I don't fill them to the top only because it is being melted in the cup. I fill them almost full but this will fill the gap. Maybe make it a different scent that compliments it Can't wait to see what u come up with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 141 compared to 4625. I believe this is what I'm going with. The 141 blended with 4627 Ky133 is great and easy but I believe the 141 is better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScentedPleasurez Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 My last test on palm and palm soy was pretty good. However I revisited them and got nothing lol. My test on ky133 went well after I figured out how to get rid of the lumps and bumps,and it seemed to perform well after a few days only. When I poured my last batch of candles I poured the left over wax in mini cups. Of course my wax is peanut butter so I scooped it out but they sure have good throw. So I know I'm keeping my messy wax but I didn't like palm and not planning on purchasing it. Which brought me to CW and their blends. Idk what magic they put in their blends but they are pretty awesome. I feel like I went around in a circle several times to end up back at my original plan..... idk why we keep doing this when we have "the perfect blend for us" already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for delay in response .I have some major house remodeling going on atm. I have tried CW 141 & did not like the high melting point .I do highly recommend their 129 for melts , great throw & great wax imo. The 129 has a much lower melting point for melts . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say Sarah s has the right idea on the 141 ,would have to be blended with a good container wax for melts . I use the 4625 pillar & blend with container for melts . I would think the 141 would be great for blending as well . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found the leak but had to drill part of that floor up. Which lead to this and that. Frustrating as ever. Ended up moving. Things will get better. Keep strong and pushing forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy the ones that sell junk and not that charge more than the supplier. A lot of people just want it gone. I look daily. That is actually my next project lol and the oils that go with the Crystal Rock salts. I love those salts. Wowww... @ShelleyF you buy so many fragrance oils girlfriend! I for one would LOVE to see a picture of your fragrance oil collection! I bet it's huge! Very lucky lady to find all of those destashes with brand new sealed oils. Especially the ones from Peak that you mentioned for $1 per pound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am reorganizing my room because I have stuff stashed here and there trying to find more room for it all. There are deals to be found. I might not get any one week but then get 3 the next. I stay away from expensive ones. Some people are wanting their space back lol so you jump on it. You have to be constantly looking as you never know when it will show up but I figure the ones I can't get aren't meant to be. I do want others to get great deals too. eBay has some often but we careful. Some are very old. I stay away from those. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I do when I find the small bottles is I make salt crystals. I don't make candles. I'm in the process of reorganizing my stuff. I don't store by brand.

I do. But trust me, not every cabinet or area for my candles is quite as neat as the entryway cabinet that's just where most of the ones I have from NG/RE/CS are. Downstairs I have several totes with more pound sized bottles in them as well as a tote full of 1 oz samples. So it's not all peaches and Cream over here trust me. I'm certainly FARRRRR... from perfect girlfriend 😜 I do tend to organize by company though as it just makes things easier for me to find that way. But some people like to keep Floral with Floral, fruity with fruity, bakery with bakery, etc.... How do you organzie yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in alphabetical order but have totes with A,B,C etc. Little bottles are thrown together. Was sorting but got tired of it. I cried I make what I want when I want to it's not that big of a deal. But I still want to find stuff. I'm so embarrassed I won't even let my family look in there. My husband is a professional cleaner and I won't let him in there. He would be trying to fix it lol I told him it was awful. He looked and then shut the door. He said wow you might need me to help you. No lol I will get to it. I don't have room to sort by company because I have so many companies. I don't have anywhere else but my Candle room to store anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they were like 15 bucks and they were 5 shelves. Made of plastic. I took the bottom part off and just took a piece of PVC pipe cut it for the legs and made another level. On the bottom I just slide my fo boxes underneath. I still have them and use them😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
