Per hive and honey's description of their SP487 wax it is a no soy, vegetable wax. It says it contains no paraffin or palm so it's interesting to try and understand if it doesn't have soy either what vegetable wax are they're using Considering this is a harder wax with a higher melt point
I started the video shortly before noon and went to your website before you even started pouring the wax. I can't wait to get the candle--the vessel is so pretty!
Hi, I ❤ the periwinkle color! I'm tempted to pull out my 2 molds after viewing your video 😊... Re: the new melter, I may try the smaller one since I am still new in my journey and I'm low on space . Hopefully, they're in stock. Thank you!
Hello Allen, you and this video are absolutely amazing, I finally feel confident that I will be able to create my own cement vessels as well. thank you so much for sharing your experience and showing that with practice this is possible.. I am feeling so relaxed listening to your music and taking notes. again thank you.
Hi Denise! Thank you! I actually ordered it from some pottery shop and paid a TON of shipping (the 50 lb bag was close to $90 for reference and the material costs about half this without the shipping). Looking for a more local supplier!!
What do you think about the melter you were sent? It didn’t get such great reviews, so it’s a good thing you didn’t buy it? There are temp maintaining issues, just stopped working, one person shared a video showing the top of her melter which did look as if it had blown wax from the bottom and out of the top, covering her other tall melter and everything within the vicinity of her melter (kitchen counter, floor, everywhere). She felt there must have been an air bubble that formed at the bottom. It was a mess! Since your warning of wax burning in your Digiboil, I’m not sure what to choose? Were you using beeswax then? Do you feel the beeswax may have contributed to the burning as opposed to other waxes like soy or coconut? Your vessels are absolutely lovely! Have you checked Mad Micas? I appreciate their company mission and philosophy so very much. They also have glitter. As I understand it, every product they sell is vegan and can be used to make face products like eyeshadow in addition to soap. Much love to you and your family!🙏🏻❤️🕊️
Amo seu trabalho vai nos dando mais informações sobre esse novo aparelho menor tomara que eles enviam pro Brasil 🇧🇷 desejo muito comprar um pequeno por enquanto
Hi! They’re linked in my Amazon storefront under “concrete candle making.” They should also be linked in the description box of this video under “concrete candle making.” :)
Hydrostone is a blend that contains a large amount of gypsum in that blend but they are not interchangeable. Hydrostone has an extremely high psi and heat resistance which makes it suitable for candle making.
How cost effective is making hydrostone vessels!? I just heard about them and have been interested in making my own vessels. I saw a 10lb bag of hydrostone but how many vessels do you get out of a 10 lb bag? I can’t seem to find that anywhere. I love your vessels!
Hi everyone! These candles will be posted on the website at 12 noon EST tomorrow (Sunday!)
Enjoy!!
I am not even in the candle business but making the containers seem SO satisfying!❤️❤️❤️
Right?!
They are beautiful they look like clouds in the sky. Love them
The vessels are beautiful!!! I love the wax from hive and honey too. Thanks for sharing Allen. 💜

Loved watching the process and that periwinkle blue is so beautiful.

Hi Patty!! Hydrostone has been a lot of fun to work with!! Hope you enjoy :)
Is it hydra stone supposed to do the dry lake bed method when mixing the water and powder? Perhaps that's why it was harder to mix?

Where did you get your hydrostone? Loved the video

Thanks very much. I make concrete vessels now but love the look of hydrostone.

thank you for your video , Which material, hydrostone or concrete, is more heat-resistant?
Pour your water and add the hydrostone to the water and wait for 5 mins or until it has a cracking look on the top. Then mix. Trust me.
Totally agree
Very minimum to none bubbles
Are the 8oz vessels and with your warning labels did you just add them to the bottom off your vessels and they turned out 😍
Glad you enjoyed this one! Yes, I place warning labels with the net weight on the bottom of the vessel.
Beautiful vessels, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Glad you enjoyed, Carmen!
Hey Allen you should try the in the pot swirl method, too...if you haven't already 😊 definitely will give some nice swirls too
Thanks for sharing this!!
Do you prefer hydrostone or cement all?
Where did you buy your candle vessel mold from? Those are beautiful vessels.
Beautiful!! I love them
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!
Thank you 😊
Love it!
Salve, come vanno protetti i vasi prima di versare la cera? Perché a me risultano unti all'esterno.
Great video! Beautiful art! If I decided to use a wooden wick,,,would I use 1 or 2?
Definitely one!!!

Are those wax melers linked also..trying to find the smaller one ..would work well to keep my tart wax which is different separate from my other wax
Yup, all products mentioned are linked in the description box of this video :)
May I ask what are those spoons you use to stir your hydrostone/ cement please?

Hi hydro stone and gypsum (pop) both are same?
Hydrostone is a blend that contains a large amount of gypsum in that blend but they are not interchangeable. Hydrostone has an extremely high psi and heat resistance which makes it suitable for candle making.
Where may I buу that red silicone cups and backets? 🎉
Amazon!

Totally depends on the size of your vessels and your process! I love making them personally.
Hi I just find your video. Real like it. Do you have any video formula for hydrostone /weather mix? ❤🎉
Glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for your kind words 😊 What specifically do you mean by Hydrostone/weather mix?
Where do you get your hydro stone ?
From a construction place 300 miles from me. It’s a commitment for sure!
Do you water bath them?
I do not, personally. I have in the past but notice no differences.
What brand of hydroston do you use ?
Just standard old USG Hydrostone!
Hey do you offer online classes ?
I do not currently :(
