What do you guys think of the dough bowl candles? Is it your style? I think they are SO pretty! You can really dress them up or make them more rustic. What are your thoughts??
Absolutely loved this video! I bought a dough bowl to do this but all the info online on how to do it made my head spin so I gave up... but your video made me want to try again! THANK YOU! 😊
Hi! I love these! Silly question but when do you stop burning them so the bowl doesn’t burn? I am scared to sell them because of fire starting. What advice do you have? Thank you!
Thank you darlin’ for sharing your secrets. They are lovely. What a great housewarming gift or Christmas present! Love your sweet demeanor & your loving ways w/your family. GOD be with you always. 💕
The dough bowl candles are beautiful! Leslie, is there anything you can't do? Lol! Just kidding. Yes, I would be interested in purchasing one. Big hugs from Texas! 😎🇨🇱
Your candles are lovely, plus you have such a cheerful, soothing voice. This morning I really needed something to give me a sense of calmness, because some days are just more hectic and stressful than others. So glad I tuned in to your channel. Happy New Year.
Hi! Loved this video. I made one so far before watching this video. Do you spray/protect the bowl with something before pouring? To avoid any complications with fire? Or that’s not necessary?Thanks in advance!
I would love to buy one of those from you I think it's so cool I think you should sell them that would be a good idea text a little bit of time but I like that idea
I didn't know you were such a candle making pro. 😆 I would buy one. It's hard to make a candle and get it right. You made it look easy! These would make great gifts too. 💜
Love, love love candles in a dough bowl! Love them in a crystal bowl also! Another You Tube lady did that and I fell in love with those also... the pretty prism look in the room at night. I’m one that burns up the candle and makes another in the bowl. They are so addicting and therapeutic o make. LOL!!! What is the difference between the wax you are using and soy wax ( I’m new at making candles) ...What fragrance do you make yours? Thanks for sharing your method with us! Have a blessed weekend.
This is a paraffin/soy blend. I have a tendency to not use all soy on candles that I add fragrance to, because they do not throw the scent as well! I use all different kinds of scents! Today I made one that smelled SO good like fresh clean laundry! Thanks so much for watching!
When you be so kind to share what type of wax, wicks and fragrance oil you use? I have purchased an abundance of wooden bowl but have been hesitant as I do not know which type will work best with wood. I greatly appreciate it!
I would definitely be interested in buying these candle boats. I was thinking you could even put dried flowers or fruit in it to make them esoterically more appealing. Then selling them on Etsy. Please keep us posted because I would for sure be a loyal customer.
Hi! I actually opened an Etsy shop back in September! My inventory gets sold out quite often, but check it out! It’s under the same name! A Charming Abode! Thanks so much! 💕
Depending on your wax, the fragrance needs to be added at the temperature your wax recommends. I make dozens of candles but am new to dough bowls. My soy wax 464 recommends adding fragrance at 170 degrees. This is to make sure the oil actually incorporates into the wax. I then pour at 125 degrees. All this is wax specific. I never use hot glue as it usually melts and the wick comes loose. Always use wick stickers meant for wax. Also make sure your dough bowl is made for candles for safety.
I saw a more recent video that stated you are no longer selling these.If you are please leave a link. Thank you for explaining how to make these. Also where can purchase bulk dough bowls, if you are no longer selling these.
Thank you for the video. A couple of questions. Can you use natural essential oils? Also I wood turn bowls. I was told by one of my groups not to pour wax for a candle in a wood bowl that I have turned. They say it will catch fire. I know wood burns. But is there a difference in the dough bowls and a wood turned bowl. They are all wood turners. So they may not know? ?? Thanks again.
Hello! I love your vids. Can you tell me what size wick you used in these size bowls ?I feel like the CD26 I have been using gets too vhot and burns too quick. yours look smaller which i think would be a better burn. Thanks!
I haven’t had an issues! I burned mine for 6 hours the other day! I think like with any other candle, don’t leave them unattended! I’m so glad you liked it! ❤️

I love the wood/rustic look. Rugged meets refined!
Absolutely loved this video! I bought a dough bowl to do this but all the info online on how to do it made my head spin so I gave up... but your video made me want to try again! THANK YOU! 😊
Where do you find the dough bowls?
They are so cute!
Loved your tutorial!!! Where do you find those long metal sticks that hold your wicks in place?
Hi! I love these! Silly question but when do you stop burning them so the bowl doesn’t burn? I am scared to sell them because of fire starting. What advice do you have? Thank you!
I didn’t know about dough bowls until I watched your channel.

GOD be with you always. 💕
I love making candles in this vase 😊

I'd buy one, yet I'd also make one. Both my girlfriend and my mom would absolutely love one of these

Hi what did you spray them with for fire precaution
These are so pretty. Now I want to make one! Thank you for such a good video, easy to follow instructions, very informative. ❤️
Do you treat your wood first below adding wax to candle
Your candles are lovely, plus you have such a cheerful, soothing voice. This morning I really needed something to give me a sense of calmness, because some days are just more hectic and stressful than others. So glad I tuned in to your channel. Happy New Year.
Thank you so much 😊 Happy New Year 💖
Do you have to do anything special to the bowls to make them safe to burn candles in since they are made of wood?
Love it ! Love it ! Love it ! Would absolutely buy, they add a great cottage vibe !
So grateful for you! Amazing :)
Glad I found your channel!!! I love the way you explain and demonstrate everything. I'm off to find dough bowls!!!
Did you any?
I just found this video. Yes, I love this idea! I would buy one.
Do you know the difference between the paper core or zinc wicks ?
You candles are so pretty and you are so sweet to share your talent !
Absolutely beautiful! Will you please kindly share the wax, wicks and fragrance oil that you use?
Hi! Loved this video. I made one so far before watching this video. Do you spray/protect the bowl with something before pouring? To avoid any complications with fire? Or that’s not necessary?Thanks in advance!
LOVE!!!
Curious what size wicks you use for the dough bowl. Using 3 doesn’t always reach the edges of the bowls.
I would love to buy one of those from you I think it's so cool I think you should sell them that would be a good idea text a little bit of time but I like that idea
I didn't know you were such a candle making pro. 😆 I would buy one. It's hard to make a candle and get it right. You made it look easy! These would make great gifts too. 💜
Thanks so much 😊 Definitely a good gift idea!!
I’ve heard of some catching fire. Is there some treatment you need to do for the wood?
The candle is lovely. I love them 🥰 Are you impregnating wood with something or just pouring wax onto raw wood? Thank you for this video.
I would love to buy one
Im loving your thermometer! Can you pls tell me where you got it?
where do you buy your supplies? who do you order wicks, bowls, wax
and scents from?
Can you show a video of how you ship your candles like what box you use?
Leslie, these are so so pretty. Thank you for teaching us how to make candles in the dough bowls. I want to try this! 💕
You are so welcome! 😊
Love this video.
Beautifully done.❤ what size wick did you use? ❤

Do you treat the wood bowl with anything before pouring the wax? Or does it not need anything like that?
You have a great attitude and spirit.... subscribed!!! Thank you for this!!

Great video, thx for sharing! When would you add in flowers or other toppers?
Beautiful ❤️

I would love to buy your candles!!! Love your channel and your family!
I feel Ike you would LOVE making cold process soap!
Enjoyed your presentation, you could probably sell these at your local farmers market as well as online.
Dough bowls are pretty expensive, do you have a specific place to purchase so they are a little more cost effective?
I would buy this!!!!
Those are beautiful!
