Guest guest Posted November 9, 2000 Report Share Posted November 9, 2000 Hi Shaye: I have to tell you, she is very nice to speak with. For $300,000 in liability it's $190/yr and for $500,000 it's $215.00. Well worth being able to sleep. I was in the insurance business in Michigan and this is well worth the price. Hope your DD gets to feeling better. Have a great one! Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2002 Report Share Posted August 15, 2002 I make both vanilla and lavender candles. I make them in glass votive cups, in terra cotta flower pots, and in 2oz. metal tins. I can make them with lavender buds in them or without. Usually the color turns out to be a rich purple. I make every one of them individually. I wish I had pictures of them, I took some but they turned out kind of blurry. I can try and describe them in more detail if needed.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2003 Report Share Posted February 3, 2003 Hi, all....I am new to the group, and was wondering if any of ya'll would be willing to share tips with me on the best, but least expensive way to go about making my own candles....I realize that I will need wick and wax, but what works best....what wax burns longest...where do I get hard to find scents at an inexpensive price...I really love the vanilla coffee scent...all suggestions are greatly appreciated. I have plenty of pans that I can turn into wax pans...just not sure what is my best bet....thanks Melody " And the Sooners shall inherit the Earth!!
