Rosebud Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 What beautiful candles...... I have only just been doing container candles... a bit scared to venture into the molded..... they are just beautiful.....:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everito Bandito Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Nice looking candles and I like that you dare to be different with many shapes. Summer doldrums will be over a in couple of months. Hope you were able to turn enough to make this one worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumina Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 It wasn't bad. I think I have a good day when I make over $40. I know it doesn't seem like much, for 6 hrs in the heat. I still try to think of it as marketing. Trying to put myself out there. I have a long range plan in my mind and on paper. It may take me a few years but I want to be a full time candle maker. Thank you everyone for looking and giving me some great feedback.Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jennifer Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Very pretty candles!! and speaking of hot, we are expecting a temperature of 104 with a heat index around or above 110 here in northwest Oklahoma. 92 sounds like a blessing **almost**we need a little smiley face that's beat red and dripping sweat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flutterbye Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I love all your candles! I love the star ones on the left. Is the one corner of the star stretching out further than the others? If so, where did you get that mold?? I've been trying to find one like that forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmen3032 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 That is one beautiful display of candles you got there. very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern-Marie Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 One suggestion, artistically speaking, the plaid undercloth pulled my focus away from the candles. Maybe it's the picture set up? But you don't want something that will stand out and detract from the candles. Plain would be better, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you don't want something that will stand out and detract from the candles. Plain would be better, I think.You could be right. I have several different types of napkins that I use. I'll take a few more pictures with the plain ones to see the difference. Thanks for pointint that out to me.Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never looked there before, but I found it. Their prices are pretty reasonable too. Thanks for introducing me to this place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
