Enablers, lol. As if I need another FO.

I'm going to try and cut down the Fragrances AGAIN, lol. Only making Container Candles in certain scents, my container candles don't sell well at all. Trying out different packaging for my Melts. Adding my sons M&P soap to my Shop. Will be adding Lotion in the Fall (maybe it's still up in the air)

Hmmmm, both of you give very good reasons for both. I think I'll just wait till we build the new house, hopefully I'll have to scrapbook. I did notice how expensive it could get, I made up a list from this one site of all the things I wanted and it came out to over $500. I don't know if I could afford another expensive hobby, lol.

That sucks, I'm always worried about my pictures because I take them myself. Not that their the best but I've seen worse. I hope you get everything situated and resolved quickly.

Which one is easiest, I'm thinking Digital would be but then what do you do with the digital? Save it on a disk or print them out?? OR Is it more fun doing it by hand?? I have tons of pictures and their just sitting around looking blah in boxes. My oldest is in a lot of stuff so it would be easy to dazzle some pages up for him. Just wondering

LOL, Vicky you crack me up. Maybe I'll just have a make up your own Sale and offer a few things and have them pick. But that might be to confusing.

Thanks maybe I'll do that. Your right every little bit helps.

I 2nd this scent. It's really nice.

I was thinking about having a sale of some sort on Monday but not sure what kind. So what kind of sales have you noticed that have been doing good??? Free Shipping? Buy One Get One 1/2 off? Buy 2 Get Something Free? I always add a Free Sample or 2 to every order so that wouldn't do any good. My customers expect Samples from me.

Those are really pretty.

Pineapple Jasmine smells incredible

I loved her Ed Hardy Dupe and so did my neices who love wearing everything Ed Hardy but it was weak in my soy wax (415).

I always thought it was layering different scents together, have you ever tried C&S it's ok. Maybe that's the different I'm looking for you guys always come up with something to make me want to make more stuff. I think I was in a rut and looking for a way to get going again.

Now that's different, might have to try it.

I have sage and citrus not from C&S but yes it is a nice scent. Tried all those from NG, the bermuda triangle is da bomb definitly different. Maybe I should just try to mix my own scents again, I'm definitly an FO HO so I'm sure I could come up with something different.

mmm, now I bet that smells different and good. How about Daystar scents like the Lush ones or whatever. Sorry it's just been that kind of day today don't know what I want but I want something.

Seriously, I don't know what I'm looking for. It can be fruity, I guess floral/fruity, food, whatever I guess just something different.

I know I don't want a straight up floral already have enough of those. I want to try something different other than what I usually go for like food scents unless it's a truely amazing scent. Anybody have any good ideas or new scents that would fit in the different catergory?

I don't even know how to sew well, lol. But my son does know how to sew a button on because of boy scouts. I love Joannes but like you ours is 45 min or more away same as Michaels. I wish I could say something to her but If I do they'll take it out on my son. He's not allowed to tell me anything that goes on over there but their allowed to know everything that goes on at my house. He is so particular about his soap, he has 4 scents in his line so far but he's not quite happy with the soaps yet, lol. They don't bubble enough (lather) for him. So we looked up some recipes and we're going to try them out next week. I have to order more soap.

Well he was really getting into it till his dads wife told him that soap making is for girls. So now he's keeping it on the DL so they don't find out. So of course I got on Etsy and showed him very pretty soaps that a man makes to build up his self esteem again and it seems to be doing well. He has gone through 6 lbs of M&P soap in almost 2 weeks. I can't wait till I get paid this Friday to order more. He's starting to get more and more creative and like his mom, he see's everything as a mold. He even has testers, lol. This is a great bonding experience just something for him and I to do together without his little brother.

We usually do a Craft of some sort each night, so I thought I would spice it up and let him make some soap for himself Monday night. He made Green Watermelon soap Monday, Tuesday he made Yellow Bubblegum, and Tonight he made Orange Banana Soap. He is so bummed right now because I ran out and I can't order anymore till Friday. He wants to start his own Soap Business. He already made a list for me of scents he wants to offer. I think since we're out of soap, we might make some bath salts tomorrow.

NG's Fresh Pear

Lemon Biscotti is a nice bakery scent Pearberry is very strong Wedding Cake is nice to I also use her Butterscotch it's not from the regular line but then again I only have 1 customer that orders it

As of right now mine are 2 oz. Melts, I sell them individualy and package them with a 3X4 bag with a label. But I'm looking for something different for 2009

I sold alot of Melts and Warmers had alot of requests for things that I don't make. So I have alot of testing to do for the new year it's things I always wanted to make but didn't think would sell.
