Linda's favorite Rustic

Recommended Posts

My latest rustic, F.O. Sea Breeze. My W.W. Linda told me these kind were her favorite so these are for her.

A question for the rustic lovers, how do you cool the mold after the first pour? You can see on the one candle, the rustic quit working and some mottel even started! How do you cool the mold without cooling the wax so much that it pulls away from the mold and you get 'Leakage'.?

Thanks for looking

very nice!

I have a pan of ice water with a dish cloth. Use the ice water to cool the dish cloth, use the dish cloth to wrap the mold just enough to cool it a few degrees. Sometimes I just let the mottle come through...adds character.

I certainly don't see anything wrong with those. I think they are very pretty. I like all kinds of textures mixed up. But if you are trying to create a certain look it can drive you nuts. I just let mine be what they are. Try the cool rag in water.....Donita
