This oversized puppy responds to affectionate touches, voice commands, and motion with playful barks and realistic movements.

Get ready to start interpreting three different barks and a whole range of movements that are playful and affectionate. With a real collar, a bone-shaped treat to share, and a brush for smoothing out his silky fur, Biscuit is ready to settle into your house. He'll quickly start wagging his tail and making happy puppy noises. An adoption certificate is included to make kids feel like real pet owners.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Before Biscuit is ready for a fun day with your child, an adult will need to use a Philips head screwdriver to install six "D" cell batteries (not included). The battery compartment is neatly hidden behind a Velcro closure on the pup's stomach. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Getting to Know Your Puppy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nine sensors allow Biscuit to respond when you pet him or issue a voice command. Kids will enjoy the contented sounds he makes when they pet his back and the discovery that if they hold a hand on his back he will lay down, if he is sitting, or sit up, if he is already laying down. Sensors in his nose and mouth prompt him to sniff when his nose is petted or chomp on his treat. Touch his left paw, and he will raise it to shake. A unique photo sensor in Biscuit's forehead prompts him to flinch, blink, or sneeze when you wave something in front of him. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Take a peek at the back of the bone-shaped tag on his collar to see all the commands he knows. You can ask him to "sit," "lie down," or "speak." He even knows how to shake and will nod or move his paws in excitement when you ask, "Do you want a treat?" Like any voice recognition technology, Biscuit can be tricked by background noise or speech that is unclear. You may want to help younger children practice speaking the commands loudly, clearly, and distinctly, so they are not disappointed by his confusion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/11/us-top-christmas-toys-and-gift-ideas.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Christmas Toys and Gift Ideas 2008&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-5042692440846740959?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/5042692440846740959'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/5042692440846740959'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/11/fur-real-friends-biscuit-my-lovin-pup.html' title='Fur Real Friends Biscuit My Lovin Pup'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSkO501rcxI/AAAAAAAAAUE/IDkdjGIj3TA/s72-c/Fur+Real+Friends+Biscuit+My+Lovin+Pup.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-6384911698893928117</id><published>2008-11-20T20:44:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-20T20:47:53.413-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='US-Top 10 Christmas Toys'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fisher-Price Elmo Live'/><title type='text'>Fisher-Price Elmo Live</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/top.christmas.toys.2008-20/detail/B0015KOFZK"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 183px; height: 210px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSY86ii6iII/AAAAAAAAASk/ZM8RcvIxG3Q/s320/Fisher-Price+Elmo+Live.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270967390287071362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/top.christmas.toys.2008-20/detail/B0015KOFZK"&gt;Fisher-Price Elmo Live&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" class="by"&gt;From Fisher Price&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;#1 : Fisher-Price Elmo Live is a sure fire winner for your list of Top Christmas Toys 2008. &lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;He's Cute, Funny, and Animated!&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/RDTHY14RSOMYW"&gt;Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RDTHY14RSOMYW&lt;/a&gt; Elmo Live will capture your child's imagination with his trademark infectious happiness. He waves his arms, dances, sits on his stool, tells jokes and stories, shows your child how much he loves him/her, laughs, sneezes -- everything you would expect an animated Elmo to do. Other than some mechanical grinding as he moves, Elmo is all cute. This little guy is a blast! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Elmo Live Doll&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I received this very quickly and as described...brand new.

Live&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elmo makes lots of fun movements and gestures -- the only slight drawback is that his movements generate a somewhat loud, mechanical sound that sometimes interferes with being able to understand what Elmo is saying. He also has to be on a hard, flat surface -- otherwise he has a tendency to fall over. This in itself has a fun effect, however. When he falls over, Elmo asks you to help him back up again, and when he's put back upright, he'll say "thank you." Also, since his nose has to be squeezed with a bit of force to activate him, our two-year-old tester sometimes needed assistance with it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  Elmo Live! comes with 6 AA batteries.

