jaxxcandles Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 For me I would say cleanup. I can't leave things out so I hate getting on a roll and having to then clean up and put things away. I so need an area to just create, create, create. I would say labeling would be second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 enjoy everything about it. EXCEPT clean-up... I hate cleaning out my pouring pots and such..I decided not to fight that battle. I have a pour pot (or three) for each scent I carry! Each pot holds 6lbs and I have over 50 scents. Yes, that's a lot of pour pots, but it saves MUCH time, water, electricity, soap, etc. Ya gotta have the space though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I don't hate any part of making candles. I guess that's why I am in the business. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coconut Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I don't hate any part of making candles. I guess that's why I am in the business. CaroleI have to agree with Carole. The only thing I hate is that I don't have more time yet to make candles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowBoo Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 at first everything is fun and intriguing (no spell check here). But after awhile when you have something down pat, it's not finding the time to do it on a continual basis, that makes everything a grunge. If I could just dedicate more hours in a normal day, I would find the whole process more enjoyable once again. When you don't have the time to really try new things, it becomes more of a project than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monvi33 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I don't mind wicking jars...and I dont Hate anything...but I do think wicking tealights is kinda boring. I'm going to start recruiting my nephews/neices to do the tealights!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CathyinME Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 First I hate to have to pay shipping for everything. Mostly I hate cleaning gel boogers off the jars after pouring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 What I really, really, really, really Did I say really hate is when I pour a pillar & realize I forgot to plug the hole and wax runs out of the mold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandlePrincess Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I hate it when I don't have a lot of scents, a lot of wax and everything to make candles. I like to be well supplied and not out of anything. But lately it seems harder to have it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I'd like see-through molds that hold up like the seamless aluminum molds, that way I could make sure what I'm doing is coming out and not have to wait hours to see if it worked or not.

kanakcandles Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I hate waiting...http://kanakcandles.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I've only been making candles for five months, so up until now I've enjoyed even the most mundane things. But just now I would have to say I hate when you decide to try something new and nothing works out. And finally, test after test, you start to suspect that the new slab of wax you've been using is somehow defective. So I have to agree with kanakcandles the waiting. Waiting till I have time to make another candle, waiting for that candle to cool, waiting for the results of that test candle, but most of all, waiting just to find out you need to do some more tests.

David Fields Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I hate getting in a hurry and messing up. Like putting the wrong FO in a pot of wax; or, while wicking, not sure which wick I,m using; or, not remembering if I put the additives in a pot. Oh, wait. maybe those are signs of getting older? I can't remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coconut Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Ever go to sniff a new sample and get a touch of FO on your nose, then that's all you can smell all day even after you wash it off? Not crazy about that. And once DH got a drop of chocolate chip cookie FO on his shirt. Drove him nuts all day looking for the cookies until he figured it out.
