Hey this is Autumn I’m glad the hot pad worked out for you! Get outside and get happy! Lol she gone!
Thanks again Autumn! And thanks to all you girls for my thank you note and MORE goodies!! love it :)
You are such a funny little sweetheart. Loved the canning. Man, that’s an old American canner. It will last forever!! Take care!! 🌞❣️♥️🌞
Seeing you can the meat takes me WAY back to when I was a kid. My Mpther used to can fruits and veggies. We lived on a "farming ranch" so we always had "something going on". My Father was a butcher after the Korean War so I grew up with my Father teaching me hunting and fishing, skinning and cleaning "all sorts of critters".
Thank You for the stroll down memory lane.
Y'all take care and God Bless!!!!
When I was a kid I lived without electricity and thus we made our own candles for light etc.
I found that the water quench on the candle dipping leads to a candle that would spit a lot as it burned. Later I went to a slower method where I would tie 6 strings onto a rod and dip 6 at a time each in their own wax pot. I could then hang the candles and let them cool without the water quench. Even though it was a longer wait between dips, I was dipping six at a time and thus my output was better.
Better burning candles at that point.
yep sometimes they do sputter from the water droplets suspended inside the wax. i try to keep water drops to a minimum!
@@therealgirlinthewoods I wonder if using distilled water would help in that regard. Will have to try it !
I am so happy to hear you talk about the importance of having your gauge tested. I am new to canning (at 62 years of age!! 🤣), and I first heard this recommendation from Carolyn at Homesteading Family. She teaches canning classes, and she’s amazing! She said you can have the testing done at your local County Extension Office, so off I went, with the lid to my pressure canner (with gauge), in hand. She also said you should have the gauge tested each year at the beginning of canning season AND even when you buy a new canner. This advice was seconded by the County Extension Office. Apparently, while the factory installs the gauge, they don’t test them. My brand new pressure canner gauge was actually off, not by a whole bunch, but 11 pounds pressure is what is needed to ensure the safety of the food you’re canning. The last thing I want to do is make myself or anyone else sick, or worse, dead!! Everyone I’ve told this to has scoffed at the idea, which baffles me; why wouldn’t you want to make sure you’re food is safe? But don’t get me started!! 🤣🤣 Great video; your venison looks delicious!!
It would be such an honor to meet you guys. Y'all are so cool! Salt of the earth peeps. :)
I like the canned venison too. Been canning it for 40+ years. Take care Brooke.
Awww. Edna is so adorable! Hello to The Woof and all the other fur babies. I love the wax dipping tutorial TY. Howdy to Dave and the kids.
You and Dave are amazing people. I want to thank you you both for teaching me everything I need to know about self reliance. I want you to know I’m going camping in the up by myself for the first time ever with your inspiring stories. Camping, fishing, cooking and making coffee over open fire, I can’t wait.!!Thank you Brooke you are truly a beautiful women inside and out. I hope to meet you one day.
I really love how much you value those old tools. Also recognized this in some of your other videos. Often people buy and buy, think they need the newest and modern stuff, while those old pots, etc. are kind of indestructible, not to mention, their history, memories. As for me, I always think, the old stuff has a soul of its own. Besides: great video and beautiful candles!!! :-) Thank you for sharing!
I received a jar of canned venison from my friend in Hersey. I never knew what to do with it, but it looks just like yours so I reckon I still can use it!!. Loved the candle creating.... Gonna do that!!
Your awesome Brook. You and Dave are amazing. Such a nice couple and amazingly talented. Can't tell u how calming I find your little overnights in the cabin. You are just so happy and and such an inspiration
Brooke: "There's enough in here to throw..."
Me: "A party? Please say a a party."
Oh I love that Bug Out Bag.... It's going on my Mother's Day List :-) the folks in Texas could have used one lately too.
I’ve learned so much from you. My husband was so excited when I asked him to buy me a fire starting kit. Lol
That is awesome!
Luv it 👊🏻
👍
That bag is amazing, I am quite impressed! Another great video Brooke!
Your Kitty is beautiful!💗
Dryer lint in a ziplock bag for fire starter. Easy add.
We take toilet paper rolls when empty or bigger paper towel and put in dryer lent and fold both ends. Great to stockpile store in giant ziplock to have a supply to go.
Wow never thought of that, I have a massive bag of lint in my laundry room for "trash", now I know what I'm doing with it!
