samandkennasmom Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hi,I do not dye my tarts, I use 100% soy with a bit of beeswax. Have a super day!Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmyfam77 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I do dye my tarts and I would rather not but I find that white ones don't sell as well. People like to match the colors to their rooms/house. I use the dye blocks from NG's. I really like how nicely it "melts". I have tried some others and I am always left with color specks that didn't fully dissolve so I am going to stick with NG's. Maybe one of these times I will try the liquid dye.

tootie04 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I dont dye mine either. I use 6oz tins for my wickless candles and I use tart/candle warmers for my tarts. So color does not matter.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coconut Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I use the liquid dyes and dye chips from Peak's. HTHI also use Peak's liquid dye. One bottle lasts a long time. I find it is easier to get the same colors consistently when I know how many drops per pound to use. I started with dye blocks but found them harder to measure. It is also easy to mix colors to get a special color. I drop the colored wax onto a small piece of marble that I keep in the refrigerator. It cools instantly and shows me what the color will look like. I keep a record of the color combos and quantities so it is easy to replicate. I feel color is a big part of presentation.

Candlebuddy Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I don't dye either, but when I did, I used the liquid dyes from Candle Science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
