Thanks for the input!! I like the variety of the FO's - I will dabble maybe down the road with EO's or here and there. Long road is right, I'm pregnant with my second and due in May. Got my hands full! At least it will be a fun hobby for now. I ordered all the equipment I need today, so I'm very excited.

You seem very encouraging. Honestly, I'm just trying to learn and I am aspiring to find a hobby I like to turn into a business. I understand it will take quite some time, so I am trying to learn all I can and get all my facts so I can write them down and reference. Something I learned as a child: If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

I love mine. I haven't used anything else to compare it to.

I have discovered it's more expensive, so I'm gonna get some FO instead. I eventually aim to use EO/Soy tarts because when I asked people if j were to eventually sell them what would they like to see and all that responded stated EO. I think it's the "all-natural" appeal.

1) what can be used to measure your FO instead of a scale? 2) is there a measuring difference between essential oils and fragrance oils?

That does thank you

Maybe it's Yo Gabba Gabba in the background and me trying to read LOL but I am slightly confused. In the first part of your post you said if your using 8 ounces worth of tart cups, then you need 8 ounces of wax. But the last part is something about subtraction (math unfriendly here) and it came up to 7.52. So do I need 8 ounces of wax like originally stated or 7.52 ounces of wax (or can I round it out. Also one other question, do I use the same amount of EO as I would FO? I plan to use EO's instead. Also, I'm learning I need more EO lol Gonna buy some Thanks again for the help, honestly, this board has taught me so much. I thought this would be ultra easy, but looks like I need more stuff. I don't have a scale or anything. I was gonna jimmy rig up a melting pot. Ghetto Tarts

I can not find a recipe for a small batch of tarts. I have been searching this forum and only found the 1lb, 1 ounce of EO/FO recipe's. I am waiting for my order that I got on Amazon of Soy 444. I understand NOW that this is for jar candles, but this is just to learn how to make tarts (melting process, etc) so I don't mind if it is a softer wax. I would like to make maybe 2-3 small tarts. Any recipe's for that? Thanks for the help.
