Paulette Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I am sure all of us have done that at one point or another. When I have the same color I just make one color a shade darker or lighter than they others. I have this problem with fall scents and xmas scents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrysoaper Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I have done that before. What i do it put the candle into the oven on a low setting, wait for it to melt, then I add extra color to it. It works everytime. I hope this helps!Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 You've got a lot of choices to choose from for Fall colors. Tan, Brown, Orange Brown, Red Brown, Burgundy, Light Yellow, Yellow, Dark Yellow, Orange Yellow, Red, Dark Red, Orange Red, Light Orange, Orange, Dark Orange, Purple, Red Purple.Buy a large box of cayons to use as a color pallet to choose from.

sudsnwicks Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Can also look at clothing catalogs for a range of fall colors. Basics like t-shirts usually come in many of these shades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaW Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Yeah, I think most of us have done that. I was making carrot cake, pumpkin spice and sweet potato pie and darned if they weren't the same color in the jar even though they looked different on my test plate. Oh well, at least they smelled good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
