geekrunner Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 This is the first time using a 6" x 6.5" three wick mold I got awhile back. I used a piece of cardboard folded into fourths to make a three-sided partition to have three sections for each wick. Alternated with yellow, green, and blue chunks scented Ocean Breeze, and overpoured with clear paraffin with same scent at 5% load. Will try a #2 sq braid to start.

geekrunner Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 This tall chunky I tried to do like a tilted layer. I started out with blue chunks, tilted and arranged with a skewer, added yellow and arranged, then finished with more blue. Still using Ocean Breeze from Candlewic in chunks and overpour. It kinda worked out how I wanted, but needs a little refining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzie Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Impressive! Really like the layered effect. I'm just trying to imagine how long it took you to get enough chunks for both those candles. Getting enough for one little pillar takes it out of me so WOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's read your post again, changing the "blue", to "blew" and see how the general idea is affected. This tall chunky I tried to do like a tilted layer.
