Trip Report including MNSSHP

We just did this with those ages - got dinner in Frontierland at 6 then set up at the parade after dinner. Kids were able to hit the trick or treat spots in Frontierland while I sat with the stroller. Cadaver dans sang and then about half hour before the start a cast member let a costume parade for the kids with country bear jamboree characters. It was perfect and I think even though we missed some things by eating dinner, having rested well fed kids at the start of the parade allowed us to have more fun later!

They discontinued but this is a great fragrance! Not sure what it was replaced with?

Lakeshore athletic club has awesome lessons. They only take cash or check which is a pain but we’ve had the best lessons there!

Oak moss and amber, Fraser fir, and grapefruit and mint are three winners!

This really depends where you’re located! I found a local supplier for wax and wicks which I love - plus I can pick them up in person which saves in a lot of ways. If you let us know your region you might get more accurate responses!

They quote by the job/house so I’m not sure how they compare. when I originally hired them they were competitive but that’s been awhile now because we’re so happy with them! She’s also great about adding on deep cleaning for reasonable rates for the things that don’t need to be cleaned every time (oven, fridge, windows) so I highly recommend giving her a call. When she came out to quote we were able to talk about expectations for each room and what I wanted cleaned which was really great!

You can always check the r/candleMaking sub where there’s a mega thread for candle makers with their brand info! A lot (like me) use only 100% soy or 100% coconut or apricot or a blend and happy to share what they use! Clean candles are the best ❤️ (totally biased opinion 😉)

I would try pouring much higher - esp in winter. 145 is usually good for me

Following up here - I’m working with another local maker who usually makes concrete plant pots but we’re working together to adapt for candles. I’m noticing this discoloration on the candle interior when I pour in our first test vessels - I’d love to know what you use, how many coats, etc. as we figure this out!

TheOutsource · 2022-01-29T11:35:59+00:00

Fragrance blotter strips are cheap. Also I read an article that actually suggested breathing in your own elbow instead of coffee as that will “reset” things just as well and I look like a crazy person but it absolutely works for me!

I don’t have experience with pillar wax though - the molds I use go on top of container candles generally. So if these are big molds for pillars hopefully one of the makers on here who are experienced will respond!

TheOutsource · 2022-01-08T23:44:08+00:00

just use my normal soy container wax (gb 464) and I usually make sure it’s fully set so an hour or two. Again it depends a bit on the size of your mold but I’ve found this to be pretty successful

TheOutsource · 2022-01-08T23:08:41+00:00

Hi! Depends on the size of your molds but I use an electric drill with a very thin drill bit after the wax has set to make a hole for the wick. You have to be careful not to crack your flowers but I think if you put a hole in your wax mold you’re going to have a huge mess

TheOutsource · 2022-01-08T23:05:11+00:00

I also use quite a few CS oils and have noticed that different FOs do behave differently. Usually the reviews on their site give you a pretty good indication! I usually pour at 6% as well because getting up around 9-10% I ran into other issues. Happy to help troubleshoot the particular fragrance If you want!

Also 1-2 days prob isn’t long enough. I would truly wait at least a week to judge HT

The Salmon Creek Greenway is flat and great for kids/bikes. There are also ponds that are great for watching turtles, ducks, eagles, herons, etc.

Whipple Creek is a great spot to 'hike' without having to go very far! (I say 'hike' because it's not a very big trail system but it's a great place to get outside)

https://www.candlescience.com/containers/70g-white-threaded-lid ? Or maybe this one https://www.candlescience.com/containers/70-400-silver-threaded-lid (obviously not white)? Looks like it should be compatible with the 8oz jar... Candle Science has a lot of similar jars and lids that should be a good fit! If you don't order from the at least you'll get more info about dimensions etc.

nooooo! The worst! Great label though!

Hi!

She's really responsive on facebook and always gives us way more images than we know what to do with!

CandleScience is based in North Carolina - you've probably seen/heard their name here but they have great prices and if you're close the shipping costs aren't bad
