I just wanted to take a minute to thank two women who had recently bartered with me.
Kay from The Rustic Cottage- I received your soap and room spray. What an absolute delight! I was especially pleased with the rose scent as I normally don't buy that, yours is light and delicate and just wonderful to smell. TY! http://therusticcottage.etsy.com
Suzanne from Good Natured Earthling- Just wonderful soaps, I love the scents, the organic look and just can't wait to share with
everyone! The Kosher Salt Spa Bar is a must! ( www.goodnaturedearthling.com
Treat yourselves everyone and check out their websites! Happy Holidays everyone!

Hummm, I know that for the size jars I wanted to use I have to use a votive size wick. I am using an all cotton as well. The ones I just did I ended up using a wick for 2-2 1/2" opening and will be test burning one tonight, wish me luck! It is a process and I love the creativity that can go along with it. Tarts are another fun project you could use the wax for and decorate up like little cinnamon buns and all kinds of stuff.

I have some different wicks to try and will do that in the next couple of weeks. The plan was to have them for my Christmas fairs, but I never got the time to do it.
Roses are red, Violets are blue; But they don't get around Like the dandelions do.

Awesome! Thanks! I am making soy candles and will be testing but as soon as I get one made will send you if you like. I think the line is going to be called "Wee Wicks" I am focusing on smaller trial size candles and will decorate the jars. It's fun to try a scent before investing in a larger candle and makes perfect for travel. Will send you a pic when I get the process down! LOL
