bella soy Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Hey ya go. This is what I did all day. The bottoms three candles are the layers that I told you all I was doing. They turned out good for my first time I think. The Tall Grass Fo is really strong though. It dominates the other scents.The other are candles using the 70/30 blend. The two on top are the 4 oz. baby food jars that Im testing Citronella in.The purple is VinyardThe green is Key LimeThey light yellow is Lemon Pound cakethe pink is cucumber cantaloupe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bella soy Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Well the idea was that the orange would burn first then the tall grass will come in and mix alittle but the tall grass is so strong im not sure its going to smell nice. The original plan was to have the tall grass kinda clear the nose because it was suppose to be a light fresh scent before you dove in the vinyard. I dont know well see when I test in a few day! ill keep ya posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bev Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Very nice layers! I am going to have to try layers ... those are great! Be sure to let us know how they smell when burned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I think it looks really nice. If TG is too overpowering, you could cut back on the FO a bit for that layer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sally Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 As a newbie to soy your layered candles are an inspiration. Am still playing with my first batch of soy, all candles undyed so far, & still lots to learn about the scenting process. Hope its not too long before I can produce some that look as good as yours.
