tucker Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Sure do like the collection of browns you display. Great work on all of them but I sure do like the brown ones best. I guess that's a mans point of view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kate Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Not just man's point of view Tucker .... I like 'em the best too.Me too, hence the whole group of them - they are scented pumpkin pie.The others ones are Strawberries and Cream, Grandma's Swingin' Eggnog and Blackberry Sage. The photo doesn't do the blackberry sage justice, it's much more stunning in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kate Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 I love your rustics! Mine never turn out that well. What is your secret?Thank you!I don't know if I have a secret, but here's a few things I try to do ...I pour around 145-149. I chill my molds before the first pour, but I just discovered that I don't need to ice them or cool them down after each layer, they actually turn out better when I don't do that. And the most important thing is patience when unmolding ... I always want to rush it so I can see how it looks, but that will destroy the frosted look if the candle isn't completely cool.

Rins Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Your candles have gotten me confused because I cant decide what I like best. Guess I must say that I really am so inlove with all of them! I like the black one the most but the others are closely following suite. Rins:grin2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanaE Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I LOVE the Brown and Orange ones, and the blue/green combination. They are just gorgeous . I love shades of blue and green, but don't often go that dark; next time I'm going to add more color and see what they look like!DanaE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcroome2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Thanks for sharing your way of doing this. I want to try this so bad. You girls have given me sooo many great ideas to try :-) I don't know what I would do without you :-) But just to clarify- this has to be done with molted wax right? And thanks for reminding us to be patient.. That is one thing I am not. LOL I soooo want to unmold everything that I try that is new to see the results. grrrrr .. I need a rubberband on my wrist so I can smack myself when I want to do that LOLChristina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
