The Wonders Of Wax!!

I love working with wax!  It is the most amazing stuff.  You can make it completely liquid and work with it that way.  You can make it solid, yet warm - and it is moldable to what you wish to make.  That is the most intriquing thing for me.  It has three stages - liquid, firm yet maleable, and hard.  The firm yet maleable is great!  You can mold this bit of wax into what you want.  Forget trying to do it when it's solid and hard, tho.  It will just break.  And you also have to get it at just the right temperature to mold it because to warm and it's still too much of a liquid.  Of course, too cold, and it's hard as rock and will only break.  There seems to be quite a science to it, which I love!

Candles

What do you love about candles?? We all use them either for everyday use, the at home spa feel, or we keep them around for emergencies. What do you use yours for? What I love about candles is that they light up, with a warm glow, the night, your wedding, a room, etc. Want romance? Candles are known for contributing to your romantic mood. Why not check out some of my candles?

A little about myself:

As I said, I design candles. I put butterflies, roses, etc. on my candles. I DO NOT USE MOLDS! At the bottom of this page you can see one of the taper candles I have done. In a way my candles enable a person to bring the outdoors in because of the "nature" items I design. They make beautiful works of art, and if you choose to burn them they're functional too! If you're interested, check out my website at www.WonderfullyElegant.etsy.com.

Have something cool you make? Tell me about it, and where I can find it (your website) so I can come check it out. Have a great day, talk to you soon.

Let me know what you craft!

To all you out there who love to craft:

Let me know what you craft, what you do. Do you do it full time, part time, or as a hobby? Do you go to craft shows? Do you sell it or just do it for yourself and family and friends?
I'd love to hear from you!

Hello to all the crafters

Hey there all you crafters I don't know about you, but I love being a crafter. My medium is candles - what's yours? I love crafting candles for weddings, etc.
The smile and joy on people's faces is the reason I do it. The first wedding I ever did was my best friend's and it was so much fun and made the day so special.
From then on I was hooked.
What made you start? I look forward to hearing from you!
