Kaybee23 Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 As a die hard soy user, I have made the dive into paraffin and have attempted my first mottle. The picture doesn't do it justice, as I don't have the best digital camera, but you get the idea. Thanks for looking. Oh, and it is scented Cherry Slush.

lindsaycb Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Its your first? No way! That's one perfect mottle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Share Posted October 10, 2005 Thank you all for your nice comments. I used 1343 with 3/4 tsp of paraflint and 8% FO. I would really like to try one of those that isn't so mottled, just spotty mottling. I am having so much fun playing in this wax. Even though I am sure I will never come up with a lot of the beauties I have seen on here, I am going to have a ball trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherie Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Awesome job Kerry! I love the color and it's perfect for that scent! Uh Oh, looks like she's been bit by the paraffin bug, lol! :highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
