Ok so I ordered all of the oils and these blends are out of this world!!! Please do more!!! You definitely have a gift!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️ Burning “storm watch” now!!! Heaven!!!!
Hi Bobbi! This made my day! I am so honored you are making and burning my blends!!! Thrilled for you. Love and light always 💛🌱
I throughly enjoyed watching this video. It was so entrancing and relaxing. Love how you take a candle tin to a whole new level, beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your work is extraordinary👌🏻 you are so calm and you so precise 👏👏👏 wow
Hi Pinky! Thank you so much for your comment and a warm welcome to our UA-cam candle fam. Please let me know if there are any videos I can add to my list that might be enjoyable or useful. Love and light always! 💛🌱
I love these videos.. gives a feeling of hanging out, which is nice. Thanks!
Alan!! OMG sending you hugs! I made a lavender zen tester.. absolute bliss!! I can’t stop smelling this as I wait for it to finish curing 😂 thank you for sharing this recipe ♥️
Hi Marissa! I am so delighted you’re enjoying Lavender Zen!!!! This makes me so happy. Please do cure it for a while-this one is on the lighter side in 464 and a longer cure seems to help it. Love and light always 💛🌱
Absolutely love it...spreading the JOY...Thankyou🍀
aww thank you so much :)
Hello Allen! Fellow candle maker here - wishing you a great weekend! I had the opportunity this week of watching your videos while working from home and what a breath of fresh air to the candle making community you are! Thank you for sharing such beautiful energy! Much love and success in everything you do. - Les
Hi Les! Thank you so much for your comment. I am just delighted if you’re enjoying the videos-they’re a joy to film and I’m honored to have you in our UA-cam fam. Love and light always 💛🌱
great video! Would love to see a video on how you make your custom warning labels!
Thank you for your comment Gage! I will add this to my list of future videos. Love and light always 💛🌱
Hey, great work - maybe test the wax melter by filling with water first just to make sure all is sealed then maybe with wax and heat.
Those labels are gorgeous and so are your candles...thank you Allen
thank you so much!!
It’s nice that you shared your oops! It helps me know it happens regardless of how long one has been doing this lol ♥️ I made two candles today and made several mistakes so this came at the perfect time. 🤦♀️😬🥴🤣
Hi Amber!! Oh my goodness, I make my share of "oopses" 110%!!!! I think it's important to leave that footage in there to show you all things happen and you just have to handle it the best you can in the moment!!! Hope you're having a beautiful July.
@@earthglow You too my dear.
Enjoyed the real behind the scenes. Please do make a label/ safety warning label video. Cause they POP!!
Ps lemon pound cake and French lavender will for sure be my next tester. I’ve tried so hard to find a dupe for Pacifica beach lavender lemon perfume ( cause it’s not easy to find in stores ).
Thank you for sharing your process 🌸🌟
Hi Marissa!!! Aww thank you so much for your kind words! I think I might have misspoken in the video if I said I blend those two-the blend I do with the CS Lemon Pound Cake is with CS Honeysuckle, but I do blend several things with their French Lilac. I put all of the recipes I came up with and use in the description box so you’re able to try out my exact ones if you want to!! I will definitely add label design and printing to my future videos list!! Love and light!! Hope you’re having a beautiful July 💛🌱
Beautiful! Inspiring!
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely love your labels
Thank you so much! they're easy to make. Have you seen my video? Love and light
Thanks for sharing your process. Your labels are beautiful.
It was so calming to watch this video. Especially after the music came on and with your calming voice…I almost fell asleep towards the end.🤣
Aww, you made my night Suzie! I am so grateful that this video could provide this for you-that is the most I could have possibly hoped for. Love and light always and thank you for your kind words. It’s really an honor to have you in our UA-cam candle fam 💛🌱
❤️❤️❤️
I love these videos! I would love to see how you make your labels!
Thank you Bobbi!! I’ll absolutely add this to my list of videos. Love and light always 💛🌱
@@earthglow I don’t want to get too deep but your videos are so soothing. I think it’s your voice and your demeanor. I have a terminally ill daughter and I just love to listen to your videos! I take all of your fragrance oil reviews into consideration too. I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤️❤️
@@bobbiadams9296 Bobbi, thank you for sharing this. Your words really mean a lot to me and I am keeping your daughter in my wishes and prayers for comfort and as much peace as is possible while she is here on earth and for you and the rest of the family throughout the process. It means a lot to me if my videos can provide calm and contendedness for you-that’s what candlemaking brings to me and it means a lot to have people to share it with. Please know I am holding your family close in spirit. Love and light 💛🌱
Love and light, Allen!
