Awe, I just have to add that my friend and I share christian inspiration stories or wisdom and today she shared with me that the lesson of today was slow down. Dont be in such a rush for everything and let things work according to Creators time. It paired perfectly with what you said Ellen ❤🙏

Love your mention of "buying in bulk"! Money saver right there!!! Managed to haggle with a lady on virgin beeswax a couple of years ago...(beeswax cappings, will produce a pure white candle when dipped or poured without bleaching or dying! Worth its own weight in gold! Lucky for me, she didn't know that, balm to my conscience, neither did I, yet.only thing is, being cappings and virgin, first use, no honey scent, well worth that sacrifice for the natural white colour! Just over scent anything else its paired with!

@EllenRuthSoap 2 года назад

I rendered beeswax once, and boy-oh-boy was that a lot of work... But it is gold!

That was a HUGE help, as it works better than any other cleaner I had tried. I love your channel because you share so much of your hard earned experience! Thanks so much!

I so enjoyed watching this video as I do with all your videos. I love the idea of adding more fragrance to the melted wax without saying, as so many do, 1ounce of fragrance per pound of wax. I have changed over to Pillar of Bliss from 464 soy and ProBlend 650 because I think I needed a strong wax to up hold the molds I use and now I can add extra fragrance oil without feeling I'm doing something wrong. Thanks once again.

Ellen!!!! It never dawned on me that I could "break the rules" with wax melts -- GAME-CHANGER! I have been so frustrated lately with disappearing fragrances that I was going to toss 40 pounds of different kinds of waxes. You just saved me money and all the frustration. Thank you!!

You have saved my sanity ! I have wondered if I could use those plastic pouring measure cups because I have a ton from my MP stuff that I no longer use. I too have the hardest time pouring and not making a mess ( didn't used to be this way but now? lol ) Was curious where you are in TN. I lived in Gatlinburg for 10 years and miss living up there horribly ! I use 4794 because of the same reason you use POB, living in South Bama now, the heat omg ! Least with this wax I don't worry about melting from the sun/heat here

@babygirlhehe9748 2 года назад

flashpoints are only for shipping and gel candles. they have nothing to do with when to add it in. it is true though that you don't want to add your FO in when your wax is too hot because it will burn off some of it so it's best to let it cool a little bit and add it right before you pour.

Great video, can just imagine how good that place of yours smelled! Marshmallow fireside is one of my favorites and the longer it burns the stronger it gets! A tip on cleaning molds, use a bottle brush and hot soapy water scrub them good pushing up with your fingers from the bottom of the molds to get the corners good, then throw in dishwasher if silicone not plastic..boom come out perfectly clean!

I use mica in my wax melts and my ladies and gents love the effect I too make my wax melts super strong too and that is why I have such a good following for my wax melts. My fragrance weight to wax weight is about the same as yours so I can imagine how good they smell. Do you package yours singularly or in a mixed bag of for eg Bakery Day, or Farmers Market, Perfumery Day or Day at the Florist type bags ?

Hi 🥰 Do the fragrances with vanillin discolor? If so how do you combat that? I'm thinking of making some vanilla ones for myself but don't want them to be brown 😭

@para-diceranch5648 3 года назад

Hey Cupcake!! Thank you soooo much for doing a wax melt video. I started making them and I too bought the Pillar of Wax along with some foodie fragrances. The fragrances smelled fabulous in the bottle and cold throw. BUT when it came to Hot Throw it was barely noticeable and I even ended up putting 3 oz. of FO in 9 oz. of wax and the Hot Throw only scented a very small area (like a small bathroom size) 😒 These FO were supposedly for wax and candles. Have you noticed if different places have better FO for the wax melts? Even at 3 oz a half pound, these particular FO's aren't half as strong as the cheap ones at Walmart. If so, could you give your recommendations pleeeease. 🙏 I'm about to give up otherwise, because I can't make any profit putting that much FO in the batches. 🤷🏼‍♀️. Have a wonderful week!!!

@EllenRuthSoap 3 года назад

It does get pricey using that much F.O.... I've had a "hit or miss" relationship with some scents, it is frustrating when the cheap store ones are so strong. I've found that some fragrances are just better/stronger than others while melting..

@para-diceranch5648 3 года назад

@Medicgal 2 года назад

Many people do not understand what flash point is. It has nothing to do with the temperature that you add it to your base. Yes some fragrance might be lost if added to a really hot (boiling) base. But the flash point is referring to the point at which the fragrance would be combustible when exposed to a flame. I've watched hundreds of soap and candle tutorials and the same incorrect information is being taught in most of them. Ellen Ruth, I enjoy your videos and your positive attitude, but many people explain flash point incorrectly.

@EllenRuthSoap 2 года назад

That's a good point, and you are correct. Thank you.