@@FBIMOUS377 I use the empty toilet rolls and paper towel rolls for different sizes. I sometimes will add a used tissue into the batch.
I have several old 35mm film canisters jammed full of dryer lint. Works like a charm!
My mother’s name was Edna😄. I love listening for all the little pops of the tops.
awwww
I am a prep-per I am 74 years old lived in a very poor neighborhood for twenty years. I married my husband at 20 years old we both worked hard to make a great life for ourselves and our only daughter. I have learned how to save and be frugal I have been cooking since I was seven years old. Canning, freezing, processing meats is very important in our future.
Love your cat's name, Edna. That's what my Mom's name was. She has been gone going on 16 years. That canner sure is old. My mom did a lot of canning.
nice
That cat is livin the dream ❤️ I love it ❤️
lol yup buncha lucky strays
I worked at a UW-Extension office for 43 years. When gauges tested out at more than 2 lbs different, it was recommended to get a new gauge. Plus get the new gauge tested also. Canned venison is the best!
Omg! Fell in love with Edna!
i know and she has personality in SPADES!
Yaaay I love beeswax candles !!! I made a wish for a beeswax candle tutorial and here it is. Thanks Brooke, I admire your lifestyle.
I remember my mother making meatballs just using ground venison and canning them in beef broth. That's all, nothing else. When we ate them, we would just heat up the contents of the jar and eat. No need to add anything. It was delicious! We would serve it to people who claimed they hated venison and they couldn't get over how good it was and how simple the recipe. How I miss those days.
Pretty beeswax candles homemade tied
In some pretty brown paper with a pretty ribbon sounds like a beautiful gift! Maybe I’ll make some for gifts for next year! Thanks for sharing! Also that is a pretty cool survivor pack I think my honey would love that!
Great video Brooke! Thank you for the shoutout! We very much appreciate it! Our girls talk about you at least four or five times a day still! Lol
You are so welcome! So happy for you guys and happy to have met you all :)
My mom used to can our huge broiler chickens bone in. To fit the birds, and the size of her family (she was feeding eight or nine kids there before I left home, I'm the eldest of eleven) she canned the chickens in half gallon jars. We used to grab jars out of the pantry and eat the chicken and jelly right out of the jar. Mom also canned green beans, which I miss to this day.
yep i've done the same with my chickens but quart jars!
Hi. I’m a new follower. So glad I found you and your husband. You are such an amazing woman!!! I just love your ZEST for life!!! As I said, just starting to follow you so watching olde videos and trying to learn more about you and your husband. This is the first time I have seen Edna. She’s beautiful. Is this your main home where you both live? Love to see how you cook things too, at home and in the wilderness. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. A forever follower!!! 💕
Welcome!!
Loved the candle dipping! I was wondering where you were, good to see you back!
We can meat in a beef broth the same way you do with water. My parents used beef broth to can venison, the venison had a delicious smell and taste. My wife and I can all the veggies we grow in our garden. Love the candle making idea.
If 2020 taught us anything, it was to really start taking our preps seriously. We learned to can and dehydrate. Water source is what we are struggling with. Still on the grid and only brackish water close by. Everything else I feel pretty good about. Thanks for another great video!
That was an awesome video,I like the bees wax candles because they don’t give off any petroleum fumes.!
Looks like I know we’re too come for great venison 😊☮️
That's a good point about the fumes, thanks👍
What about soy candles.
@@mangomadness8635 I didn’t know they made soy candles,thanks for the tip it’s something I’ll look into
Oh the memories of my mom canning , venison , veggies an fruit.....I can still hear her hollering at us.....”stop eating the peaches !!!”......if you want one peel it!!!.....good times
love it
Woopie our girl in the woods has come alive....must be that whiff of spring
Another AWESOME video, Brooke! I’ve already been outside this morning and got happy shoveling some fresh snow that fell during the night. Visiting my Mom in Montana is Sooo Great!🤗
I canned on my old woodburning stove for almost 27 yrs. Oh how I miss it!
I always wondered if a wood stove could get hot enough to can on. How did it work and how to you regulate the heat?
Hi Brook
I’m pretty new to your channel but I’m loving what I’m learning
I’m pretty much an outdoor gal myself
We meaning my family we lived in tents for 5 months till the snow came than we lived in a small travel trailer because mom and dad were building a log house when the living room was built we all moved in on buck beds I was about 5yrs old
Ever since than I was hooked
I can’t wait till your next adventure
Liz
With my canner and all the book it says to let the steam out for 7 minutes before you lock the steam thing. Then watch your pressure and start timing it when it come to the #’s you need to watch. I bought a cheap aluminum double boiler just for candles. Now that the kids don’t live here any more I don’t make candles. They were great as a 4-H project. 😄. I now buy my beeswax candles from local beekeepers.
yes I wing it a lot... consulting a canning book is always helpful!!