Thank you so much Nick! Your support means a lot to me. Love and light 💛🌱
Love this video ❤
Thank you Janae!
I did the same thing with my commercial wax melter when I first got it 😂
Thanks for sharing your awesome recipes young man ❤
My pleasure 😊
Beautifully done
Thank you so much 😀
I love making candles … while listening to you make candles!!! From someone else who mixes a lot of fragrances too, have you ever bought the 24/410 tops with a twist spout? It saved my sanity from spilling down the sides - I also save shampoo or lotion bottle tops or even glue tops for this
Hi Niyyah!!! I have not ever heard of these!! Where do you get them? I know Aztec sometimes puts the twist spouts on their bottles though. Love and light always💛🌱
😳 new subbie here ❤yes more raw videos do you have a tutorial for your amazing labels?😊
Yes, I do!!! Have you found it yet?
@Earthglow I did, thank you 😊
Hi Allen - I love your videos, your voice is so calming! Would you mind sharing a link for the camera you use for recording?
Hi Aziza!! Thank you so much for your comment. I used an iPhone 12 Pro Max (I think that’s the full proper name of it🤣) to film this and for most of my other recent videos I’ve used a Sony A7C. I will try to share a link below-it was quite an investment for me but I would buy it again in a second. This is the company I purchased it from since my local camera store was out of stock: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1594029-REG/sony_ilce7c_s_sony_alpha_a7c_mirrorless.html/?ap=y&gbraid=0AAAAAD7yMh09PMbIOKxWeDI79hbUUbSPj&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIx_SQpbPl-AIV04ZbCh0LrAuhEAQYASABEgLvPPD_BwE&lsft=BI%3A514&smp=y
When I am filming, I almost always use a Tamron 17-28mm f2.8 lens. That lens fits directly onto the camera! Definitely investments though and I’m still learning how to use them.
Allen I got the hummingbird candle! It’s smells amazing! 💗
Hi Guz! I am so glad you’re enjoying your Hummingbird candle!! Love and light always 💛🌱
Enjoying your videos ! Just wanted you to know!
Paula 💛💛💛💛💛 thank you!!!!
Great job!
Hi! Thank you so much for your comment and kind words. Love and light always 💛🌱
where do you get those crystals.. would love to make a chakra candle with them
Hi I’m new to candle making and use 464 soy wax with 8 oz tin but with the CD 18 wick. I see you use the CD 14 wick. Is the CD 14 better for hot throw? You do amazing work with your candles. Thank you for your videos. Judy
OMG you gave me back so much inspiration to keep trying and keep learning. I wish my English would be better to complement as you deserve. Thank you thank you thank you. Btw where can buy tin for my candles? I was avoiding them but this way they look so gorgeous and elegant 😍😍😍 I'm in love 💕 thanks again for sharing 🥰🥰🥰
Hi Liz! Thank you so much for your comment and a warm welcome to our UA-cam candle family. Those tins were purchased from Aztec Candle and Soap Supply (I believe their website is candlemaking.com actually). They are the 8 oz silver tins. Love and light always💛🌱
@@earthglow OMG thank you so much I'm becoming an addict of your videos lol once again thanks for sharing 🥰 and thanks for the quick response 😍
Hello Alan,
I’m a beginner in the candle world. I enjoy your video. You did everything so easily and calmly. Your candles look beautiful. Can you please let me know which size are the tins? looks like 8 oz but I’m not sure. Can you make a video of how you do labels? You have a new subscriber! ☺
Hi Jitka! Thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, these are the 8 oz silver tins and I get them from either Aztec or Flaming Candle. I have so much fun making these videos for you all. Love and light always and a warm welcome to our candle fam 💛🌱
So pretty ❤
Thank you so much, Regina 💛🌱
Very Beautiful ❤
Thank you so much, Diamond! Love and light always 💛🌱
Hi Alan!! I loved this behind the scenes video! It was like I was there with you hanging out! These candles are gorgeous 😍😍😍
Hi Tami!! Aww, that makes me so glad!!! That is the most I could possibly want for this video. Love and light always.
