thanks, I would have done somemore, but I thought my A-Level ICT coursework could do with some attention! However I think that tommorow should be a day off! so i might get somemore done.

Thomas Very Happy

It's really good Thomas, Was back at CC again today spent yet more money, Laura Ashley things yummy will post them later been at it all eve lol but while i was there was tempted to get a basic little set but thought NO i must remain firm lol I want to get better at this before I try something else but i think it maybe something I will eventually get around to.

Please keep the picks coming though they are beautiful, oh and I met a lady today who has been using the wax as background to her cards and people go mad over them

yes i agree they can make very good background. I think that decoupage seems to go very well with it. However I have not tried using it with anything else. Did the lady say to you what she had done to the card other than making the Encaustic into a card in its own right?

It really does look good as a background for cards.... or as art in its own right!
I have a silver and a lilac wax for it that I used during my GCSE art.... but haven't done it since!!! I wish we stocked it Sad How much is the iron?

Who is your regional manager? are you a large or small store? Kingsley isn't the smallest, but it isn't very big either, we don't stock everything, but if you think it would sell in your store and if you have room talk to your regional manager. flower

yes like "craftyme" said the iron is £19.99. The individual bocks of coloured wax are 99p each. Also a large pack of the A6 sealed card is only £5.99 (i think, if this is wrong please correct me). This pack would last you a very very long time. When I first stared I bought the pack with a selection of A4,A5 and A6 but I cannot for my life remember how much I paid for it.
