Hi. I love your page so much! I was wondering, are your decorative candles scented? If not, is it possible to make scented decorative candles? Thanks!🥰

[@yanyaninjapan]

Hello I’m a new subscriber and just planning to start my candle business here in Japan☺️ I love all your videos thank you for all the ideas.
Can I ask what size is the box you’re using in this video . Thank you

[@luxurypromisecandle]

What kind of wick do you use?

[@arts4uco]

Your candles are so pretty! I just have some questions. I used to sell scented candles on jars but I am now planning to switch to molded candles to lower the cost. If you could answer my questions, I would sincerely appreciate it.
Did you add scents to your molded candles?
And what wax did you use? I am planning to use beeswax blended with soy but it might cost me more.
As for the white wrapper you used, is that an onion paper?

[@GlowedCandles]

My decorative candles are never scented because:
- FO contaminate the moulds and can transfer with each use.
- decorative candles are not creating enough of a melt pool to properly throw scent. So in my opinion adding FO to moulded candles is a waste of money.

@@GlowedCandles Thank you so much for answering my questions. I really appreciate you for sharing this information and for your time as well. I am new to candle business and just started doing decorative candles, so this will really help me a lot 🙂

[@baliarsingh1]

Can you please let me know which wrapping paper you are using?

[@GlowedCandles]

I use chemical free white tissue paper. I had some made from NoIssue in the past with my branding on but I could not justify the cost moving forward.

[@arts4uco]

May I know what type of paper you used to pack your candles? Was it an onion paper?

[@GlowedCandles]

I use tissue paper

Hello. Thank you so much for your videos 🤗❤ i just bought a presto pot for wax. It takes long time to scoop wax out i think 😃
On beginning i put my temp at 8. Didn't make big difference for a while. So i put on 12. I saw its really melting,but temp was 94. I was ooohhhh noooo😅 i turned down to 7. After temp gets like 80. So i had to heat up a bit again. Its playing a lot. I never know what temp is and have to keep checking. Is it how it works?
. So i pour 6 bubble candles and they were disaster🤯 had horrible frosting looks even damaged. Not sure why? Can be because of temp? Was 94 so its a lot for soy wax. How do you operate this soup pot? And what do you think can cause big frosting which looks white and even almost flaking. Dont know how to explain 😒 i have tried to remelt them so i got 1 ok. Others more or less not. Im really so tired to try. When im demolding i cry half of the days. Have no idea what im doing wrong. Wish to have a mentor. Maybe you want to be one?😁

[@GlowedCandles]

94 is waaay too hot and it can absolutely damage the quality of the wax.
With the soup kettle you need to keep checking the temperature to make sure it doesn’t go over. For Kerasoy I would say 80 MAXIMUM.

[@neridamartinaitiene814]

​@@GlowedCandlesi think on the suppliers wax description says that i can heat it up to 85. And no more then 90 or at least not for long time. And i heated to 94 just for short time. Of course maybe thats was enough. Should i throw this wax then? I made more candles today from same wax and 1 is ok another one is with frosting. But they not damaged like ones before. Its so strange, im bit scare to make them now.
And i never have fully melted wax at 80. Im always above.
Now look like ,with this pot, i need 3 hours to wait on low temp till it fully melts. Everyone looks happy using them,im not yet😅 i hope so i will get use to it.

[@neridamartinaitiene814]

​@@GlowedCandlescan you tell me how do you operate soup kettle please? Like i turn on 12 after i see a half is melted i turn on 8. And at the end i keep checking temp. Usually its 85 at that time. But i still have wax left. So i need more time. Do you turn on for lower number qnd longer time? Or faster on beginning? I hope i make sense 🙏 😌

[@GlowedCandles]

My soup kettle only goes up to 10. I never put it on 10. 8 max if it is full and then I reduce it to 5/6 to maintain at temperature.
Make sure to check you water level regularly as well.

Isn't it broken easily?? Didn't you get the bad comments from the consumers about packaging?
