As I read these posts it seems like people have a lot of issues choosing a wax and a wick. All I want to do is make some small travel candles to accompany my soaps. I am thinking of making and using the supplies Anne-Marie uses in her travel tins. Has anyone made those according to her specifications and have you had and issues?

Can't help with the candles, I suck at making candles :(

But I can tell you to be careful about selling them with your soaps if you don't have the proper insurance. I wanted to add some handmade tea light candles to my soap gift baskets and found out the insurance co wanted to add $6,000 a year to my business coverage.

I agree. One of the reasons why I no longer sell them. Also, anytime you change your container, fragrance, wick or color, you will need to test all over again.[/quote]

I don't have that kind of patiences.

And I think about the amount of candles I could wholesale a year for $6,000. Insurance company doesn't care if I wholesale from another company.

I know it would be lovely to match up the scents for both candles and soaps, but imo its not worth the added insurance expense.

You could ask your insurance broker, maybe mine is so high as I plan on selling at a store.

Maybe reed scent difusers would be a better option

A fellow soapmaker told me she didnt need added insurance to make "tart melt". Maybe you could start with them. Reed difusers sound nice too.