I can my venison raw. The heat from canning will cook it when it is cut up into small chunks. I also add some salt straight on top of the meat before I put the lids on. On some, I may use cajun seasoning or other spices just to change it up. The stuff goes great with crackers and cheese. I eat it straight out of the jar!
My mom's canned venison is like gold in our family. Childhood memories of her venison stew with the canned venison and homemade dumplings - So Yummy!
Yay, ordered my backpack. Going to make a fire starter kit to add to it. Already have the first aid kit, thanks for the discounts! :) You make everything look pretty simple or at least, with a little elbow grease, way easier than thought of initially - I like that! Thank you!
awesome I think they're the best - yep get a good firestarter and good to go!
I thought I knew quite a bit but I learn a lot from you and your husband Dave. Thank you both!
You are one special person I love watching you ❤️ my sister passed in April.And my other sister was staying with me for awhile .well on Feb 10 I found her dead .we are burying her Friday the 18 .Her birthday was Valentine's day. But I just want you to know watching your videos make my day .love ya girl and Thank you so much.
Aloha !Great vid. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your life.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi! Norway here!
Been following your adventures outside for a time now.
And im impressed!
I have a cuestion about harvesting pine needles in spring?
I allways cook up a big kettle of spring green pine needles for winter. Good for the throat, lots of vitC and beating colds!
Is this something one does in america?
The vikings svore to this.
I usually disolve a vitC tablet into the miks just to be sure that it will hold through winter and it works fine, even if the container isnt fully desinfected. Because the vitC is not actually vitamins, but ascorbic acid! Yeah! 👍
Love your Maine Coon...I had one once, his name was Artemis after one of the actors on the show, The Wild Wild West Show, character Artemis Gordon. My Maine Coon lived to be 20 yrs old. Great cuddler, great with babies and kiddos, great family cat.. Awesome mouser too!
Had to compliment you on one comment. You said that home is the best place to be, but a bug-out bag is important for those cases where you have to leave for one reason or another. And that it needs to include the things that would help you get to a place of safety. Bravo for saying that. Far too many people advise "bugging out" for pretty much any reason. That's not the idea. Bugging out means leaving a place of safety (normally safe, but no longer), and making your way to another place of safety (prepared in advance). That journey between the places of safety is necessarily "not safe" by definition if nothing else. A bug-out bag should help you traverse that "not safe" area between the two "safe" areas, and help you get settled in the new safe area.
Of course, that second place of safety has to be ready for your arrival during inauspicious times.
Love that little radio. The antenna broke off, but all else is fine.
Be sure to check the rubber on the lid of your pressure cooker. If it has cracks or dry,, replace it to assure a good seal.
That part of the knife on the bottom for ripping, is actually a seatbelt cutter, there should be a small point on the bottom of the handle, thats for breaking windows. Good for when showing up to a person trapped in a car.
Love that you are sharing your tutorials. Want to try canning which is not a big thing here in the UK but after Covid I feel we all must be more secure and ready for anything. These are all things I need to do. Love the beeswax candles making too.
I had a canner exactly like yours 40 years ago!!
Very awesome Brook! I used the things I have learned from you and your husband during the big freeze and blizzard we had in Texas last week. We had no power and no water for around three days and the temperature dipped down to negative 5 degrees below zero. Also, most Texans don't know how to deal with the cold. I personally spent a Winter semester in Northern Quebec, Canada while in college but , in general we have very warm weather here and don't deal much with freezing temperatures. Thanks for the info Brook and Bush Radical!
Great advice, love the canning idea of meat, the survival pack with exactly what you need to bug out. Also really like the candle dipping tutorial, have to try that myself. Love candles. Awesome video, and love the clarity of the video, really sharp! Thank You Brooke for all the great advice, and product info!! Stay safe!!
I've seen movies with the heroines name being Edna. My mother's name is Edna(which she hates btw) but never have I ever seen an Edna kitty. Love it💓
lol nice
I just love it when she says , " She gone!" Then duck out of focus ,then come back. This woman has so much energy. WOW 😮.
