SonShine Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 First of all, I'd like to thank everyone that has helped me in this venture. You've all be so wonderful and giving of advice. What a blessing to me!I recently made some container candles and was wondering where I should store them....in warm temps or cool temps? In the house, or in the garage? Does storage temp make a difference in curing and scent throw?Thanks so much for suggestions! Suzy, Chicago Burbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 In my experience, if you store them in a place that's too cool (maybe below 60) you get frosting. If you store them too warm (maybe above 78?) they get soft. So somewhere in between! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonShine Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 Thanks so much Marilyn for your answer! I really appreciate it....and I guess I'll get these puppies out of the cool sun room and into the house! hehe!Suzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Hi! I have a candle shop that is 20x40 feet and I do not keep the a/c on all summer long. I have found that in the Texas heat the bakery scents tend to bleed the oils, like the vanillas, etc.... The rest of our shop gets very hot, I would think like a closed garage, so I wouldn't suggest that. The house sounds better. HTH!I love this board as well!

SonShine Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Wow...lucky you to have a 20 X 40 shop! I have a 20 X 20 family room I suppose I could convert to a candle shop, but then hubby would probably kick me out since he has to have his big screen TV. lol However, I still would love that shop size!Thanks for the tips, too!Suzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
