Saphakasha Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I honestly don't know what I was thinking with these two candles.. oh wait, yes I do, I was thinking that they would be magnificent and they turned out... well, fugly. My husband thinks this one is neat looking and sort of like a candy cane. He already wants me to make some for Christmas.This one here... oh my... it actually would have turned out nice, but it slipped into a vat of hot wax and nearly drowned! I saved its life, but it will never be the same again. So there are my two contributions... I'm sure I will be adding many, many, many more... *sighs*...-T.

diamondgirl_26 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I hate when I have something in mind and it doesnt come out the way I imagined. The candy cane one isn't too bad, but the blue one is pretty fugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 So sorry they didn't turn out the way you wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzie Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Yes, well ... I know how it is when one has a fantastic vision in mind and can hardly wait for the great unveiling ... then that awful moment when excited, anticipation turns to horror and dismay. You are definitely not alone. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garf Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I could certainly contribute to this hall of shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtngrl Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 While the blue one may have suffered ... greatly, I LOVE the color. AND, good for you for experimenting w/ some irregular shaped chunks. I'm sure these two experiments will, in the end, only enhance your ability to make better candles next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