What you see there is a woman that loves life. Look at that smile. She radiates joy. She is amazing at showing how much she loves what she does and does what she loves.
Beeeeeeeeezz Waax .. love it.. i use it for all kind of things from fixin wax to wood finish... it is amazing stuff... evnen make cobblers wax for fly tying .. draw slide oh yea zippers too... just great stuff.....
yesss
My husband doesn't think I need a bug out bag. But I just bought two Osprey Backpacks, a brand new Osprey Aura AG 50L which arrived earlier in the week and an Osprey 10L Verve Hydration Backpack just arrived in today's mail (pre-owned, but in excellent used condition and I saved a bundle). I have almost everything I need, because I started prepping last year after watching your videos and some other RUclips videos. I just need to pack it all up. I still need to get five more items: a hydrophobic down sleeping bag, an insulated air pad, a sawyer squeeze water filter, a 3L water bladder and a compass. I think I have everything else. May I suggest for women to ADD a silicone MENSTRAL CUP, because several tampons aren't going to get you through 72 hours and pads are bulky and take up a lot of space in your bag. After seeing this video I'm going to add my Sony Walkman with AM FM radio and add some rechargeable AA batteries to my backpack. Thanks. P.S. you're hair looks lovely straightened. P.S.S. I may try making beeswax candles, you made it look easy! Also WHAT IS YOUR PLAN for all your pets in a long term SHTF scenario peridicament? I have two dogs and a kitty cat and two Bourke Parakeets. If SHTF, the dogs travel well enough in a vehicle, one is a 5 pound Yorkie and the other is a 12 year old geriatric Poodle, Gordon Setter and Rottweiler mix. We're not bugging out on foot because we won't make it that far! I think I should have a small bag prepared for all my animals too. Sorry this post is so long. But one more question. Do I keep my bug out bags with me in the house and put them in my vehicle/s each and every time I leave and return? Thanks.
first off good on you for all your supplies! really sounds like you could go camping too :) if you can stay home, always stay home if possible. prepare your home accordingly. and yes, plan for pets, elderly, kids, etc. to go with and plan what they'll need. i've lived in the country my whole life so it's hard for me to wrap my head around a need to "go" anywhere and hard to plan for animals in that regard too. i'll be stayin put unless it's life or death. but these preparations should always be with you and some kind of kit should be in your vehicle at all times.... just when you need your supplies you'll need them available wherever you are- whether home or car. To be safe, keep your ONE and only pack (if that's all you have) in your vehicle and then you're covered either way. you got it girl! good luck :)
@@therealgirlinthewoods Thanks Brooke 😊. I too live in the country. I do go tent camping but not often. We use our 5th wheel now. I'm just trying to prep for worst case scenario 😪. Hope I never have to bug out! Have a great weekend. April.
We put clove oil, vanilla extract, lemon oil, whatever smell you like, in our tapers. House always smelled great. Even with farty old dogs!
Something I likely have mentioned before might be quite useful at your new cabin, and at your site in the U.P.-Lodge makes a combo deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid, that is also on the inside a shallow skillet, with a handle like the deep lower part, Wagner used to call theirs a chicken fryer, that one had a conventional cover, I didn't get much use from it for quite a while, as it was bought for camping, and then I didn't get out for that very much, and not at all in the past 2 /2 years with medical adventures, covid lockdowns, etc, I have however started using it quite a lot atr home, the lid makes a terrific griddle for pancakes, etc once nicely seasoned, and is still deep enough for most any frying,I tried it finally the other day for an omlet, and it worked great -shake the pan and the eggs slid around nicely (I also have another shallowish lodge (chef series I think) that looks much like an omlet pan, gently rounded sides and all that also works greatr and is slightly deeper.
The set is most useful as besides a deep skillet, covered or not, a shallow skillet, it can also serve well as a shallow Dutch oven, making it a 3 in one, might be handy at the cabin and tent for its versatility -3 pans in the space of one, but far too heavy to backpack . I still see them at most larger Wal,arts- in the camping section-just a thought you might find useful.
It would be nice to see an enactment, using the bugout bag... and getting new supplies for it
Just an FYI. First, you must vent your canner fir 10 minutes once it starts to steam before closing your pressure valve or adding your regulator/weight. VERY important part of pressure canning to ensure you get proper pressure for processing. Second, you should ALWAYS use vinegar to wipe your jar rims to ensure there's no fat from the meat that could compromise your seals and then add a few tablespoons to your canner to keep your jars from getting cloudy. And finally, since you're pressure canning there's no need to worry about sterilizing your jars, lids or rings as they're going to be sterilized during the pressure canning process. And WOW! That All American canner has been around for a while hasn't it?
