Mozzie Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Hi Sabrina, I have one just like that at home (only one she exclaims!!). The heat gun does make a difference BUT BEWARE if you heat it too much it will loosen the seal around your wick hole and the wax will escape (or so a friend told me - it wouldn't happen to me - oh no!). LOL Mozzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassy21 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I still think it looks very nice. It reminds me of a strawberry creamsaver. ( I think thats the name of the candy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybersix Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 Thanks to all, I *knew* I had to use the heat gun but something in my mind broke, and I didn't!Oh and I noticed how hard is to get an unscented candle out of a metal mold!!!

SatinDucky Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 It doesn't look too bad and you got the idea real well. It will make a good tester anyway. I discovered that the wicking is quite different for unscented, as well as hard to unmold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybersix Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 Hi Ducky. When I couldn't get it out of the mold came to my mind you wrote a thread about it.That was another thing I knew, but simply forget!I made it unscented because it was a test.Bye!
