@talitaandrade4307 Год назад

Love your videos, thank you so much! How many days do you wait before sealing the vases ?

@calafiacandleco Год назад

Thank you! Lately I’ve been waiting around 5 days. The concrete needs to completely dry out before you seal it, otherwise moisture can get trapped inside.

@lourdesarriola5813 Год назад

What do you do after desmolding? You wait 3 days until seal them?

@MarshaABranch 5 месяцев назад

Hi there. I don't think you remembered to like the storage containers below. I've been trying to find them on Amazon, but haven't been successful. I looked first on your Amazon storefront and didn't see them there, so then I tried searching Amazon. Would you mind sharing the link? I've been trying for a while to find some like this that are horizontal instead of the really tall vertial cones, but the only ones shaped like these I've ever found are the really big ones for dog food.

@theagreen1035 14 дней назад

Where do you get your molds

@gabriellefranco7149 Год назад

Hi, I follow the channel and I love your videos. I made some vases and I don't have a vibrating machine, just hitting the mold it leaves no bubbles on the surface and inside but there are some at the bottom, so my doubt would be if the vibrating machine can eliminate these bubbles.

@calafiacandleco Год назад

Thanks for watching, Gabrielle! The vibrating machine definitely is not necessary. For me, it just speeds up the amount of time I spend tapping and bouncing. Even when using the vibrating machine, I can still get some bubbles here and there.

@innerhealingwithjaclyn 2 года назад

Love your videos! They're always so helpful! Quick question- is there a way to remove wax that drips on the outside of the cement vessel? I feel like I've ruined so many with little wax stains

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

Thanks so much for watching! If you don't seal the outside like me, then no it will stain. If you do seal the outside, it should be able to wipe off. I pour very carefully and won't move to the next vessel until the last drip has dropped or I wipe off the spout on the pitcher.

@gdartconcrete Год назад

What is the mix of concrete you use ? Or do you use only cement?

@calafiacandleco Год назад

@@gdartconcrete I use cement-all, which is cement + fine graded sand

@BrittenThompson Год назад

very useful video. Thank you. Could you tell me how long you leave your jars before you sell them, and how long before you pour the candles in them?

@calafiacandleco Год назад

Thank you for watching! I typically wait 3-5 days before sealing, and then another 24 hours before pouring wax. You want to make sure the concrete is fully dried out every step of the way

@colleenbuford2964 2 года назад

That is beautiful! Thank you for the video. I love your videos!!! Just subscribed 😃 With that vessel, what size/type wick do you use?

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

Thank you so much! The wick size is definitely going to depend most on what wax you're using. I use coconut wax and find CDN series works best for me. The sizes vary depending on the fragrance oil.

@bartonkova.tereza 2 года назад

It is just so cool. Than you for the video, you do amazing work! May I ask you… You mentioned you wait until the molds are not warm. Are you editing hot destiny water or why they should be warm? Sorry, maybe it is just stupid question but I just didn’t get it. I tried something from cement and I had to wait all day before I could take them out. Am I doing something wrong? 🤔 😁

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

No stupid questions here! The chemical reaction between the concrete and water causes the mixture to get hot. Depending on what concrete you use, the waiting time will differ.

@hannahkaufman2998 2 года назад

Love your videos ! Thank you for posting them. What do you use your titanium oxide for ??

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! It can be used to lighten the color of the vessels. It's an optional addition.

@hannahkaufman2998 2 года назад

Ok, thanks for getting back to me with that. Do you ever put anything in your cement to strengthen the cement. I live in the Canary Islands with limited rapid set cement options. I wish I could get cenent all!! I'm struggling to make my vessels strong before and after wax. Any advice at all?? Thanks again for sharing all these amazing videos!!!!!!!

@krush7356 2 года назад

Hey! I make cement vessels and was wondering what do you do with vessels that you’ve made that will never be used? I have a bunch from when I first was learning how to make cement vessels and I made them into candles now I’ve changed everything from wick, how I color them, and my brand in general.

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

If they’re already made into candles, there’s not too much you can do. You could remove the wax and wick I suppose, but I would probably just use those vessels for testing purposes and not for sale.

@sarahwhitney8256 Год назад

Have you ever tried to add the paint to the side of the molds so you can do more then one at a time and get a swirl ?

@calafiacandleco Год назад

I personally haven't but I have seen other people do it! Seems to work well for them.

@bartonkova.tereza 2 года назад

🤗 One more question. :) Do you clean molds before you fill them again? Or you let there the “dust”? Thank you for your answer 🌼

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

I personally don't clean after each use. The only time I will clean them is if I'm using a really intense pigment that stains the mold.

@thorneeva5321 10 месяцев назад

Is there a specific kind of cement that we have to use or every cément can make it ?

@calafiacandleco 10 месяцев назад

You can’t just use plain cement. You need to add more to the cement to make it work for this. I use cement-all, which is cement premixed with find sand.

@GreenWitch1 Год назад

I just discovered your channel. Very nice jars! I’m just getting started making these & I’ve poured 4 so far. I’m curious why you use distilled water? I just used my tap water. I hate having to go to the store to buy water ☹️ What’s the benefit?

@calafiacandleco Год назад

Hi Michele, I live in CA and we have very hard water here. I just as getting water spots on my jars when using regular tap. That’s why i switched to distilled and I haven’t experienced the spots again.

@GreenWitch1 Год назад

@@calafiacandleco That makes sense. Mine look ok, so I guess I don’t need to do that. Thanks for your reply 😊

I use Earth Safe Finishes to seal. I've heard lots of people experience seepage with Eco Advance. Earth Safe has never failed me.

@a.w.4011 2 года назад

Hello thanks for the great video. I was wondering, I saw another person who soaked their concrete vessels in water for 24 hours after they made them. I was wondering what is the purpose for that & is it absolutely necessary

@calafiacandleco 2 года назад

Hi there! Thanks for watching :). I don’t water bathe, and don’t find it necessary. I know some people do like to do it, so I think it’s just preference. For the product I use (cement-all), it’s not necessary. The only scenario I would consider doing it is to make planter pots. Water bathing will leech out the lime in the concrete, which can affect soil in plants.

I was wondering if you have to sand these containers? They don't look as sharp on the bottom as some I have seen.

@calafiacandleco Год назад

I do just a quick swipe on the bottoms with a sanding block after unmolding. I try to be very carfeful with pouring not to spill over the top. If you overfill, sometimes even after sanding it still leaves some sharp spots.

You can try adding a little water to your paint to thin it out a bit. It will help it not get those pockets.
