RobinInOR Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Another week gone, another week closer to the holidays Still madly catching up on stock. Just found out my suggestion for a craft fair at work has been approved, so there's one more fair I've got to prepare for.This weekend will be an interesting blend of scents - patchouli, orange, clove, rose, lavender, lemongrass - not all in one thing though! What's up in your neck of the woods? Have a great weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry, Lilac lovers; just can't stomach this one. But DANG does it sell. LOL)Lip Balms: Don't ask. Like half my stock is gone from a recent show. Seriously, I need to make Bubble Gum, Butter Pecan, Chai Tea, Gingersnap, Iced Pineapple & Tangerine, Sugared Strawberries, Vanilla, and my coffee eo one. FUN times when it comes to labeling those little pups. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxGirl Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'm testing a different wax. I was using CB Advanced, but decided since C-3 is cheaper to give it a try. So I'm pouring a few testers in Candied Yams and also in Shortbread. I love those 2 scents. I figure if I'm going to be smelling them, I'd make something I like!

ForHisGlory Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Melting as much of my leftover wax into firestarters. I'm using a dark brown for the bottom layer. I want them to look like mini cheescakes. Pretty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin146 Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I will be testing and doing more testing. On some pretty puter and glass candle holders. And making a bunch of tarts in my new oval 1oz plastic cups. Regina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wick'n'Wax Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 well, we have a house viewing on Sunday, and decide to minimalise before we found out we had a viewing, so IF I get chance, my plans were:Aroma Ornies, in twigs and berries, eggnog, oriental christmas and more canes, ready to decorate, a few more snowballs and then 'snow' them.I've also dug out all the christmassy samples I have, so will probably be making some melts or votives in those to test them.
