Vee Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Hey guys how does one seal the fragrance inside the candle... once it is ready. Is it necessary to wrap it in shrink plastic or in cling wrap. I have been struggling to find info on this online. Cling film looks tacky at the folds...cello phane paper is so labor intensive... please do share what you guys do and suggestions are more than welcome... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debratant Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I have a shrink wrapper, but you can buy these bags below. I have gotten them at jo ann fabrics. I have the tall ones and pillars fit right in them and you can tie it label it and put a cute bow on it. I use these when I don't feel like shrink wrapping, but I am just gift giving. https://www.amazon.com/Clear-Cello-Cellophane-Bags-Gusseted/dp/B001E5P6AY I just saw your pics, those are all beautiful! Not sure the cello bags would work for some of them. I do not know what sizes the cellos come in, but I've only seen the small and larger ones at joanns I would not use plastic cling wrap.

nursenancy Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Candles and photos are beautiful! I wish I could take photos like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesinflorida Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The pictures are fantastic-what kind of set-up do you use? And how do you do those cute curly-cue wicks-with a pencil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use a pencil or bamboo skewer, depending on how tight you want the curly cue to be...:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesinflorida Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Thanks-it’s a cute look! how do you get your pictures to look so even and well-lit? I have a photo tent and light it from the sides with a reflector in the front, but thinking of buying a tent with attached LED strips for more even lighting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) I'm distracted by the intriguing beauty of the second photo ... is this a dye swirl/dip in hot water? Or a heat gun tye-dye job? Or neither? We use shrink bags and they seem to be fairly conforming to the shape of your object. However, you'll want whatever you do to conform to some label possibility.
