I found "glitter candle combos" under Picture This, but that is the only thread of glitter candle photos I've found so far. Is there one with pictures of glitter candles that are the one color glitters?
I found a lovely YouTube video with a customer's Platinum Tureen and hers isn't even as Bronze as mine. I have chosen to find this Satsuma Glitter Candle appropriate for Fall. Now I can contemplate a scent for a Silver Halo candle to fulfill my wish for a white metal glitter candle.
My fist two candles are two weeks old today! I am going to light up Magnolia Blossom and see if it has cured enough!
I really appreciate you all continuing to hold my hand as I enter the Land of CBV. Originally I thought I was just looking for a new candle vendor, but this has turned out to be so much more.

This page from the CBV website has a video with Victoria showing all of (or at least most) the glitter colors that she has available. www.candlesbyvictoria.com/cbv/main.html (page 9, if it doesn't take you to it automatically) I'm not sure of anywhere that there is a huge compilation of pictures of glitter candles, but hopefully the video helps a little.

Thank you, Brittany, I believe that may be the video before Platinum was available. It's a big site, so I could have missed it, thank you for the link! I am certainly using it to consider some of the beautiful Halo glitters for future candles. I have one in Halo Purple now, in Southern Nights.
I lit Magnolia Blossom. No Scent yet. Curing Time = Patience Training. Sigh.

FINDINGS
Lily of the Valley took Five weeks to cure, Honeysuckle Six and Magnolia Blossom Seven, Gardenia and Jasmine were in there somewhere. All were seriously lovely (for those of us who adore strong florals and don't suffer headaches from them). I will order new floral candles in time for next Spring and will reorder those. My first Southern Nights candle arrived already fabulous. I am still waiting on the second one to cure. It might be just about there. It arrived three weeks ago.
Iced Orange Bundt Cake and Night Blooming Jasmine both surprised me by being fabulous only two weeks after arrival! Pink Cupcake was the next of my bakery scents to cure (I think it's cured...) at four weeks after arrival here. I love it. I plan to burn a candle in Pink Cupcake on my Birthday.
My Amish Quilt and Citrus Spice were close to each other in the box and I likely knocked their lids off by accident as I sifted through the packing noodles. I replaced the lids but was unsure whether I'd chosen correctly. I still have a mystery to solve there. I'll just order dupes and figure it out eventually.
I'm still waiting on a group of Scent Shots from my first Scent Shot order eight weeks ago. I expect the next several weeks to be full of scent discovery, even before the August Birthday Sale Splurge arrives.

I had a Lily of the Valley candle that was years old and it always had amazing throw. My scent shot in this scent has a ridiculously strong throw. I really like Lily of the Valley but 1/4 might be too much for my small house. The candle burned wonderully. I will definitely have to order Night Blooming Jasmine next time. Thanks for the review AbbieJolie

My eMail from SEPHORA says I can share my sale code with a friend. This is a 20% off once a year sale for VIB members. The email doesn't SAY the friend has to be a VIB member, so you can try to use it and see if it works. It may be exclusive to VIB members. So if any of you are Beauty junkies as well as wax junkies, my code for the November 7-11 Sephora VIB Sale is VIBTOPIA.
