smelling nice I need to put it in the wax. I find their new Mistletoe to be better than their last. I smell more of the fir needle. It just goes to show that scent is such a personal thing. What smells great to one doesn't always smell good to the other.

Sorry, but it seems that Stella has won the argument here... just scroll down where it talks about (jars) these baby (jars) and you will see for yourself. I think it is fine to make these for a baby shower for friends or just immediate friends but to sell at stores you might want to be a little careful! http://www.canning-food-recipes.com/canning.htm

I really appreciate Stella's helpful guidance. She is a wonderful asset to this forum. She is always going out of her way to be super helpful. And when dealing with FIRE it is always best to play safe.

Did you find the Premier wicks to have more mushrooms then the CDN's?

I have to mention one very positive about these Premier 700 wicks. The flame is very steady there is no flickering or dancing.

No I didn't use much fragrance only 4 grams per 4 ounce cup. I probably could wick up to see if that would make a difference when I'm not so burnt out (no pun intended) the next set up would be the 740 and 745 but am afraid that it might produce a giant flame but who knows it just might not? I have to play around later after Christmas but for now I'm sticking to my oldies but goodies.

Hi there, I thought this was going to be the miracle wick but for me it isn't. I am sticking with the CD's and CDN's. I guess I could further test but with the two tests that I did one of them mushroomed quite a bit and the other one barely burned. I don't have time to go through these wicks and for me it still seems that the CD family works best in Ecosoya 135.

Yes this oil is super hard to wick but after millions of tests I found that in my 4 oz -2.7 diameter cup using Ecosoya 135 with only 3 grams of fragrance and a Eco 4 wick this burns nice and the scent comes through even with this little amount of FO. This took me at least 8 candle tests to get this right. I have found this oil to be a love or a hate with the customers. I usually don't like sweet scents but I like this one so does my mom and my nieces.

Hi there, I did my first burn test using the Premier 700 series using the 730 and the 735 with the Ecosoya 135 in a 2.70 diameter container. Well the interesting thing is the 730 is burning hotter with a larger flame and more of the diameter than the 735. So it looks like it doesn't mean that the higher number is the larger wick. I will burn these again later today and see what happens. I will keep you all posted. Happy Holidays!

Thanks so much...Stella to the rescue once again!!!

Hi... I wonder if anyone knows which Premier 700 wick is equal to cd 8 and also one that is equal to the cd 7? Thanks much, ellen:smiley2:
