Hi,
I'm looking for a good candle recipe, I've tryed lots of different recipients off the internet but I just can't seem to get it right at all. I have been using soy wax, I get my oils from 4candles.
I'd like to make teacup candles to give out for xmas presents.

I'm not sure I know what you mean by "recipe", but are you making sure that you are using a container wax? I haven't made teacup candles yet, but I might now, they sound lovely. I make container candles a lot, reusing old Yankee candle jars. I just use a container soy blend and whatever scent I fancy, and fix the pre-waxed wicks in place with adhesive dots thingys (wick is held in place by a wick retainer or lollipop sticks).
What problems are you having?
