Add some brown to orange, that should make it a 'burnt' orange shade. HTH

Years ago I had a candle in a coconut shell. Let it burn all night, forgot about it, was in the bathroom. Well the smoke alarm went off, smoke was bellowing out into the hall. The shell was on fire and flames were licking my shower curtain. Thank God for smoke alarms or we might have all been gone. Maybe some sand or something to put flame out when it gets to the bottom.

Happy to hear the smoke alarm worked!

As far as sand, that might look nice with the shell.

Gorgeous Michael, just gorgeous!

I bet I know where you got those....lol

Creativegems does a great job! Those turned out nice.

Actually, you got a good picture posted considering it was from a phone!

Very nice! Great job!

If I were using the metal molds that have the seams, how would I remove the seams from the candle after it cures?

You can use a utility knife and gently shave off the seam.

Pantyhose work well to blend the seam.

1st choice - seamless Alum

2nd choice - metal

Don't care for others as they get damaged by scent.

Pillar/votive wax would be good for melts. I'm sorry I can't help on the supplier. Please be sure and share your candles in the gallery!

Read, Test, Read

Take the advise from these seasoned chandlers!

If it was me I would treat it like a t-light and put a t-light wick in it. I don't like for any of my candles to spill out like that. Or maybe even make them with a tea light insert so it last a long time and they could still burn it and just replace the t-lights.

That's a good idea! They will be able to enjoy the candle for a long time!

Alrighty then I know I now need a roadtrip to Trish's house. BTW quit smoking almost a month ago!!! So no smokey for me anymore but margaritas are still all good

:highfive: U GO GIRL!!!

Congratulations on the stop smokin!

Regarding wax....I get mine from Trish! That 'no shipping' is AWESOME! She treats me good!

That looks absolutely deeeeelicious!

I like those jars! nice job!

Looks very professional!
