Scented Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 We saw some candles at Wal-Mart with pin holes all over the surface recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharyl55 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Love that mold. Too bad about the pin holes. Know how you feel. I've just repoured my red current votives for the 3rd time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henryk Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I think I got a few of those pin holes in my first 1343 rustic - are rustics supposed to have some of them or not? What usually causes them? Sorry to highjack thread, but this is the first pic I've seen that shows them perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alohagirl Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I love that embedded rose. Is that a two-piece mold?P.S. HenryK, when rustics are poured so cool that bubbles have formed, you can get little holes on the surface. Most peeps feel they add to the beauty of the rustic. If you have tons of tiny holes though, that can be caused by mold release spray. Be sure to wipe out the excess with a paper towel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just repoured my red current votives for the 3rd time.That mold is really a metal planter that I got at Wallyworld for .97 and I didn't think it would work, but figured if it didn't I'd use it for something, so guess I've got a good mold. I like to experiment with things. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlelady4ever Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hey Lola, I brought the one with ivy on it and pull English Ivy in it. It came out with pin holes too. I figure I poured too hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
