Soja Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I made these by pouring wax into a cookie sheet, waiting for it to almost harden, then scooping into a mold, heat gunned the big one but NOT the small one. The yellow is a mistake, I dropped some diluted yellow dye into it just to see what it would do.Scent is Christmas Pine.Still not the marble I'm hoping for.Soja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geekrunner Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 The right one looks better. My first attempts at marbles I used a two lb pour pot, and the candle came out kinda homogenized. For my third, I used a bread loaf pan, four drops of dye, about six quick stirs with my spoon, then poured into pre-heated mold. I made a mess! I tapped the mold up and down a few times then heat gunned the mold ab 30 seconds.Keep trying, you'll get it! geek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaritamama Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 It might not be the marble you were hoping for, but I think they are very beautiful, and I would definitely display them in my home! I love the colors, and the unevenness of the marble. Good Job!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I really like the one on the right, the one on the left looks like it could have used a couple more stirs. Let us know how they burn....I've been having air bubble troubles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