Some people would consider pillars to be one of the easiest types of candles to make, but those of us with some experience know that these can be very challenging to get perfect. If you are new to making candles, you might want to consider starting with Introduction to Candle Making DVD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The video covers several different types of waxes and specialty candles; including "chunk" and the very neat "splash" candle (they come out different every time).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must say that I really do love making candles and have learned a lot from watching the videos produced by Gatehouse Candles. If you have read any of my other reviews, you know that I think Marie Kauffman is a fantastic teacher (with over 40 years in the business she should be!).&lt;br /&gt;This yet another great candle making instructional video!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Join Marie Kauffman as she walks you through a fun and fact filled video lesson on making fantastic pillar candles. Includes topics on paraffin, blended and natural waxes, wicks, dyes, scents and a variety of molds. There are also bonus instructions for chunk and splash pillar candles. Approx. run time is 85 minutes Marie Kauffman has been active in the candle industry for over 40 years. A full-time candle maker and professional teacher, Marie teaches candle making to hundreds of students every year.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-4736396503761979071?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/4736396503761979071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/4736396503761979071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/11/making-pillar-candles-instructional-dvd.html' title='Making Pillar Candles Instructional DVD'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSTdntz3nbI/AAAAAAAAARE/ymGs_NqVRq4/s72-c/Making+Pillar+Candles+Instructional+DVD.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-292610750247000019</id><published>2008-11-18T20:57:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-18T20:59:56.410-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making DVD'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Making Layered Candles'/><title type='text'>Making Layered Candles Instructional DVD</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B001DY1ZGU"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 210px; height: 142px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSOczuLX1SI/AAAAAAAAAQU/3Lx6yAsr0NQ/s320/Making+Layered+Candles+Instructional+DVD.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270228401336603938" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B001DY1ZGU"&gt;Making Layered Candles Instructional DVD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="by"&gt;From Gatehouse Candles/Marie Kauffman&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;I Love Layered Candles!

You can tell that Marie Kauffman loves working with Gel candles. This is the 5th video from Gatehouse Candles that I have seen, and while they have all been very good, this one is just outstanding. The video takes you from the most basic type of Gel candle through fairly involved candles that use other type of waxes as well. One lesson builds on the next, giving the needed experience to tackle the more complicated candles. The advice on working with embeds and how to use "scrap" wax was worth the cost alone. I just love the Maple Pecan Sundae and Ice Tea Set Projects, but I think the Strawberry Pie and Fruit Preserve candles will sell better for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pros: &lt;br /&gt;Very detailed instructions &lt;br /&gt;Overhead shots during the detailed parts help a lot &lt;br /&gt;Great Tips and Tricks &lt;br /&gt;Great safety advice &lt;br /&gt;Every major type of Gel candle included &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cons: &lt;br /&gt;None! This is the best candlemaking video I have ever seen (and I have a lot of them) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are interested in Gel candles, or candle making in general, this video is for you! Highly recommended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Join Marie Kauffman as she walks you through a fun and fact filled video lesson on making nine different beautiful and popular gel wax candles. Includes instructions on basic container gel candles, a compote with embeds, fruit preserves, gel shooters, beer glasses, root beer floats, maple pecan sundaes, strawberry pies and ice tea sets. Gel safety instructions, tips for working with embeds and techniques to get great looking realistic effects are also included! Marie Kauffman has been active in the candle industry for over 40 years. All full time candle maker and professional teacher, Marie teaches candle making to hundreds of students every year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-9036815280040800823?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/9036815280040800823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/9036815280040800823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/11/making-gel-candles-instructional-dvd.html' title='Making Gel Candles Instructional DVD'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSOath85kAI/AAAAAAAAAQM/6PyZ5oa9FGI/s72-c/Making+Gel+Candles+Instructional+DVD.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-7951144921474747202</id><published>2008-11-18T20:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-18T20:45:14.599-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Food Candles'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='k'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making DVD'/><title type='text'>Bakery &amp; Fun Food Candles Instructional DVD</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B001DY60LU"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 210px; height: 142px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SSOY2vABY6I/AAAAAAAAAQE/J9TUrNgYZO8/s320/Bakery+%26+Fun+Food+Candles+Instructional+DVD.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270224055050527650" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B001DY60LU"&gt;Bakery &amp;amp; Fun Food Candles Instructional DVD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span class="by"&gt;From Gatehouse Candles/Marie Kauffman&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;A VERY FUN Video!

