jenphelps1972 Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Thank you all for your kind remarks. I've only been making candles for about four weeks now. I really enjoy it. Those snow balls were a real hassle...one of my molds leaked... I was so cranky I nearly threw the entire thing in the trash....wax, mold, and all. Thankfully I perservered, and they turned out nice. But such work! Not sure it will be worth it, depends on what kind of money I get out of them. If they dont sell for what I want...I may just have to keep them for myself As for the peanut butter chunkies....I made chunks scented...you guessed it...peanut butter and other chunks scented hersheys chocolate. The over coat is scented with sugar cookie dough. I have one burning now and it smells yummm. This is so much fun!!!! Now lets just pray its a profitable hobby.

Grumpy Girl Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Just curious... and I can't really tell from the photo, but how many wicks are in the pink jelly jar candle? The second/third? wick looks awfully close to the rim of the jar from the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalamazoo Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I love those glittery snowballs. Have not got up the nerve to do any of those yet and would hate to have to test burn them after all the work that goes into making them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherri in Canada Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I love the look of the different size snowballs....can you share where you got your mold? I have one but it's not nearly as round looking as yours, really flat on the bottom.Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
