jennhalcyon Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 My one "CANDLEMAKING" Christmas wish would be that I would guess the right size/type wick on my FIRST test burn!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violetsexoticcandles Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 My one "CANDLEMAKING" Christmas wish would be that I would guess the right size/type wick on my FIRST test burn!!!!I got that last week! I made a ball candle out of ecosoya PB with English Garden FO from CS and used a zinc wick (size 60 something). It burned very nicely and left a perfect shell that I am sure will be great to stick a tealight in once it's burned all the way. My one Candlemaking Christmas wish would be to finally be able to wick my palm pillars! LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHisGlory Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 That my wax would talk to me BEFORE I put in the FO and dye. And if it ever does - THE BACK DOOR IS MINE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artcwolf Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 My wish is to wake up in the morning with all of your collective knowledge on candle making, so i'm not spending all the $ i am on candle testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vio Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I'd wish that a craft superstore would open up in my area, that has specialty departments with everything you could ever want for candle making and b&b, at the best prices and quality ever heard of, with every wax and fo ever invented, like 5 minutes from me so I could walk in and buy stuff and never pay shipping on anything! I'd also want it to be not well known though. LOL I'd wish that after health for anyone I know, especially my family, and world peace of course.

grama Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 If you are For His Glory then I'am right there with you. I talk to my wax, fo, wicks, molds, jars, and then just myself. Pepper hears me talking and thinks someone is in here with me and comes running. She just knows she is fixing to get some loving. Customers all love her and just get on floor and play with her most of the time. Pepper = DogMy Christmas wish would be that I would wake up Christmas Day and my shop would be spanking clean, and everything organized, all the clutter gone, what I don't use and will never use just gone.

My daughter bought a cute little dog. She brought it to her shop a few times. It's way too hyper to stay, but when it was there everyone loved it!The dog in my avatar belongs to one of my sisters. I thought it was cute the way it peaked out from under the curtain. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A space with a dipping tank for six different colors, a four burner stove, lots of light to see, plenty of outlets for plugs, cabinets and drawers for my stuff, a hard concrete floor so I won't have to worry about spills, a table, large counters, a television with cable, a sink, a chair and a lock on the door. MMMMMMM my own spaaaace! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vio Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 LOL Oh this is going to be fun. I wonder if when I start making candles, I'll wish for the same thing? LOLI have an area in the basement I've already suggested putting aside for my candle making, but no stove. No biggie though because I'm going to use my daisy crack/fryer. I can heat jars with the heat gun if I have to. Cooler in the basement though. Unfinished. The wood stove keeps it comfortable, but it's still got a little chill. Is that bad? For the candles?
