Benna Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Candle making is more fun than when I partied til the sun came up!Today while I test burned the container candles from yesterday I made votives in Dixie cups- they turned out ok, carved a candle – it kinda looked like I chopped it with an ax and I made a pillar. Well….it looks like its kinda puney.Whats the spots and what can I do to fix them?The white thingy isn’t a tape worm it’s the wick that I should have cut or hid before I took the picture.

SatinDucky Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Not real sure what you mean by puney, it looks ok. The top looks like you may have some mottling going on, but it's kinda hard to tell from the pic. I've never had mottling just on the top like that, but I guess it's possible. Either that or air bubbles. Is it smooth? If it's rough like air bubbles, you may need to heat the bottom of the mold a bit. The white on the side looks like you over shot your origional pour when you did the repour. It'll leave a line just about every time.
