  7. Hi Everyone!!! I have been doing pillars now for about a year,,,I just now have been having some problems with the screw and the wick. I put my wick in and leave about 1 inch and I try to put the screw in next to the wick and I do not screw it in to far as usual but now they have been coming out with the wicks almost cut off,,,what am I doing wrong???? I use IGI-4625 and I use peak pre-blend pillar mp145 with a 24 ply flatbraid in 3" diameter pillars,,,,This is what I have used all along and now having these issues with the wick,,,,,HELP!?
  8. May I ask how do you triple scent your wax??? Since 1oz of FO goes into 1 LB of wax??? It says on your website that you triple scent???

  11. I think that is a good statement!!! And you just keep making your candles because you do LOVE THEM,,,I have come to the conclusion that the ones that say we are crazy are usually either Jealous or unhappy and wish they could have a hobby,,,thanks for sharing Bev.
  12. Oh here is one for ya,,,,I ordered a case of wax from WSP and my hubby had ordered some things too,,well I have a big house and I heard my dog barking (Chihuahua) and when I got to the door I seen the ups driver getting some stuff out,,so I was on the porch, And mind you I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia,,,he sets the 62LB box into my arms and WALKS AWAY!!!!!! I asked him Sir,,,Could you please help me get this inside the door,,he looked @ me and said NOPE got more orders to deliver!!! As if taking 20 secs out of his way to help me!!! Then I discover the other half of my order was sitting on my back porch!!!! he never rang the doorbell on either porches!!! I was so mad!! Now today I am hurting and cant pour candles today. UPS is getting on my last nerve!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and it was 5pm when my order came and usually they are here at 1pm like clock work,,,
  13. I love the Mulberry from Peaks,,, Vanilla Passion Rose Bouquet Amish Harvest Spiced Cranberrry Home for the Holidays,,,,,
  14. 2. If you have a brass spigot,yes 1. Dos your spigot clog?NO 2. If so, how often, on average, does it clog?never clogged 3. Have you ever burned your hand while touching the spigot?NOPE 3. What temperatures does your spigot reach?Well if it is attached to the pot I would guess as hot as I get my pot 190F 1. Have you ever burned yourself touching the spigot?Nope 2. If so, what material is it made of? 4. How long does it take from the time you turn off the pot until the spigot cools off? When my pot cools so does the spigot,,I can usually touch the pot after about 5 to 10 minutes 5. Have you had problems with oxidization around your spigot?NOPE 6. If so, what material is it made of?
  15. we had a topic on this before and really I like using either the 24 ply or 30 ply flat braid wicks. I think it is a personal preference to be honest. If you have a great melt pool of about 1/2 and the sides about a 1/4 I would say you have a good wick there but this is just my opinon I am sure others will chime in
  16. Oh Kayrn,,,DO NOT order from there,,It took me 5 months to get my Gusseted Cello bags and I had to threaten to call Paypal and The Better Business Bureau and I got them within a few days after that. They have alot of Issues and they need to stop taking orders they can not fullfill,,,,HTH
  17. I use peak pre-blend pillar MP 145 or IGI-4625 for making my Votives and tarts and I use the 44-24-18 zincs,,,,They burn very well,,,I have started to test the LX but not because of anyone asking if there is lead in the wick but because I have heard good things on the LXs...I have never had a person question me on my wicks HTH:grin2:
  18. I was just going to say that,,,LOL,,,looks like you need to zap it with your heat gun to smooth it out,,,
  19. I bought mine from Wal-mart like Trisha,,its a wagner and works very good,,I love my heat gun...LOL:p
