Any one in to Candle Making?

[Tennile]

I Just started candle making..and was wondering if anyone else did??
I would really appreciate any tips!!!

I found so many sites that say do this..then another that says don't do that...

But if any one does..please let me know! I am working on a new site just for selling them...but need to figure out how to make them..heehhe

Plus i would love to know if anyone has any secrets on the Smelly bears...hehhe..for those that don't know what they are they are wax dipped bears..but there is no burning envoled and they last for years with great smells.

Thanks,
and looking forward to learning my way about!

I have always wanted to make my own candles. The ones I buy at the store never seem to smell very long. I bought some triple scented candles and really loved the way they smell. I have looked at lonestarcandles.com and they seem to have some good prices and ideas.

I make soy candles - you can see them at my web site (http://www.candelasoy.com). I don't think that there is any one "right" way to make the soy candles - it took me about a year of experimenting before I was happy with the burn time, scent throw, etc. I think that you just have to give it a try and see what works for you.

You may do a search for "candle making kits" online. I don't offer them, but I know some companies that do.

Tennile...I make soy candles and get all of my supplies from Bitter Creek South and North. If you would like there web addresses just private message me or email me and I would be happy to help you find them. They also have a wonderful candle forum and all the people there are wonderful and very very helpful in the candle making process. It is the best company I have found by far, there fragrances are SOOOOOO wonderful and VERY, VERY fragrant, more than anyother I have ever tried, and trust me, I think I've tried them all! Hope to hear from you soon!
