contempori Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Hi all,So, I've got my Presto pot, picking up some more stuff soon, and I'm ready to order my first batch of candle making supplies.So far I've been impressed with the supplies (pouring pots, wicks, containers, wax, etc) available at Lonestar Candle Supply, so I think I will order that from there. I'm not so sure about the wax though; I'd like to use a 100% soy wax for container pouring, can somebody suggest a good line?I've went through the FO lists on their site, and on Peak's, and I've come up with a list of the ones I'm most interested in. I'm curious to see what everyone has to say about the oils, and maybe if I should look into some other scents than what I have. Also, several oils are available at both places (marked by an asterisk) : in your opinion, which smells better?Peak SamplesAsian SandalwoodCedarFresh Brewed CoffeeGinger PassionLavenderMacintosh AppleMountain Pine*Orange*Red Currant*Patchouli*Lonestar SamplesChamomileCloveCranberryFirewoodFrankincense & MyrrhFresh Cut GrassFresh Baked BreadGreen TeaLeatherOrange*Patchouli*Pine*Pipe TobaccoRed Currant*ZinfandelI'm sure I'll have more questions over time, but that's it for now. If anyone has any other suggestions or tips pertinent to a very eager beginner, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Welcome! Peak's and Lone Star both carry excellent candle supplies. The FO selections will have to be made by you. Every one has their own preferances. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logcabinmomma Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Lonestar carries (at least they did last I checked) C-3. That's a soy container wax. You could start testing with that one!-Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