You should let the canner vent a steady stream of steam for 10 minutes. Then flip over the little gizmo and start building pressure.
Thank you , now I can make bees wax candles. I did get outside today and was happy. The temp here in my part of KY was 61 all Sun all day! Praise God!! I was only able to walk around the yard but, it sure felt great.
wow 61!!!
I love the way you explain things and you make it look so easy!!
Thank you! 😊
Green beans, tomatoes & other meats also have to be can with the pressure canner with the pressure gauage, otherwise you can die from the canned food, Fall of 1960 I moved to Nashville Tenn. A gruop of docters & nurses when to a Country INN, THEY LOVED THE GREEN BEANS, THE FOLKS THERE HAD RAISED THEM & CANNED IN WATER BATH. Soon after eating them 1 after another got sick & SEVERAL OF THEM DIED ! Enjoy your videos!
I make a bugout bag every year. Because I live 15 second walk from the largest river in California and it floods every year. Though we have burms around the property so (knock on wood) we have never been flooded out. But it gets a bit worrying when the water gets to just a couple feet from the top of the burm. I put together a pack with sleeping bag, small tent, food, water, coffee, tobacco, dogfood, antibiotics, toilet paper, lighters, waterproof matches, HAM walkie talkie (I don't own a cell phone and "some kind" of communications is nice to have), USB power banks, flashlights, hand crank & solar lanterns, etc., etc. And an inflatable kayak just outside my door to load everything in to get it over to the high ground. Long before there's any real danger here, all roads to and from here are flooded, so we're on our own. Even in mild flooding years those roads flood and it's a week or two till the water goes down and we can get to a grocery store. So keeping enough supplies on hand to last awhile is just a way of life here.
When I was a kid we made our own candles. I remember one time my step-sister caught the whole thing on fire on top of the stove. So I'm always real careful when melting wax over open flames because I've seen what can happen if you're not careful.
Good stuff Duck! I wouldn't doubt you could take care of yourself! Yep gotta watch wax and flames!
Thank-you enjoyed our time together.
I would love to try venison like that! I believe the best survival kit is the one you make yourself, but that one does tick a lot of the boxes. I like to keep my wilderness camping gear, plenty of food, gallons of water, and survival items stowed in the vehicle and a couple backpacks so I'm always prepared, as things can and do go wrong any time! I once had to wait 10 hours on a freezing northern highway without enough gas to run the truck, for example. My sleeping bag was a lifesaver.
Thanks Brooke for the tips! And the canning advice! Love love love your channel, Da Woof, your pretty kitties, and of course you and your family. Gunn sub to Dave's new channel as soon as I find it lol. Much love from So.Cal.💟
sweet thanks!
Great video with some awesome info! The bees wax is a total thumbs up along with canning the venison. I use to help mom can blackberry jam 😋! I can imagine the venison being quite delicious!! Again thanks for the info Brooke!! Blessings to Dave and you & the family.
I really enjoyed this video, Brooke. I've never seen one like this of yours. It's the first time I've seen you in an actual "real" house with cats and all the comforts of home. I've never seen your hair out of the braids either. Anyway, I enjoyed it a lot. Hope this comment finds you well.
I can my elk meat every year. It's so good! Canned meat is perfect for so many dishes. I even can ground elk meat minus the fat. I'm into prepping. Wish I could find beeswax. Love the candle making!
Tampons and kotex make amazing bandages for deep wounds. Should have saran wrap in that kit as well.
It's amazing, even if your pets are a mile away, take something out the pot and there they are. Had Great Dane who would chill out in another room when I was cooking. He didn't stir no matter how often the food in the oven or the stove top was checked. The moment I thought it was done, there he was was, grinning.
Simple, easy instructions are the best and lot of information packed in this video. Good bugout bag and Surfshark is good as well.
lol yep that's how it goes!
I just had venison steaks for lunch today with fried potatoes and onions .... from my very own deer!! And yes i dressed it and processed it... unfortunately Missouri deer are not as big as the deer im used to from growing up in upstate new York.... i dont know if it is just a super good tasting deer or the fact i hunted it and processed it myself... but i am always blessed with extra meals
awesome love it!
