Thanks Karen. I'll look those up! -
Hi! I have a craft market in a few days and I'm wondering what type of packaging to use. Do you put the candles in a bag wrapped in tissue paper or a even box? Or just out it in a bag? Melts would be easier since they don't have breakable glass. I'm thinking of just using brown lunch bags for those. Thanks!

Are you asking what fragrance to add? -
Vybar enhances fragrances & color quality, increases hardness and surface gloss, and also helps reduce air bubbles and mottling. Recommended usage is 1/4 - 1/2 tsp per pound of wax.

I got my email address set up and added that. Thanks!

Ok I think I am going to create an email address. Is yours related to your shop name?

I have been using KY Para Soy blend with 1 tsp vybar per pound. I love it and it does come out looking very creamy and pops out of the clamshell very easy. http://rusticescentuals.com/Ky-Para-Soy-Tart-and-Votive-Blend.html

Wow what a selfish thing to say about their product. It is definitely a greed/money thing!

Hi! I am in the process of creating business cards. I do not have an email address for my business and usually get messages from either Etsy, Facebook or texts/calls from people who already know me about my products. Should I create a business email and include it on my cards? I don't want to put my own personal email. Also should I put my cell number? I am feeling cautious about my cell on the cards. The design now has my Business name, my name, location only (no actual address), Etsy address and facebook address. Is this ok in you opinion? Thanks!

I'll definitely try out some 6006 and Ecosoya PB. Those are my next testers. I love the KY parasoy but was also looking for an all soy wax also for someone who requested all soy.....

I was worrying about sending out a bunch of samples then not getting much feedback..... I was thinking of sending one whole clamshell then two other fragrances with just two cubes. That way they can still see the packaging but its not as much product to lose. I have a list go folks to send them to.

That's a great idea too!

Thanks Karen! I will put something together to send to the testers. I do think getting feedback on packaging and CT would be good as well.