These candles are always my best sellers at shows and people love to get them as gifts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I should say that I have met one of the people in this video (Noreen Hill)! Noreen and Marie Kauffman work together on this video to teach a lot of different bakery style candles, including muffins, preserves, sundaes, pies, etc. It is fun to hear them chat and joke with each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you might also be interested in two other videos in this series (there are quite a few and they are all good), Introduction to Candle Making DVD and the excellent Making Gel Candles Instructional DVD&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Marie Kauffman and Noreen Hill show you how fun, easy and profitable making bakery style candles can be for you.

I am compelled to respond to the negative review written October 27.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course the reviewer has a right to her opinion, however it is incorrect that I recommend people "set an untabbed wick in gel". In my introduction, on page 4, I state "The wick must be self-tabbed with a metal holder". In my general discussion of materials required, on page 21, I state "the wick must have a metal T-Tab at its base which is at least 7/16" high". Finally, in my detailed discussion of wicks on page 22, I explain at great length why a tabbed wick is so essential (it would be a fire hazard to not use one).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I do not believe that the reviewer has read my book very carefully because her statement about wicks, as well as her other statements, do not reflect the content of the book.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks for taking the time to read this statement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sincerely,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kaila Westerman&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Candle gel is the hottest new product in candle crafting. This new product (95% mineral oil, 5% resin) is transparent, is extremely easy to clean up, and has a significantly longer burning time than traditional waxes. Author Kaila Westerman gives the basics of gel candle crafting in ten easy steps, then explores the endless possibilities for creating special effects with layers of color, swirls, bubbles, specialty molds, and embedments such as glass, botanicals, shells, stones, and pieces of solid paraffin candle wax. Readers can create candles that look like rainbows, aquariums, seascapes, playful sodas and other drinks, and more. Since gel candles cannot stand alone, each design is enhanced by wonderful whimsical, vintage, or even sophisticated containers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Product Details&lt;/h2&gt;    &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Amazon Sales Rank: #316648 in Books &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Published on: 2001-09-01&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Original language:       English&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Number of items: 1&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Binding: Paperback&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;144 pages&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-8556676217670478134?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/8556676217670478134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/8556676217670478134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/10/gel-candles-40-creative-projects.html' title='Gel Candles: 40 Creative Projects'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SQPZQlu7WjI/AAAAAAAAALE/MPrmV97n56E/s72-c/Gel+Candles.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-8360377195650613346</id><published>2008-10-25T19:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-25T19:41:55.543-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making Book'/><title type='text'>Candle Making Step-by-Step Crafts Review</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/1589230213"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 159px; height: 210px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SQPYfkbeZZI/AAAAAAAAAK8/HGla_fVSK34/s320/Candle+Making+Step+by+Step.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261286826565330322" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/1589230213"&gt;Candle Making (Step-by-Step Crafts)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" class="by"&gt;By Cheryl Owen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;I can't believe that no one has written a review for this!!&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This book starts out with defining different materials,waxes, molds,coloring/scenting,and wicks. It tells you how to prepare the wick;how to level the bottom of the candle;and how to use containers found in all homes. It has sections on beeswax candles,making tapers at home,making your own molds,painting and applique candles, layering candles, making floating flowers by hand, imbedding, gel candles(small section),making stacked candles,hurricane(shell)candles,stencilling, wrapped candle ideas,stick candles for the yard,marbling candles,and frosted candles. This book includes templates, variations and tips in the sections and all pages are either full colored pictures or have multiple pictures. Many of the crafts are even explained with pictures to show the novice how to make candles. I have bought around 30 books on candles and I still like this very much. It shows you how to make candles from nothing but the wax and your hands.

