girlyracer Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Finally got round to making my very first container candles ever .I got some starter kits delivered earlier in the week. I'm using Soy, Ecosoya I believe. I left them uncoloured, they look a bit boring but I'm well pleased with the results I got. I made a 1lb honey jar, a tavel jar and a yoghurt pot. All have got nice smooth tops. A few wet spots and some jump lines. That must have been 'cos I didn't warm the jars. They smell great cold and I can't wait to test burn them in a week or two.Pics 21 & 22 are of my honey jar.Pics 19 & 20 are of my travel jar.I've definately been bitten by the bug now. Got to get more wax and more smells .Ruby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Is it me or is the wick off on the fourth picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlyracer Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 No, it's not you your eyesight is fine. It is a tad off, the wick must've moved whilst pouring. Either that or I've got dodgy bamboo skewers:whistle:.Thanks everyone. They wouldn't have turned out this good if it wasn't for you guys on this forum. The wealth of information here is awesome. For any other newbies out htere this is definitely the right place to be.Thanks guys:rockon:Ruby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Now can I see a really close up shot? I'm asking, because I haven't ever looked at a soy candle close up. I wanna see what it looks like, please. By the way, those jars do look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
