Yes I took pictures. I will include them in my message to Lone Star. I am wishing I was off work tomorrow now though, so I could start tomorrow.

I used LoneStar Candle Supply. I actually ordered my supplies before I found this site and was nervous that I may have jumped the gun on ordering once I saw all these other suppliers being recommended on this site. But, I read one thread that recommended them, so I felt better. Now, I am back to thinking next time I might try a different supplier.

I have been so excited ever since I placed my order. It came today and my hubby called to tell me it had arrived. He told me the box was split down one corner completely to the point that the peanuts were falling out. I had him open it immediately to check the damage. My pouring pot was squashed. He was able to pull it back out to somewhat resemble what it should have, but I am the type of person who likes new things because they are perfect. Then one of my jars has a huge chunk missing out of the lid. . But, I think that was actually there when they packed it, because it was the middle jar in the box of jars. I know I don't really need the lid to burn the candle, but again, I like new things because they are perfect. Also, one of my scent seems to have this greasy stuff all over the outside of the bottle, so I had to wipe it and my hands down real good after handling it the first time. I am going to contact the supplier tommorrow and I hope they offer to make it right, but what a let down. But, even with the damaged products, I still get to pour my first candle this weekend, so I am still excited about that and even my hubby is excited. He was telling me all sorts of ideas he came up with today for us to make once we get somewhat good, lol.

I am so glad to know I am not the only one excited enough to track their package. Mine is due to arrive today; but unfortunatley, I will not get to "play" until this weekend due to a project at work that is keeping me busy until late at night and a 15 month old who Demands attention, lol. But, I am still excited none the less and will at least get to pilfer through my goodies when I get home. Thanks for the info. I am going today on my lunch hour to see if I can find these in a local store around here to have on hand.

I am not even a week old to candle making, as I am still waiting for my supplies (just ordered them yesterday). I have already starting bookmarkig several threads and am adding this one also. Lots of great information for newbies in here. So thanks again to all the posters for the great info. It is good to know to try FOs from different places.

Wow, is all I have to say. Thanks for the information. I am very new to all of this and am reading, reading, reading, before my supplies arrive. This was very useful and I think I might have to search posts by you to see what else I can dig up.