That pressure cooker looks just like the one we had growing up. I was always scared of that thing. LOL My Father raised Bees and I never thought to do anything with the wax (except chew it) wish I could turn back the hands of time....for a week. Thanks Brooke, cool stuff and this brought back awesome childhood memories.. Take care.
I've never had a beeswax candle, now I want one. The canned tender venison s looks so good, it is so good for you too, with the price of beef, my deer rifle is coming along with me.
Years ago I turned my grandmas pressure cooker into a moonshine makin machine. Unfortunately all I got was some crazy fuel that burnt quite well but not the greatest moonshine.
lol yeah i once made a batch of salmonberry wine in the Aleutians that was pretty bad. we still drank it tho! lol
@@therealgirlinthewoods yuck! I tried drinking ours but couldn’t handle it. It was probably poison.
That is sooo cool on the candles. I need to do that asap
Nice memories when my grandma was canning all the veggies and fruits that was not consumed immidiatly from her garden.
Great bugout bag. I have the same radio in mine. Your bag has some things I don't have and will get for my bag. You could get a Ferro rod and just a simple bic light too. Stanley has a nice pot with two green cups that stack inside the pot. I love mine. About 12 bucks at Walmart or Amazon.
Wow what pretty candles. 🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
Thank you! 🤗
Awesome video. Loved the canning info. I did think it was more complicated than that lol. I remember making candles as a kid. That bug out bag is absolutely awesome. Thank you.
thanks for showing us how to make your bee's wax candles , love it. the survival bag is awesome great item to have when out and about, your canned venison will be tasty i am sure . thanks for the video Brook
Reminds me of all the work my mom did canning salmon and veggies! ✝️👍🏼
Hi again BROOKE
Great vid and info! You always do such a good job with step by step directions and thorough info...
All the critters so pretty and sweet. What ever would we do without them!
Happy to see you and thank you as always for sharing. See you again next time.
God bless
Thanks so much!!
I use a metal nut to weigh wick down. Then cut them off after.
Tampons or pads make excellent compression bandages for someone who has any bleeding wounds.
Thanks for sharing the internet and candles making. Also thanks for sharing for safety kit
Great video! Thank you for an easy way to make beeswax candles and showing me how to can venison. I can everything now but never canned venison.
This was very educational thank you. I liked learning about the candles. I have not been able to can, due to the fact that my stove either is too hot or not hot enough. It's either 8 and I need 11 or it's 15. There is no middle for my stove. I've not been able to can. Something I've always wanted to do.
Enjoyed learning from you. God Bless
I found your channel by accident during the frozen tundra blizzard of '21 we had here in Texas. I have been addicted to your videos ever since. I love the red coat with the black stripes !!! Could you tell me where I might buy one? You are such an inspiration !!!!
Another great one! I love canning venison in my All American canner which is made in Wisconsin! It’s great with mushrooms and gravy on rice, on wide egg noodles, etc. cool 72 hour pack as well. I’m a safety nut and personally I put my hair back or up to avoid the singe. Burnt hair smells so bad!!
Oh my goodness, a page right out of my kitchen! I can venison, chicken and pork chops and beef.....I don't precook them, I can them raw. Only remember, cold meat goes in a cold water canner, and then you heat them. Hot meat, as you do it, in the hot water in the canner. I have a newer model American, and I have to vent mine for 10 minutes during the beginning of the canning.
I have made decorator candles as I love the PRIM look......I use the emergency candles that you can purchase at the dollar Tree Store.....(I think, 10 for a dollar) They are small, maybe only 6" high. Between the dipping process, you roll the candle, while still quite warm, in instant coffee. Also, your melting wax has whatever color crayon in it, that you want your candles to come out...I usually melt brown crayons. ONce they are rolled in the instant coffee, dip again and they really look prim! I do use them for decor purposes but of course, they ARE useable! Love your video! I drop anything else I see on the computer, and gravitate to you!!! Love and hugs, Bev in Maine!
awesome bev!
I’ve never made candles ! Now I want too ! Love the smell of 🐝 bees wax candles.. I love survive ware
Have a safe blessed night! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Not too bad. You're right it needs a fire kit and cook pot, but it's also missing a saw for fires etc.
Thank you Brook 🤠. Enjoyed the candle making. I enjoyed watching you pressure cook the jars. The older pressure cooker I have, had no gage. Thank you for sharing 🤠 Brook n Maisy. ... Arkansas Clyde 🇺🇸👍❤️
Would love a video of you cooking a meal with your beautiful canned venison!
