HeavenScentU Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 They look yummy.... I love the colors...I bet they smell awesome.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsbennis Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 Thanks Jl...I appreciate that. My hubby told me not to quit my day job anytime soon after he saw them...lol I wasn't sure how to make the chunks so I put them in a baking pan and I didn't pour enough wax in so they came out very thin. Then I decided to stick them in the freezer before I cut them... when I took them back out to cut them they were cracking and breaking like crazy. So if you actually saw the chunks when I was done with them you would probably see what I'm talking about...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
