Getting ready to watch It, here from Fortaleza, Brazil. Thank you so much for all of your great work!

This is a fun idea. I've been wanting to try making candles alongside my lapidary hobby

[angiebee]

Just curious do you recommend having ventilation/exhaust fans in small candle studios. And what other safety tips.

[jadeambler]

VESSELS! when do you stick them ?1 how many do you need to stock ? how do you plan for limited edition vessels. basically just vessel inventory and how you keep ahead and make any changes youd like to ? ps love your videos!

I have another question that seems to float around a lot.
Do you prime or soak wooden wicks in oil or pre-wax them?

[digitalboy]

I recently bought a series of premiere wicks from you & having trouble. What is your recommendation on a 454 coconut soy blend wax with the diameter of the jar being 3.06?

[nancywear]

Another great video! Love it! I would like to order a sample pack of the wicks you sell but it shows sold out?

I’ve made my first two batches of candles, the first time, I thought i measured out the exact amount I needed for 10% fragrance load. I ended up having 8 ounces more wax than I needed. The second time, I had 16 ounces more than I needed. I made calculations for 9 eight ounce candles both times. I have a newish Amazon scale, is it not accurate, or am I reading it wrong? The second batch was for a fragrance load of 9%, which would be 66 ounces of wax and 6 ounces of fragrance oil. I’m not using fluid ounces for weighing, the only one I can use is the lb;oz mode. To me, it came out as 4.125. I’m so confused, whatever insight/answer you could give would be gratefully appreciated. Am I reading the scale wrong?

[arfreeman]

Just judging by the repeat questions in Facebook groups and subreddits, I would just assume nobody uses Google for candlemaking information. Just kinda cracks me up. "Read the sticky"

[brianhiggins]

I have a great question that I can't seem to find an answer for. Do you warm your tins prior pouring wax? I know you do for glass but I can't seem to get a solid answer. If so how? With a heat gun? In the oven on warm setting? Please help!!!!

[LaurenAldousLasVegasRealtor]

Ok question…and since I know that you mentioned “the older the video, the harder it is for me to respond”…I figured this is a close enough topic for me to ask the question. I’m getting ready for a holiday craft faire and I need to know where you purchased your branded table cloth and your signage. I have used Vista Print in the past but is that like for Boomers now? 😂 Who’s the latest vendor to use?
Thank you, good sir!

[t.mccullough]

do oils or waxes expire? Just wondering my special wizard!!!😊

[kevinwarner]

Hi Wade. Can you tell me what makes some paraffin whiter than some? The first wax I bought is a creamy white wax which I like very much. I was told that it is paraffin but I have no way of knowing for sure because it had no label. I then bought paraffin from Direct Candle Supply and it is translucent. I make small birthday candles so I don’t use jars or any containers if that helps.

[CrystalJacobson-kjye]

Hi Wade love your videos! Question I buy my Premier Wicks from you and I always have leftover wick lengths after cutting. What size/kind of those little metal tabs do I get so I can use the leftover wick?

[bluelot]

once again a great video!! I was glad but surprised that type of wax wasnt at near the top of what matters - I ask the most popular gift store in our area and she said 80% ask if it is soy wax - so I am really hoping that is just her store lol~ I still can't see how anyone can get a really strong throw off just soy and boy have I tried

[DebraCigic]

Do you think someone could start off with just wax melts and then build from there? Or would you recommend being able to do both before launch?

[LadyBthediva]

Hi wade thank you so much for your kind advice. I am about to start making candles to sell I thought I know how to make candles but since I started taking it more seriously I found out that’s it not so easy any advice for a new candle maker should I or souldint I thanks wade
