I bought some faux wax and a stamper at Michaels. Plan was to go to town today using Vicki's instructions from her bio, but the glue gun trick is not working! Wax is not coming out like it's supposed to, just oozing from the sides. When we try to light the wick and melt the wax that way, ashes comes off of the wick and it looks icky mixed with the red wax. Any tips, ladies? Please let me know. These invites needed to go out days ago!
