pixisprkl Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 As someone who "buys" candles.... I don't give a rats behind about mushrooms! :laugh2:But heaven help me if I get a candle that doesn't have a hot throw. :smiley2:I had a BEAUTIFUL Circle E candle.... and that thing produced mushrooms unlike anything I had ever seen, but the hot throw more than compensated for it..... it was my motivator to get into this hobby in the first place.Just my Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rae Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I agree with pixisprkl. Someone gave me a Circle E for a house-warming gift. I loved the strong scent, but hated the way it burned. That's when I decided to get back into making candles.Thank you Circle E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pixisprkl Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I compete with Circle E and Tyler candles in the shopping strip where I carry my candles. I've never burned a Circle E. I'll have to try one. The only thing I like about them is their containers....nice solid thick glass and you use the lid as a platform to set the container on.I had birds of paradise... lovely scent. Was double wicked and had HUGE mushrooms... haha. But as it burned down, the wicks looked like they were laying down. I don't think they worry about keeping the wicks straight after pouring.We have Tyler candles here in the same shop as the circle E.... never have tried them though.
