candlemom26 Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Ok so now that I decided to make candles which wax is better to use paraffin or soy/veggi? I am gonna start off making voltives first for a month or so untill I become more familiar with the candle making. All advice for a new candle maker will be highly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 The best wax is the one you end up liking. Suggestion is to try to get samples of all that is of interest to you and pick from there. That'll be a good month's worth of playing around and hubby shouldn't disapprove that lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Actually just ask the suppliers if they have samples. Usually you pay the cost of the shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
