Circle Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Something different. I have had a few blisters on these:angry2: not sure why I get that with my rustics. Develop after around 2 weeks when the temp drops. I tried with chunks but I personally think that the chunks spoil the candles. Not a very good pic.[ATTACH]14867[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 The chunks in there give it a unique look. I rather like it myself You have a nice variety of shapes. Most look like 3", but the middle one looks like maybe a 2"? I haven't tried an narrow round one like that yet. What size wick did you use?

Pam W Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Very pretty and unique. I think they will be exceptionally pretty when lit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I like 'em. My guess on the blisters is they're trapped air from pouring too cool over chunks that grow to the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the wick local and it is called a No10 so no idea what the comparison on wick sizes is, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdmorgan Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 They really are beautiful candles!!!On the "blistering", Could it be fingernailing you're getting? I know alot of people were having trouble with it at one time. I had it too but only with one kind of wax. I placed a link below of one incident on the board. Since the candle is red, you can see it really well.http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4295&highlight=fingernail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Hi Circle,Gorgeous, gorgeous candles! Your sure are one talented lady....I really don't know what blisters are, but whatever they are, they look part of the candle....We all are so critical of ourselves...I'm my own worst critic! You did a beautiful job and I love your colorway!Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaxNSoap Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I think they look really, really nice! If it were me I'd probably look right past the blistering because even when I knew it was an unwanted feature, I was still impressed by your layering and colour choices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