After looking over "Making Candles &amp;amp; Soaps for Dummies" for perhaps the 3rd time, I can honestly say that there are many better books covering both subjects. This book covers only the very basic information and will leave you with more questions than answers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the candle side, I highly recommend Beginner's Guide to Candlemaking or the instructional video Introduction To Candle Making&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the soap side, try Smart Soapmaking: The Simple Guide to Making Traditional Handmade Soap Quickl Safely, and Reliably, or How to Make Luxurious Handcrafted Soaps for Family, Friends, and Yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are both great hobbies that can become good sideline business and there are good resources available on the subject... this book is not one of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Not as helpful as others in the "Dummies" series&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star20_tpng.png" alt="2" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I usually love the "Dummies" books and was hoping this one could teach me about soapmaking. It really didn't have much in the way of helpful information and I ended it returning it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Great for melt and pour soap creations&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star40_tpng.png" alt="4" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did not read the sections on candle making, so this review is strictly based on the soap sections. I found this book to be one of the most helpful ones I've read (I checked out a lot from the library). True, it does not cover the cold process, but as the more simple, melt and pour method is all that I'm interested in, this book is right on target for my needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition to the color and fragrance info, it discusses stenciled soap, soap on a rope, variegated soap, embedded soap, three-dimensional soap, imprinted soap, soap balls, customized shampoo, massage oil, bath salts liquid soap and more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also enjoyed Chapter 19 which is devoted entirely to aromatherapy. It lets you know what a particular scent is noted for (i.e. boosting memory, fighting infections, relieving congestion, calming effect, etc.), as well as whether it is photosensitizing (increases your chance for a sunburn), a possible irritant to sensitive skin, possesses antibacterial qualities, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Editorial Reviews&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;From the Back Cover&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make floating candles, herbal soaps, and even a home spa      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Discover the secrets of color, shape, and scent the fun and easy way®      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whether you're a beginner or seasoned craftperson, this fun book offers everything you need to make beautiful, professional-looking candles and soaps at home. You get practical tips on dyeing and scenting wax, using unusual molds, adding embellishments to candles, working with soap ingredients, and even turning your hobby into a business! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Discover How To:      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Stock a safe &amp;amp; efficient work area&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work with all types of wax&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Add color and scent to your projects&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Make melt-and-pour soaps&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Turn a hobby into a business&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-1033592046676551170?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/1033592046676551170'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/1033592046676551170'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/10/making-candles-soaps-for-dummies-book.html' title='Making Candles &amp; Soaps For Dummies Book Review'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SQPXYnSM1JI/AAAAAAAAAK0/Q_tQuJSC4vo/s72-c/Making+Candles+Soaps+For+Dummies.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-6511673039090004387</id><published>2008-10-21T01:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-21T02:01:27.708-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making Book'/><title type='text'>Basic Candle Making: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/081172476X"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SP2Z85j06KI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/9snCWzC0s6E/s320/Basic+Candle+Making.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259529211360897186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/081172476X"&gt;Basic Candle Making: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started (Basic Books Series)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span class="by"&gt;By Eric Ebeling&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Not a good choice....even for beginners&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star10_tpng.png" alt="1" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bought the book with just a little knowledge of the candle making industry. The problem with the book is its not updated for the new technology and materials that are used in candle making today. Yes it does a good job of breaking down the VERY BASICS but thats it. You need to know more about the industry than this book covers. I got more information from watching videos on youtube and the different candle supply companies websites than the couple of books I recently purchased. Watch videos and get up to date information on new waxes and materials. Save yourself the $15 or whatever you may spend and research the internet and the big candle supply companies out there. They know whats new and what works&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;When they say basic, they mean basic.&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star30_tpng.png" alt="3" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a great book if you've never read anything about candlemaking previously. I didn't realize it was going to be so 'simple'. It's extremely basic and I found it almost childlike. It's very easy to understand, has good pictures, and would be great if you are a real beginner. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Excellent for true beginners&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I started candle making several months ago. I wish I had had this book on Day 1. I pretty much figured out the basics on my own, but would have saved a lot of time (and mistakes) if I had had this book to start with. It's Candle Making 101: basic, simple, step by step, and lots of photos. A great book if you are just starting out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Step-by-step color photographs and descriptive detail make this book indispensable for beginners looking to create beautiful and functional scented candles on their very first try, and for experienced crafters who want to sharpen their skills. Precise instructions eliminate the guesswork that too often creeps into how-to books.

