    I had some FO's in the past that would not bind, one was candy corn from Lonestar, I finally gave up and quit making it. But other oils that wouldn't bind, I have used vybar with them and maybe use less oil per LB, also heating up the oil will help, but just warming it a little not actually cooking it. I put the bottle of oil in a warm water bath to heat it up. HTH

    I wouldn't do it because of the heat!! I went to a flea market last weekend (outside) just to shop, and there was a soap and candlemaker there and it was blazing hot. I was walking around looking at stuff and sweat was dripping off my body. It was HOT!! I am sure the candles were melting.

    I dust a little on the top of a few special candles and it does not clog wicks. Edited to add: I use shimmer dust glitter , not the dazzle dust glass, sorry!

    Has anyone tried Candle Science pomegranate cider, it sounds very good to me, something kind of different than regular mulled cider?

    I only use the honey gingerbread right now, I had sampled pumpkin corn bread, backwoods blue, black irish, coconut curry custard, all were great, but I stuck to the honey gingerbread because it smelled like GL honey graham cracker. I did not care for the patchouli or the spiced wassail but that is just my opinion.

    To me Backwoods honey gingerbread smells just like GL honey graham cracker. I use it now, would you like a sample? Karen

    Ditto on vanilla pods from C and sup (carol k) I love that one, and DS vanilla delicious!! I think that MC (extreme vanilla) and CS (very vanilla ) are okay, they just don't have enough vanilla umph for me!!
  21. Karen M
    I have tried MC and Ky both were pretty good! IMO
