PAgirl89 Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 Thanks! I also made Vanilla Sugar and Apple Jack. Wish I could make more votives, but I'm all out of wicks for the palm wax. CS recommended CSN9 wicks and I ordered a sample 5 pack, which I used in the Peppermint votives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wessex Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Good job on the votives. Just a heads up on wicking, I have found the CSN7 works better on some Feather votives (Apple Jack gave me an 11 hour burn with CSN9, 14 hour with CSN7). I have found that some scents definately last longer and throw well with the CSN7 wicks. Good thing about the 6 inch CS wicks is that you can wick two votives with each wick (using an extra wick tab).Cheers,Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAgirl89 Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 Thanks Steve for the suggestion. I'll have to keep that in mind and try the CSN7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAgirl89 Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 Well I test burned the Peppermint tarts yesterday. 1 tart was good for about 2/3 hours and then it fizzled. My second attempt was this morning and I didn't get the good throw I had yesterday, but it was decent.It sure does look pretty in the tart bowl, though.

I am burning mine mainly for the wicking. CD4 and it smells great. I have a Sweet Orange and Chili Peper addict in Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
