Hey besties! HAPPY NEW YEAR! I am so ecstatic to see what this year has in store for you and I. I am completely sold out once again + WE made it well past 100 subscribers now, wow. THANK YOU!!
In this video I give you a glimpse of what a production day look likes for me. It's a very repetitive process that I still find so rewarding. Candle making is just so therapeutic for me. Even on the days where I feel overwhelmed I take time to step back to remember why I started this journey.
**Be sure to always check your flashpoints on your FO when adding in fragrance at higher temps**
Later in the week I will be posting how I make my labels, give me other candle ideas you'll like to see in the comment section!

What percentage FO did you use?

@belenramos5072 Год назад

hi there! finally switching over to coconut soy blend wax from 464 bc i could never get a strong throw and always had surface imperfections. Which fragrance company do you recommend for a really strong hot throw?? i’m also interested in using wooden wicks instead of cotton

@viewsofayona Год назад

I use SOOO many different vendors for fragrance oil! Candle Science is a great place to start. They have great concentrated scents. Along with, Nature's Garden, Midwest Fragrance, Lone Star and so many others. You have to start off by getting their tester sizes usually 1 to 2oz to sniff test. This was the only way I determined my FO.

I’ve binge watched your videos. I’m in the testing phase but do you find the wooden spoons holds the prior fragrance? I’m using metal and just wondering. I see my other questions answered in comments 😊

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

I buy multiple wooden spoons to have for each fragrance. But I also wash them after each use, some of the scents linger and some go away after a good soak. I also use metal spoons or whatever is in reach lol.

@adimelife 2 года назад

I am using virgin coco soy -- 9.5 oz vessel --- looking for a wick that burns the edge/ strong heat throw. I have use the Jastore 12.5 oz. Libbey Candle Container & tried the CD/CDN wicks 6,8,10,12 --- Do you have recommendations?

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

There are so many factors that go into play. What FO percentage load are using and what is the exact diameter of your jar? Are you allowing the candle to burn to the edges on the very first burn? Off experience it sounds like you should try double wicking if the jar is more than 3.5 in and if not wick up. I use CDN 12" and 14" for my 10oz jar, depending on the FO. NOTE: If your candle can burn for 4+ hours and fmp remains between 1/4" - 1/2" then you have found your wick.

@MsSherrill08 2 года назад

@jrccandleco7939 2 года назад

Thank you!! & yes 2 cdn 5’s or 2 cdn 4’s, depends on the fragrance.

Hi, I'm from Brazil and here I use a blend of coconut wax, palm wax and rice wax. Do you know if I can get to that same temperature to add the essence? Thank you so much and congratulations for the channel, for being generous in sharing your experience.

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

Hello to you all the way in Brazil, that is so cool. Make sure to pay attention to the flash points for each of your fragrances before pouring at higher temps. I think each scent is unique and you'll only know by testing. I hope this helps :)

@jimmyboney7173 2 года назад

Can you pour your fragrance oil with Coconut Apricot Creme wax at that same temperature as well? Because I'm having problems with my scent throw and its soooo frustrating that I can't get a strong hot throw.

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

What kind of wicks are you using and what is your percentage fragrance load? Although I do not sell that wax I have played around with it and noticed coconut waxes perform better when heated to higher temps - 200 works for me but some say 210-225° is best. Use a presto pot if you can because with a double boiler, you'll never get the wax hot enough. Once you reach your desired temp of 210-225°, add your scent, stir about 1-2 minutes then pour.

@jimmyboney7173 2 года назад

@@viewsofayona I use a 0.2 wooden wick from Wooden Wick Company. And my fragrance load is a 12% fragrance load with a 12 oz vessel. And ok, I will try heating my wax to those temps that you stated and will mix for 1-2 minutes and pour right after. I was thinking maybe I need to lower my fragrance load to about 8? Because even when I did a 10% fragrance load, the hot throw was still weak. Thank you for your help!

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

@@jimmyboney7173 Ok awesome so I assume you are using the 12 oz aura vessels. I would try a 5 day and a 2 week cure with 8 and 9% FO & a .02 crackling booster wick .75 - Remember the longer you cure the better the HT. Less is more with FO + 12% FO could have been an overload and clogging the wick.

@jimmyboney7173 2 года назад

@@viewsofayona Thank you for your response back. And yes I am using a 12 oz aura vessel with a 0.2 crackling booster wick 625. I will try the .75 as you suggested. Will also try the 5 day and 2 week cure along with the 8 and 9% F/O. I did not know less is better. Wow I thought the opposite! I really do appreciate you for all of your help. And I will reach back out to give you an update. Thanks again!!

Beautiful candles and perfect branding! Can you share your wax supplier? I am on the hunt for a new one. The wooden wick co... now known as Makesy have increased their Virgin Coco Soy from $145/44lbs to $205.

@viewsofayona 2 года назад

Thank you so much! I have to shop around these days! I no longer shop with "wooden wick co" for wax, only FO. But right now I use Hive and Honey Candle Co and they are $130.50 + shipping for 47lbs! Not sure what coast you are on but try General Wax and as well.

Was that water in your presto pot before you put in your wax? If so why add water

No, it was not water. It was just a time lapse of the melted wax and me adding in more as it melted.

Do you heat the pitcher before pouring the wax in it

Not always but if it's extremely cold in the room I'm working in, which is rare I will take my heat gun and heat it up a bit before adding in the wax.

Yes it comes in slab form. Recently I found a few companies you can source it from in flakes now though.
