JanetsCandles Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Oh I love the Douglas Fir and the top one! Are you doing it with extra chunks of color to make the swirl? Or is it dropped in while you pour? I've never gotten a pattern like that. It's gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the chunks the dye drops to fast and straight down. I found using drops while you pour just does not give it the look I am going for and more often than not, give a pillar that is more solid color than I would like.

Scented Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 So you're loading the mold with chunks, pouring in hot wax and then dropping the color right? I found the hotter the wax the easier the color travels. I also found another way to cheat at this lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What other way have you found to cheat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
