Tennessee candle, any must haves?


Belinda

Recommended Posts

I noticed that TCS has a new website and thought about ordering from them. Are there any must haves? I really don't need another supplier but have read good things about them.

I thought I read where this old house was good. Has anyone tried that one?

 

Thanks in advance!

Awesome news on the website! I didn't mind calling in my orders though, because Brent and Kimberlie are both wonderful and really seem to care about their customers and they have quality oils! Some great ones for cp soap are peach magnolia raspberry, True Lavender, Lovespell, Winter candy apple, butt naked(discolors brown, but all other suppliers versions I've soaped do as well) dried apple wreath-this has been discontinued, and I mentioned to them that many people love this fo, and please restock if possible.

I got some fall samples a while back to experiment with in wax..I'm a newbie, but liking spicy apples & peaches, spiced cranberry.

Someone called me from there today to let me know one of the samples I wanted was out of stock. He asked what I would like to replace it with and I told him to choose. He said "ok, I'll put in something good for you!". He seemed really nice. I'm glad they're back in business. I've read nothing but good things about them!

I am burning this old house right now and it's amazing

I always use 1.5 ounces per lb in soy and the 10 samples I have I used 1 ounce and so far impressed

I have the following poured waiting to test

-dried apple wreath

-cinnamon stick

-peach magnolia raspberry

-Georgia peach

--honeysuckle

I still have yet to pour:

-vanilla bean Noel

-mulberry

-true lavender

-vanilla

I just did an oops!  Apple strudel I listed above is from Indiana Candle Supplies....not Tennessee....

Trapp;

 

I know you are fond of vanilla. Vanilla Bean Noel from Tennessee Candle Supplies is my favorite vanilla for both candles and (M&P) soaps. I have a lot of vanilla fragrance oils from other suppliers on hand, but I was quite concerned that I was about out of VBN. I hope that they remain in business. They have been a bit hit and miss with going out of business and out-of-stocks the last few years.

After seeing this post, I decided I needed to place a small order.  I had used This Old House before, so that one was a no-brainer for a reorder.  I blindly ordered 2 lbs each of True Lavender and Peach Magnolia Raspberry solely based on your reviews here.  You guys have great taste!! ;)

 

For samples, I ordered:

 

Buttercream -- holy moly strong, but it's unlike any other buttercream I've ordered in the past.  It smells spicy like a sugar cookie sometimes does.  I need to put this one in wax.

 

Strawberry Cheesecake -- don't detect cheesecake OOB but it smells good.  In da wax you go!

 

Vanilla Bean Noel -- smells good, but the one from JS is stronger and better.

 

Cinnamon Broom -- yes!!  The one from FB is very weak.  This one OOB is just yes!!

 

Lemon Chiffon Pie -- smells really good, but I worry throw may be an issue with this one....lighter than most lemon bakery scents I've used.

 

Apple Cinnamon -- amazeballs!