In fact candle making can be a great activity to do with your kids, or it can be a great way to make homemade gifts for your friends and family members. To start making candles at home you will need the right candle making supplies. These supplies should include: candle wax, candle molds, wicks, and fragrance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are interested in making homemade candles then the first thing that you will need to find are candle molds. Candle molds are generally sold in craft stores near the candle making wax and supplies. Candle molds can take on a variety of shapes and sizes. You should select a mold that reflects a design style that you enjoy, or that someone you know will enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After you have selected your candle mold the next candle making supplies that you will need to buy are your candle wax, wicks, and fragrance. Candle wax comes in a variety of types and colors. If you want to make beeswax candles then you will need to buy beeswax. Most craft stores should carry this in their candle making section. If you want to make a single color or multicolor candle you will need to buy colored wax. Wax will come in pellets or cubes that will be melted and poured into molds.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you don’t know exactly what candle making supplies that you will need to make a homemade candle you have the option of buying a do-it-yourself candle making kit. This kit will include everything that you need to make the candle on the front of the box including candle making wax, wicks, fragrance, color, and the candle mold.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div id="sig" class="sig"&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more information on &lt;b&gt;how to make homemade soap&lt;/b&gt; as well as &lt;b&gt;soap making recipes&lt;/b&gt; visit the PureandNaturalSoaps.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the &lt;b&gt;soap making forum&lt;/b&gt; to discuss techniques, share ideas and post your favorite soap and candle making recipes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Sarah_Freeland&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/"&gt;Candle Making Supplies&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/soap.making.supplies-20/"&gt;Soap Making Supplies&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-7971880739764413158?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7971880739764413158'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7971880739764413158'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/10/candle-making-supplies-articles.html' title='Candle Making Supplies Articles'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-5910173441562648018</id><published>2008-10-05T21:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-05T21:43:26.321-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making Wax'/><title type='text'>Soy Wax From Candlewic</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B0012XYX9I"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SOmW9bVtG0I/AAAAAAAAAEw/1v_8cxCeTa8/s320/Soy+Wax.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253896422359374658" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B0012XYX9I"&gt;Soy Wax&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" class="by"&gt;From Candlewic&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Soy wax by Candlewic is 100% Natural and is all soy.

This DVD has great instructions and ideas that will get you not just making gel candles but feeling you can experiment and create on your own. Even my kids and husband enjoyed making gel candles after seeing Marie Kauffman's demonstrations.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;"From Novice To Expert", Seriously&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"From Novice To Expert", Seriously&lt;br /&gt;I really loved this video! You can tell that Marie Kauffman loves working with Gel candles. This is the 5th video from Gatehouse Candles that I have seen (although not all of them are for sale here at Amazon), and while they have all been very good, this one is just outstanding. The video takes you from the most basic type of Gel candle through fairly involved candles that use other type of waxes as well. One lesson builds on the next, giving the needed experience to tackle the more complicated candles. The advice on working with embeds and how to use "scrap" wax was worth the cost alone. I just love the Maple Pecan Sundae and Ice Tea Set Projects, but I think the Strawberry Pie and Fruit Preserve candles will sell better for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pros:&lt;br /&gt;Very detailed instructions&lt;br /&gt;Overhead shots during the detailed parts help a lot&lt;br /&gt;Great Tips and Tricks&lt;br /&gt;Great safety advice&lt;br /&gt;Every major type of Gel candle included&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cons:&lt;br /&gt;None! This is the best candlemaking video I have ever seen (and I have a lot of them)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are interested in Gel candles, or candle making in general, this video is for you! Highly recommended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Product Details&lt;/h2&gt;    &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Amazon Sales Rank: #120369 in DVD &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Released on: 2007-12-13&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Format: NTSC&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Number of discs: 1&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Running time: 60 minutes&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;More &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/"&gt;Candle Making Ideas&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-7517692416151956630?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7517692416151956630'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7517692416151956630'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/10/making-gel-candles-dvd.html' title='Making Gel Candles DVD'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SOb53k8GXKI/AAAAAAAAAEI/ulusTKNiwCc/s72-c/Making+Gel+Candles+Video.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-7955304496763514987</id><published>2008-09-26T19:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-05T21:43:58.632-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making DVD'/><title type='text'>Introduction To Candle Making DVD</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B000ZI3FQS/104-4179021-4871145"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SN2dxh34baI/AAAAAAAAADI/fyZ-wb7yzxA/s320/Introduction+To+Candle+Making.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5250526214815772066" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Introduction To Candle Making&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" class="by"&gt;Directed by Gatehouse Candles&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Customer Reviews&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;great for beginners&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Making candles can seem intimidating, but this video teaches you everything you need to know. These candles make great gifts. My friends and kids' teachers love getting them!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span class="reviewtitle"&gt;Everything I Needed To Know About Making Candles&lt;img name="pngImage" class="custReviewStars" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/associates/network/star50_tpng.png" alt="5" width="56" height="11" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I received this video as a gift last year and was impressed with the amount of information and the clear instructions provided. I guess this to be expected as the presenter has 40 years experience and is a teacher at one of the larger candle supply companies. I have seen quite a few "how to" videos from other companies and most are just awful (one of them didn't even show candles being poured) or were just trying trying to sell you their kits (or both). This video covered a lot of different waxes, wicks, molds, etc and showed the actual process from start to finish.

