Vicky_CO Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Not much for me as I am try to get over the flu. If I get to feeling better I am going to make some tarts. I am running out and my sister has asked for a few candles so maybe them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Finally got Vanilla Chai from Aztec in 464 wax and I'm testing it tonight. Sadly, not much throw hot or cold for me. I'll come back and burn it again in a week and see if that changes.The containers I am testing are poly carbonate, and I have to say that I am SUPER impressed right now. I bought samples and need some smaller wicks for 2 of them, but the maxi tea light and the 4 oz cup are really nice. So far after 2.5 hours of burning and having reach FMP an hour ago, they don't get quite as hot as glass or tin. As the 4 oz cup burns down I'll pay very close attention to it.The maxi tealight hold about 1.6 oz of 464 filled to capacity, and the cup holds 4 oz with 1/4 inch left unfilled at the top. After a few other waxes are tested I may do a coop buy for some of the poly carbonate containers. I want to give them a thorough test before I commit to buying several hundred.

Unique candles Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Hi, I am saving all my extra wax to make tealight, and testing more 135 soy wax with different fragrance and colors.Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I'm not sure exactly what FO's I'll be pouring but plan to pour some more clean and tropical scents to get ready for spring and summer! Not my favorite but it seems like that's what people are starting to ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Got 2 packages of FO's yesterday. Tossed in some new ones to try with my orders. Will be pouring the new ones and also pouring a full batch of one that made it through my testing any will be joining my lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I'm easing back into a little pouring this morning. Black Raspberry Vanilla was calling me:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerWicks Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) I can send you the smaller wicks. Please don't buy any, I'll never use them!

tam1116 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I made a road trip to Fillmore Containers yesterday for wax I was completely out . So I will be pouring lots of candles that I am out of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I have a friend coming over to give her an "in-person" tutorial on making picture hurricanes, marbled pillars and we'll probably end up making a couple batches of soap as well. Then tomorrow I have a few new types of soap techniques I want to try out. If they work out, I'll post the results. So that plus my normal weekend routine of cleaning/laundry, catching up on DVR'd shows. It'll be a nice productive weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puma52 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Nothing in my pot this weekend... fighting a nasty cold that I have been battling all week...ugh!!! So over IT!!! Got orders yesterday that I do not need to make until next weekend...floating candles and pillars. Will be ordering some Spring scents. But am planning on chilling out, drinking coffee....taking a couple xtra naps and thinking Spring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Well I think after horse chores I am going to finally get my Unproductive butt downstairs and start pouring....I am out of everything pretty much candle wise and haven't a clue where to start.... Maybe some lilac and lavender to think spring and although I hate fruity ones maybe some passionfruit guava and grapefruit and mangoWe will see...one of these days I have to get back at it- winter has made me very un-motivated and lethargic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Got mine all poured, everything cleaned and put back up. Not certain that I have any winners with the 8 new I poured. I am too picky. Will see when I melt and start testing later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 My friend got here about 9 this morning, and just now left. We made 2 picture hurricanes, a marbled pillar and a batch of soap. It was a good day! Tomorrow I need to clean up the area, then I need to make lotion. Then I think I'm done for the weekend. LOL Had a blast but now I need a nap!
