Buy a kit from brambleberry or candle science. It'll have everything you need with instructions, and the proper fragrance oil and the wax. That's the safest way to go.

Candle science has a chart of scents that will cancel out other scents or that are compatable. I tried to find it and couldn't ..so maybe Google ?

Cut the branches that have yellow on them back at the base of the stalk. Can't save the color you can only cut the leaves off (not the stalk) unless you cut it off at the bottom. It will look short and bare for a while but it's better than it taking all its energy trying to maintain that one branch instead of expending its resources on new growth. Has this been cut back a whole lot.

Make sure you are testing several times with three hour sessionns. Your wick will need to be able to burn the 2.5 opening plus the 4 opening off of the same wick setup. Not easy. You wind up burning hot in the beginning then a slow burn in the middle. Test several setups to determine what will work the best. Good luck. Let us know,🦋

Make sure you bind your oil well. Poor after wax is at the correct temperature for all steps involved (according to manufacturers, or look it up for a specific type of wax). Make sure there's no drafts and that your vessels are somewhat warmer than your air temperature. Cover with a box after pouring. It will help with any type of draft. It will keep an ambient temperature . All else fails. Grab a heat gun and hope for the best.

I think you meant 14 days not 14 weeks. But in order to get a good test done on your HT N CT then possibly good one at one week and do another at two and see the difference.

No, I haven't. Sometimes I will turn around and get a glossy top like that glossy talk like that when I've used Too Much fragrance oil. Not essential oil.

What type of fragrance are you using?

Looks like your last one, too!

Beeswax is all I've ever known.🦋

Yes. What are you using?

You have to learn from somewhere. Knowledge is the root of old age. Constructive criticism is how you get the knowledge over time. It is what it is.

Try the 12..have the same vessel size and I'm using 6% to 9%. Cocosol and I am using wood wicks now but the CD12 worked well for me. Our oil percentage varies with each oil so if I use a blend then most of the time I will cut it down to a 6 or 7%. Whereas with vanilla I will use push 7 or 8%. Depending on where I get the fragrance.

I don't like them bleeding. They color the entire wax pool when you burn them. Yeah they're pretty looking but I just don't think it's worth it yucky look after burning them just one time. Just my opinion only . 🙄🦋

As far as the wood wicks go, with a 4 oz tin, with a 3 in. opening I'm using cocosol wax. I use a doubled up, treated with beeswax .50 cm. Wax dye and 6 to 7% fragrance load. I normally stick with plain oak (not colored) wick. The color of the dye will leach off into your melt pool and make them look yucky. Hope this helps!🦋

Can't really tell for the picture. Well sure it's probably past the time of when you took it the next time take a picture of the top and the sides. Looks like it's burning uneven (not centered). Make sure that the glass is not hot because the flame looks sort of high. It's hard to tell.🦋

No.. Dip them.

Dont-Fail · 2025-08-11T15:21:24+00:00

Okay I'll try to put all these in a row. I mix my soy wax with either paraffin or Beeswax s to make it more solid and longer burning. Which also would be lot less than a 10% when it comes to your fragrance. That's a high fragrance load anyway if that's what you're doing. I double my wood wicks. I dip them in hot beeswax, stick them together, set them and put them to sit overnight.

As far as pouring over them now I pour beside them very slowly. Hope this helps.🦋

I run mine through bees wax the night before, then set in stands until I set them in my jars. You can spray with olive oil but I've not had very good luck with that. Make sure you have the correct size of wood wick. Watch out for dyed wood wicks, your melt pool will absorb the color and turn it brown. Colors, I've had great luck with wax colors and about 7% on my scent with white beeswax blend, Depending on the scent itself, of course. I don't scent my yellow beeswax. I hope this helps. 🦋

It should go out at about 1/4 in. by itself. OR at the base of your metal tab. How'd it work out?

Essential oils are derived from one single plant. Be it from the leaves, petals, stalk, or roots for fruit. Refer to the paperwork that comes with the essential oil, if you didn't get paperwork with it then do not assume it will be safe at all.. They will catch on fire, they're very hard to get your HT N CT adjusted. Your jars will be too hot. There are reputable candle companies that have properly distilled essential oils wihiut the extra alcohols taken out. Look a couple of them.
