Candle Man Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Looks good.How well do they burn? The reason I ask is, it doesen't look like a single wick will burn that one half.Did you buy that mold like that or did you come up with something or cut the wax?

Georgia Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Candle Man, you usually burn them together.Sabrina, I really like them. I have been looking at that mold also, but was wondering how you level them and get them even. I see you don't have that answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsvlbrat Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 When you make the candle, you pour 1 color with the zig zag in the middle. Then you make another candle using a different color. Put the different color sides together (oops....probably wasn't susposed to tell how they are made!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jes432 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 I think they're pretty cool. I like them, something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzie Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Sabrina, what's not to like? I'm sure that your friend will love them - they've turned out really well. Great colours too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybersix Posted November 29, 2006 Author Share Posted November 29, 2006 Thanks to all.I don't know if I like them so rustics. I sent the pics to my friend and will see what she thinks.The mold is a round 4" mold with two holes and a divider to be put in the middle.But you have to pour one colour at time.Then when they are cooled they are separated.Leveling is a bit of pain. Those in the pics are not leveled, you must be precise when pouring, using the same amount of wax and trying to pour at the same level.I burn them separately they have a 18 flat braid, and it works fine.But you can burn them together as if it's one two wicks pillar.I like them separated. One thing you can do is doing the two halves in different heights, and it seem a little sculpture.Thans again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late Night Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Ohhh, I like them a lot. I could see burning two different scents at the same time creating a unique smell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candlesprite7 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 They do look great! I have been working with a similar mold, a Yin Yang mold... I think your's look great! I love the colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaColo Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Both of the candles look great. It's hard to decide, but I like the one with two different colors a little bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdmorgan Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 They really look great and I think making them 2 different heights would give it a beautiful and unique look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Candle Man, you usually burn them together.Sabrina, I really like them. I have been looking at that mold also, but was wondering how you level them and get them even. I see you don't have that answer. Not sure if this has been answered yet as I haven't read further down. What I do with my mold like this, is I put the 2 that are going to make one candle (like one side red, one side yellow) I put those halves together and then put a level on top of them and put them on my leveler. That way they end up the same height as well as both being level. This also helps them stick together a bit better. HTH and that it makes sense.

monkeybritches Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Those are very cute. I haven't seen the zig zag mold before. I really think you will do good with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sed8ed Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I too have that mold along with the yin yang, I really like the way they look however, I haven't had any luck wicking them to burn correctly as two seperate candles. Yours look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
