The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. I think I have developed an adiction....almost as intense as fragrance addiction...almost.I am up to 12 wells, so the colors are not limited. I am not much into placing objects on them (ie cartoon characters, seascapes etc )....I know a lot of people like those...but for the fun of doing it, the ones with the most "carves" are the most fun and challenging.Anyone in the Dallas area, come on over and play. I'll let ya play with my colors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are still doing these, I may need one or maybe 2 before the holidays, Get your booty in gear!! These are so what I need!! I never did get back to the convention and they got to do these this past year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicaworld Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 You are certainly very skilled in this carving art. I believe it is the one of the toughest skills in candle making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinmfritz Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Absolutly beautiful. I wish I had the guts to try something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 So I saw the part where you said you were still getting the hang of it and didn't know what to expect only to see candles that look like a pro made them. Fantastic, I remember seeing these types of candles when I was younger but haven't seen any lately. It looks like it takes ages. Wish I lived in Texas so I could watch you making them.