Some of the upfront cost are website development service charges, payment options hosting fees etc. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Another avenue for selling your candles is on online auction sites such as eBay.

The shape of the candle is important, because it needs to be wider than it is tall in order to float successfully and not capsize. Most craft stores will carry of variety of molds, some even have multiple molds that will allow you to make several small candles at a time.&lt;p&gt; To make small floating candles, you will need:  Mold  Primed wick  8 oz. paraffin wax  2 T Stearin  Water bath (optional)  Craft knife or sharp blade  Pan lined with foil&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Steps to Making Floating Candles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 1. Prime your wick by dipping it into melted wax several times. This is to prevent the wick from absorbing water when the candles are floating. Then, cut the primed wick into equal lengths, long enough for each candle, plus a little extra which will be used to tuck under and secure the wick to the mold. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 2. Insert a wick through the wick hole in each mold, then fold the end of the wick over against the bottom of the mold and seal the wick firmly to the mold with mold seal. (If the mold you have chosen doesn't have a wick hole, you will need to make one in the bottom of each mold. This is usually only necessary if you have purchased a plastic mold.) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 3. Heat the wax to 180^F. Add the Stearin and any color you desire. After the wax has melted, fill each mold to the top. It's possible your wicks may fall to one side, but they can be straightened later.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 4. Now it's time to let the molds cool. Either set them aside and wait for them to cool down or place them in a water bath. However, if you choose to use a water bath to speed up the setting process, be careful that the mold does not tip and your paraffin ends up in the water bath. I personally don't believe it making it any harder than it needs to be, so I just let them sit right where they are until they have cooled down.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 5. When the surface is beginning to be set, but still soft, pull each wick upright. If you do this while the candle wax is still soft, it will give the wax a chance to settle and you'll end up with a smoother result.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 6. Let the candles completely cool. Since the floating candles are small, there should be minimal sinking and you should not need to top them off. After they are set, remove the mold seal from the bottom of the mold. Straighten the wicks underneath and the candles will drop out of the mold easily. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 7.With a sharp knife or craft blade, cut the underneath wick flush with the candle base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; 8.Heat a pan lined with foil, press the base of each candle down onto the foil. This will melt the base slightly and seal the end of the wick. This is important, if your wick isn't properly sealed, your candle will take on water and won't burn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; With your candles finished, all you have to do is design your centerpiece. You might want to add flowers in a complimentary or contrasting color to the bowl. Sometimes I put large clear marbles in the bottom of the bowl, it just seems to give the centerpiece more depth. The marbles are visible but don't detract from the candles and daisies floating on top. Since floating candles tend to float low in the bowl, their flames are reflected up the glass bowl making a really pretty centerpiece.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;LeAnne Moreland is an avid crafter whose main passion is scented candles.  http://www.designedforyoursuccess.com/Candles.html http://lkmore.wordpress.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/"&gt;Buy Equipments for Candle Making on Amazon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-7353971705051594632?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7353971705051594632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7353971705051594632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-to-easily-make-floating-candles.html' title='How To Easily Make Floating Candles'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-7687255187698737112</id><published>2008-09-17T02:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-17T02:05:48.263-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making Articles'/><title type='text'>How To Easily Make Gel Candles</title><content type='html'>If you are just starting to learn about candle making, making a gel candle is really the easiest way to start. There are just a few things you need to consider first, such as what kind of container you want to use, whether you want to add color to your gel, and how to to prevent bubbles from forming in your candle. &lt;p&gt; You purchase gel in a solid state, mostly. The trickiest part may be getting the gel out of the container you bought it in. However, once you remove the first few crumbs, the rest of the gel usually comes out rather easily, although it's usually in one large piece. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Prepare Your Containers:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Wash and dry your containers well before using. Soap residue, oils and glue from stickers can all interact with your gel and cause unpleasant side effects. You can use almost any glass container for a candle. I've done some really interesting candles with glass I've picked up at the dollar store. