Yoshi Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I was wondering how can I get the colors of my candles to come out darker using Ecosoya CB Advanced Soy Wax and Dye Chips from CS . I've tried adding two chips of the same color but it doesn't seem to work.TIA.------------------------Yoshi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindanelson Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Hi and welcome.Add a little bit at a time of black or brown to your color. Test your color by dropping a little on a white paper towel/plate or on wax paper. Let it set up to see the end color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Make sure you retest your candle after you change the dye amount. Certain colors are more difficult to burn and may change your wicking. I have to wick up with CS Mahogany Brown dye chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
