Wick'n'Wax Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Hiya,this is the 2nd rustic I've done, only this time I used stearic.Its strawberry, milk chocolate and frosted cupcake. I think the colours go quite well.Its not perfect, a lot of frosting came off the top part (poured at 140) and theres a little blending a couple of times between layers, but I'm extremely happy It smells lovely tooI poured at 140, then 150, 160 and last after being told my mistake (thanks anjie xx) poured last at 140 again.What you reckon?

sugarysweet95 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I find w layers i pour all mine at the same temp, only do the final repour hotter. If the wax is a still a bit soft in the mould, the next layer should stick to it fine anyway!Wish i could post some pics of my rustics, i made some nice oceany ones (after inspiration from here). Oh wellThat silly post attachment link is not there!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wick'n'Wax Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 I fancy some blues and emerald green next, but not sure if I can get the right green from what I've got. I have moss green and chartruse (sp)I don't have any sea type FO's though lol, mine are all edible smells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarysweet95 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Hehe, you could be random and mix a foody smell with oceany colours!!!You could maybe try mixing colours a bit, i do that too and come up with some great colours, especially if i want the candle layers to blend together more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