OMG BEAUTIFUL LABELS!!!! Why do I feel like can smell those candles? Florida Sunshine I love the smell of oranges but hate the taste. I am so wierd lol.
Oh my gosh for some reason your comment really made my smile!!! Fragrance is so strange and I can totally resonate with this with certain scents. Love and light always 💛🌱
Would you mind sharing the hummingbird bird recipe? My dad passed away last yr in August and he loved hummingbirds thank you
Sure--it's 100% Honeysuckle Jasmine from CandleScience.
@Earthglow thanks, I appreciate! Love your tutorials.
You really dress those tins up - they are beautiful especially with the gems on top.
Can I ask what kind of wick you are using? Thanks :)
Hi Cheryl! Of course you can!! These are CD-14 wicks that I get from Flaming Candle or Candlescience (just depends on who I am ordering from). I find the CD wick series works best with my 464 soy to get the best fragrance throw. Love and light always 💛🌱
Also if I may ask - I would love to watch a video of you explaining the math process for measuring parts - I’m sure I’m like a lot of people who aren’t really good at math 😁😩
Hi Aziza! Did you mean the math for calculating the wax and fragrance percentage? I do have a video on this topic that I’ll try to send you a link to but if there’s something else I would be glad to add it to my list. Just let me know! I love explaining math stuff and trying to make it simpler because I realize that can be intimidating for candle makers!!! 💛🌱
ua-cam.com/video/0vn32fue7lg/v-deo.html 💛🌱
@@earthglow well yes and no - I’m referring to the math in measuring the fragrance oil parts. You listed your fragrance oil combinations but I can’t for the life of me understand how to do that. That would be a great video that I know I’d watch on repeat 🤣😊
@@azizascloset4448 Absolutely! I would be happy to add that to the video list if it would be helpful!! I think you would understand it very easily. Love and light 💛🌱
Hello! What aromas you use on the hummingbird candle?
Hi there! I often share specifics like this on my Patreon. 😊
How long did you take to do it all?
Those are so pretty, where did you get your crystals stones
Hi Bella!! Thank you for your comment. I tend to get minerals at the Tuscan and Denver gem shows but I think you could find these on Etsy. Love and light 💛🌱
Does the rocks cause issues with the candle when it's burning?
No, they do not in my experience in small amounts on the edges of cotton wick candles.
I enjoyed watching this video . I was wondering what wicks you used?
Hi Genneika! Thank you so much for your comment. These are CD-14 wicks that I am using with the 8 oz silver tins. I find that this wick series gives me the best hot throw for soy wax. Love and light and a warm welcome to our candle fam 💛🌱
@@earthglow thank you 😊
I love your videos! May I ask what size labels you use for the wrap around?
Hi Hilary! Of course!! Those are 3.75"x1.4375" from OnlineLabels. They are their OL1809WJ
Weatherproof Matte Inkjet (Inkjet Only). Love and light always!
@@earthglow Thanks! I usually do the wrap around ones that go completely around. Yours look
Nice!
@@hilaryquinn8673 Thank you so much Hilary! I am sure yours are gorgeous too!! Love and light 💛🌱
Hi. I’m pretty new at all this candle making. What do you mean when you say 2 part to 1 part.
Hi Rosa!! Thank you so much for your comment and great question! In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are two oranges and 1 lemon in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is two parts orange to one part lemon or 2:1. Does that make any sense? It’s exactly the same way with the fragrances! 1:1 is really convenient! It just means equal amounts of each fragrance. With the fruit in a bowl analogy, it’s like saying there are 4 peaches and 4 plums in a bowl!! 💛🌱
Where do you get your stones? i want to add some into my boutique
Hi Amber! Thank you so much for your comment. I source minerals from the Tuscan and Denver annual gem shows in general but I think it you look up "crystal wholesaler" on Facebook you could probably find some easier sources. I buy much more at those types of shows than just the small stones, so I wouldn't think you would need to go just for that. Maybe even outsourcing on Alibaba? You just would want to be sure they're genuine.
@@earthglow I found a few on etsy but had not thought to look on fb! I would love to go to the denver and az shows!! 😍🥰
@@lifewithamberb Yes, I have seen some on Etsy too and I think it could be a good starting place kind of like Facebook but the gem shows will give you the best bulk prices as well as lots of selection! Love and light 💛🌱
@@earthglow beautiful thank you!