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Melting the gel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It's very important you pay attention to the gel as it begins to melt because the gel can reach its flash point (the point at which it bursts into flames) very rapidly and sometimes unexpectedly. It's important to check the manufacturer's instructions to verify the flash point of the gel you have purchased. I always use a thermometer to gauge the temperature of the gel. You just have to be careful the thermometer isn't touching the side of the pan. Under no circumstances should you try to melt the gel in a microwave, it doesn't work and it's dangerous. Be careful when waiting for the gel is melt, because an accident splash while stirring, could result in a serious burn. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Adding Color:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; After the gel has completely melted you can add your choice of color. If you are using solid dye, a small grater can be a big help in adding the dye. A good way to check the color is to place a spoonful of the tinted gel on a sheet of heavy white paper. As the gel on the paper cools, check to see if the color is what you wanted. If the color appears too dark, simply dilute it by melting more clear gel in your pan. If the color is too light, simply add a little more dye. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Choosing the Right Wick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The length of the wick, of course, is determined by the height of the candle container. You can find a great selection of wicks at any craft store. For gel candles, you shouldn't use paper wicks. Wax-coated wicks are stiff and easier to handle. Tabbed wicks are good because they provide you with an easy way to anchor the wick in the bottom of the candle container. This is probably the easiest wick to use. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Positioning the Wick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; If you don't care if there are a few bubbles in your candle, you can hot-glue a tabbed wick to the bottom of the container. Then just pour the melted gel around the wick. The gel will react with the glue and this will cause some bubbling in your candle. Since most of the candles I make now are for my personal use and enjoyment (I love scented candles), this is the method I use. And, since the bubbles reflect the candles glow, this is not a problem for me. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; However, if you are making candles to sell or for gift-giving and don't want bubbles, you can pour the gel first and then while it is cooling, but still soft, position the wick. To do this, first you will need to dip the wick in some melted gel and let it cool. Gently run your fingers down the wick to remove only the excess gel. Roll the top of the wick around a pencil or wooden dowel and position it over the container and position the wick in the center of the candle. When the candle has cooled and set up, cut the wick to no longer than 1/4 inch.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Finished Product&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Now wasn't that easy. Gel candles are not only easy to make their colors are vibrant and you can match just about any color scheme in your home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;LeAnne Moreland is an avid crafter who loves scented candles.&lt;br /&gt;http://www.designedforyoursuccess.com/Candles.html&lt;br /&gt;http://lkmore.wordpress.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/"&gt;Candle Making Supplies on Amazon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3081298961824444730-7687255187698737112?l=candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7687255187698737112'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3081298961824444730/posts/default/7687255187698737112'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://candle-making-reviews.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-to-easily-make-gel-candles.html' title='How To Easily Make Gel Candles'/><author><name>Crafts101</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15265171318856203893</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081298961824444730.post-2203401138252438473</id><published>2008-09-14T20:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-14T20:19:54.195-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Making Supplies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Candle Scent Liquid'/><title type='text'>Candle Lamp Oil Is Odorless Premium</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B000MQFPUC/002-3142969-6286450"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1gp4Ag9FVb8/SM3TduDqUFI/AAAAAAAAABk/CguCD9t0yeA/s320/Candle+Lamp+Oil+Is+Odorless.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246081648489549906" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://astore.amazon.com/candle.making.supplies-20/detail/B000MQFPUC/002-3142969-6286450"&gt;Candle &amp;amp; Lamp Oil&lt;/a&gt; Is Odorless Premium Paraffin (Lot of 2)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="productDescription"&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;No more odor or smoke from your oil candle!!!

In fact candle making can be a great activity to do with your kids, or it can be a great way to make homemade gifts for your friends and family members. To start making candles at home you will need the right candle making supplies. These supplies should include: candle wax, candle molds, wicks, and fragrance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are interested in making homemade candles then the first thing that you will need to find are candle molds. Candle molds are generally sold in craft stores near the candle making wax and supplies. Candle molds can take on a variety of shapes and sizes. You should select a mold that reflects a design style that you enjoy, or that someone you know will enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After you have selected your candle mold the next candle making supplies that you will need to buy are your candle wax, wicks, and fragrance. Candle wax comes in a variety of types and colors. If you want to make beeswax candles then you will need to buy beeswax. Most craft stores should carry this in their candle making section.
