Well I have placed my order from Wizard Labs for all my ingredients, bottles, measuring utensils, and flavoring. Got my track numbers today so should be seeing it the first of the week. I've been debating on this for a while but the last trip to the B&M pushed me over the edge. Words of wisdom welcome.
Well i have done it now!

Words of wisdom: read the stickies at the top of this sub-forum if you have not already done so.
When first starting on your diy journey, make small 5ml batches, and try simple mixes(1 or 2 flavors), you will end up throwing less away. When you hit on something good, then you can make a larger batch. 
Take notes! You'll get carried away mixing and tinkering, get something you love and go "no what was that again???". Also invest in a dropper if you don't have one, filling a tank for a test is a P.I.T.A.
First I mix em in the bottle, then I shake it.LoL
Been doin' lots of reading here, some believe in steeping, some don't. Whatever you decide, some flavors take time to develop, and or meld.
A little saline 1-2%, seems to help me and some others with the dryness, and like cooking, can taste salty with a little too much, or help.
I definitely recommend getting an app or such.
E liquid recipe manager is great. Get the pro, it's worth it. Agree with 5ml batches in 10ml bottles. Less waste, more room to fix.
Wizard Labs is great. I've been out to see them, they rock. Ask em questions, conner will get right back to you.
Mix on man!

I've got a couple of different apps downloaded. I figured up some different size and percentage batches, got them saved. First going with a 50/50 7mg nic for favor 10% peppermint and 5% menthol. For my wife going with a 70pg/30vg mix. I plan on color coding my bottles and have a chart to keep things straight. And yes to notes!

Depending on the maker the 10% peppermint and 5% menthol might be extremely strong, half those percentages might be enough (or still too strong). Mix some 5 mL bottles of each flavor first, the peppermints are usually strong and 5% is plenty, the menthol is usually stronger than that, a few drops will suffice.
I like the mints and menthol but each flavoring will vary in strength, a small batch will let you know your ingredients.

You can also use Koolada instead of menthol, for coolness without the menthol part.
Usually only takes a few drops.
You'll find out you're always missing 1 or 2 or 5 flavors for a recipe you wanna try, lol.
Never ending story there...

Well I've experimented with about twenty different combinations for a icy peppermint menthol and have narrowed it down to three different recipes. All my ingredients were purchased from wizard labs. These are in order from milder to wilder.
All are 50/50 PG VG 7mg nic (vaped in a dripper)
#1 mix
3% peppermint
3% menthol
#2 mix
3% peppermint
3% menthol
1% EM
1% koolada
#3 mix
5% peppermint
5% menthol
Steep time at least 3 days for flavor to really smooth out and blend. Simple yet very tasty!
