    I am having a real problem with the heart melts, they are kind of mottled with white dots on the top :/ They feel and smell and melt fine but they look a bit messy. The ony advice I can find is to add an additive called stearin, but I do use stearin so I don't know what is going wrong! Maybe its because I'm making them in ice cube trays? But they are silicone like the others I use, so I can't imagine what is wrong gah! Poor fleago, I am still trying I promise!!

    Oh Sarah,

    Don't worry about what they look like; I don't mind spotty and mottley! Honestly, they're only for my own personal use and they're going to get melted, so it really doesn't matter to me if they aren't visually perfect! It's not as if they're tarts or anything that the visual appeal is so important on. As long as the smell's there, I shall be a happy bunny! :)

  • :D so glad you like them hunnies!

    Bekki, your parcel is all packed up and ready to be posted tomorrow, sorry to keep you waiting so long :)

    Have got some ideas about mothers day but don't stress me out yet lol :D

    Thanks Good Fairy! I'm really excited about them so I've been a bit impatient :o sorry!

    Don't worry about Mothers Day yet! There's at least a month to go :rotfl: (sorry, couldn't resist!)

    Anyway, thanks for my order - can't wait to try out my oil burner! :T

    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...

    That's ok, Sarah. :) 'Twas daft having you fretting about it and spending time trying to get them just so when it doesn't matter!

    Mmmmm, sweet pea, gorgeous! :D Just wait until my OH gets a sniff of the aniseed though; he hates aniseed, but I love it! :rotfl: I'll just melt the aniseed when he's at work and deny all knowledge if he mentions the smell when he comes home! ;):D
  • i am in love.... with your candles gf :rotfl: finally i was able to give mum her candles ~ she loves them btw so i could light mine. Well i have lighted the gingerbread melt, but i had to cut of his leg and just use his leg because my burner is tiny. Anyways the house smells lush. The smell is so nice yet not too over powering. I think i will need to buy a bigger burner though because i am soooo buying more :rotfl:

    yep i had to my burners very very small. Anyways the same leg is still burning and you can still smell the fragrance ~ 3 hours later :j It does really small like gingerbread ~ its amaxing. I must add though if you shake the burner (carfully dont want burnt fingers) you can get get a big waft of fragrance :rotfl:
