jeniryan Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Made a couple dozen votives yesterday. Put them in the freezer MEANING to do so for only 10 mins or so. Got distracted, forgot, went to the grocery store. An hour later.... I had several dozen frozen, cracked votives, which obviously can be repoured, I just happened to need them THAT evening. Oh well.... trials and tribulations of candle making! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Aren't you glad you can always remelt! I hate it when I get distracted. I start out setting up my jars to wick and need more wicks, then I see I needed to pull out a couple more FOs I wanted to use so I get those, then remember I need my FO pouring formula so stop to go get that, then remember I need a pen to write down my the pour formula I'm gonna use for my new testers so I stop to do that... then remember I was setting up my jars for wicking and forgot to turn on the hot glue gun to warm up... and on and on... Its a wonder I can get anything done!:rolleyes2:laugh2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella1952 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I can't be trusted to quick-chill ANYTHING in the freezer (there's a beer in there from 3 weeks ago). I put stuff in the fridge so at least when I forget it, it won't be frozen solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) I've so done that with meaning to take it out of the freezer in 5-10 minutes - & a few hrs later - oh crap :-) I seldom do it anymore - I don't trust myself - it just happens.
