Candle Kitty Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Okay, several posts coming, I took a bunch of pictures of the candle itself outside and it shows several angles, bear with me, there's like five pictures.This is one of two candles I'm currently working the instructions on, the other is Asian Sandalwood. This one isn't wicked yet, nor is it leveled, I was too excited when I slipped it out of the mold to see what I did. I honestly don't think I'll burn this one, it's going on my breakfast bar along with a 3 x 3 and a 3 x 9 once I get more wax on a mirror. It matches my kitchen and living room BEAUTIFULLY!

Candle Kitty Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 Okay, the candle is NOT that unlevel, the deck post is. Doesn't help I was in a weird position myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyN Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 These are beautiful. I love the color. How did you do this? There are instructions under techniques for marbled, is this how you did it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Absolutely beautiful!! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Kitty Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 Actually, Judy yeah that originally started me on the marbles, but since I use dye chips instead of liquid, I had to revamp the technique and since there are those that use chips as well, I thought I'd throw my technique into the barrel as well.Forgot to add that this candle is pink and burgundy, a dark burgundy at that, there's places on this candle that almost looks black, but I LOVE it!

JudyN Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Oh I only have chips right now. I guess I will wait until I have directions for the chips. I am actually waiting for a shipment of liquid and I just bought some blocks from soneone on here so I will try all the color variables.

Donita Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I must really be a sick person....I actually got an adrenaline rush looking at YOUR candles. I know what it feels like un-molding a candle and it makes you go WOW. I would be excited too. Love that dramatic marble....I have to try those.....Auntie D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the sharpness of your grass photography can't be beat.Thank you, thank you and yeah, my camera STILL SUCKS! I've got to get the frickin' manual and find out why it's focusing on the background and not the subject! Those pics were taken supposedly with the high resolution side of the THING I have...Maybe I should change my name to Marble Kitty....Hmmmm....

topofmurrayhill Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Let me buy a marble from you. I'll photograph and post so people can see it in all its splendour. I hate to deprive your breakfast bar but maybe you can spare this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
