GrayMaire Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 This is my first rustic pillar, and my second pillar ever - usually do jars, votives, tarts. I finally got a chance to try my hand at them, and I want to thank all the experts here that so generously share their expertise! Any suggestions/critiques, etc., are more than welcome. This is scented Vanilla Voodoo from Candle Cocoon at 6%, IGI 1343 with stearic, WSP's ivory dye in half the wax. (The camera flash washed out some of the "rustic," though.) Thanks for looking!

sharyl55 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 A good looking 1st rustic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnjieBurdett Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 That looks fab! The colours are wonderful and subtle, I really like that, well done. Isn't it a great feeling when that candle slides out of that mould and you've done it, you've made that rustic? Anjie,x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrayMaire Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 Thanks for the nice comments! And yes, Anjie - you're exactly right! It was SO exciting when I slid that candle out of the mold. Felt like a little kid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donita Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Your candle looks great. Did you know that Vanilla Voodoo was used in candles that were in gift baskets for the Academy Awards? It is great. I love it....it is Vanilla and ???????????? Donita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
