LOLMichi..I am sooo proud of these....it was quite the expierment..with wax splooshing in my bangs....think of the movie what about Mary and that was me....so hillarious....don't push the flowers done until the wax is completely cooledI poured at 165 ish..let set for a few hours..I added the flower then did a second pour at a higher temp me thinks around 175 ish ...I had one candle seperate..the wax must have cooled ...I did use wick pins...and I used the wick pins to poke a hole in my flower embeds....I did do a lot of reading before hand and I had a good coach earlier on in the day....I just made another batch of LUV Spell....they are cooling as we speak.....See I told you all I am addicted...after my first votives....waaaaaaahhhhh HELP ME....Joking of course.... ;) Tanks everyone your comments have helped me to make more....I can now tell my Hubby you have all helped with my addicton....I'm ducking and hiding now:D ....Hugs Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaybee23 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Those are beautiful. Just make sure you put them in a deep enough votive cup so the extra wax doesn't run over the side. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraInNY Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Those are adorable votives! You certainly didn't start out with something easy did you? I love the flower embed for the top, it's really pretty. Stuff like that you hate to burn em to test em (I know...we get over it and then light those puppies up.) Very well done, and yes, they will only get better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violetmoondrops Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Those have to be the coolest Votives I've EVER seen! You go girl! For a first timer - I think you got yourself a hit!Now ... please please please tell me you need a tester? (Pick me, Pick me!!). Can't wait to see further votives from you ... Amazing work! - Meg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bev Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I really, really like the flower embeds on the tops of those votives. Hmmm ... I'm gonna have to find some silicone molds. I am loving those!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scentcerely Yours Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I love them. Very unique. Mind if I ask about the little flower mold you added? I was just wondering if you place on top after your repour and if so do you wick them after they cool? I absolutely love them!!!
