Dee Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Very pretty!!!! Tried the formula too, but it didn't work like that. Think it was the FO. Not strong enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donita Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 hehehe.....I think jokerjen is joking us....LOL Her formula of 48oz wax, 3T steric, 4 beads vybar 103 and 1.7 oz oil works in her wax. That is the first "cone tree" I posted.....so then I doubled her formula for the second one...too much mottle....so the newest, all dark green, is 1/2 of those two, ie. 3lbs wax, 3T steric, 3% FO and 4 beads vybar 103. My wax is 4045H....I told her that she is the Queen of mottling without oil.....LOL..I am getting closer to what I was going for. Poured at 180. Back to rustics today.

topofmurrayhill Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Using my hands made for a much nicer finish.....Oh yes Donita, I probably should have mentioned that my hands are in the process of withering and dropping off. Damn that pesky FO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerjen Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Very nice Donita....See..like I said what works for one does not necessarily work for another....now do you think you could duplicate it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alohagirl Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Wow, I like this one best! P.S. Have you gotten the scent off YOUR hands yet, or do they fragrance a room wherever you go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geekrunner Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I have a hex cone mold I want to try for a Christmas tree. I just have to find and seal the leak... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 If you don't seal the leak, you will use less wax...... Donita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 LOL! Not only is she an pro candle maker, she is a comedian as well, LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 Thanks! If you don't have humor you have nothing. My friend who is a chiropractor said she had to choose between being a stand up comedian or doctor because they both help people heal............

sharyl55 Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I knew it. Just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. The 3rd time is the charm. I love this one. Another picture for my pillar notebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
