TreasureChestMemories Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Thank you to everyone who replied to my post about wicking mason jars. I am very sorry if I offended anyone. I am in no way trying to sneak around learning and firguring out my own thing. I guess I am just feeling overwhelmed from having such a big order to fill this week. Once again I very much appreciate all the wonderful knowledge I get here and am very sorry if I have stepped on any toes.ThanksTammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I don't know about stepping on toes, but I do agree that taking an order for a jar you've never made isn't a very good idea. Especially a large one due within a week. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureChestMemories Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Obviosly I do not want to drag this on but I did want to clarify so everyone here does not think I am a complete idot. My big order is for a jar size that I know how to do. I only need to make one of the Big Mason's. And you know there is a lot to be said for hindsight - I totally agree that I should have realized I was not in a position to take on something new this week. Thanks Again for the help,Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Tammy, thanks for the clarification! Peeps on here go nuts this time of year with all the candle maker wanna be's seeing quick bucks in their eyes for Christmas, LOL. Take a good guess on that jar and pour a tester. You can cheat a bit. Pour wickless and poke with a spoon handle or such. Remove the tabs and insert wicks. Set up with the heat gun. If they are not working, pull them out and try again. eObviosly I do not want to drag this on but I did want to clarify so everyone here does not think I am a complete idot.

kate573 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 it would sure take more than that to step on my toes. U will do just fine as long as you test it first.Good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 No toe stepping, but since you are a beginner I was a bit concerned about you just making and selling without testing and may have come across too harshly for you, but this isn't a business that anyone should just make and sell without being downright confident in their product. Good luck with the sizing on your mason jar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureChestMemories Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 Thanks for the setting me straight on the testing. I see everyones point. I tested all the others I sell and this one needs tested too. Stayed up late last night and I think I have it figured out! Thanks Again -Tam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
