    Types of Wax

    That is a big savings not having to pay for shipping on wax. :) Shipping on containers can be bad enough. Like Hazel suggested, take a wander over to Craftserver. It's a very active board for candles. I've only ever made a few palm pillars so not sure what is the best pillar wax. But, you...

    Types of Wax

    My first question would be what type of candle are you trying to make, pillars/votive, containers, wax melts? You have mentioned waxes that have different purposes. The Ecosoya PB is designed for pillars and votive candles and has a higher melt-point than container wax. I think it is also...

    A good purple?

    Not sure how these pics are going to turn out, but here are some of the purples I've used from The Conservatorie. The small bars were made with 1/8 tsp per 2oz of oil. I don't remember how much I used for the swirl in the BRV bar. The colors in the pic are as follows: Upper Left -...

    Recommendation For New Scale

    I have the KD-8000 and the directions are the same. With the scale off, press and hold both the Power and Hold keys at the same time. The scale will go through it's cycle on routine then finally beep. Release the Power and Hold keys. Press the Mode or Unit button until nb0 displays. nb0 is no...

    Snowdrift Farms is closing

    Oh yeah, I know what you mean. I was definitely annoyed that I was not getting any responses to emails, phone was not answered and no shipping notice or anything. I'm glad that I have learned what is going on and I really do feel badly for him. I just hope he is able to make it right for...

    Snowdrift Farms is closing

    Hi all, first time post on here but I am a member on two other boards. Just wanted to give you some additional info on Snowdrift in case you don't have it. I did get my refund posted back to my CC a couple of days ago so it seems to be happening slowly. On one of the boards there are a...
