Hello everyone it has been awhile since I have posted. I am looking for a replacement of the scent Beaches that Just Scent used to carry. It seems that it did not carry over with the WSP merger. I have searched high and low for a replacement including AFI and Lebermuth. I do not have anymore oil to have it duped either. Here is the description:

A fabulous blend of sea salt, coconut water, lavender, ocean sea spray, driftwood, beach moss and amber.

Thank you,

Hello everyone,

I am wondering if anyone knows of a replacement for Hummingbird from Natures Garden. It has been off of their site since last Summer and I am down to my last drop. I emailed them last Summer and they responded it was just out of stock but has not been added back to the site. I am wondering if they took it off because it was similar to something offered on another of their sites? I did email them but never heard back.

Thanks,

Good morning everyone,

I just went to reorder some Poinsettia and Pine from Candlewic and it is no longer on their site. Does anyone know of someplace else that carries it. I   had a large supply of it and it is just about gone.

Thanks,

I know this is a bit late but Fillmore has a great new Dark Cocoa and Rose.

Hello everyone, I do hope that everyone had a happy and healthy holiday. I am at the end of my original cases of Ecosoya Pillar Blend. I only used it for custom embeds I would make so it has lasted forever. My question is the newer reformulated version just as good or does anyone have a recommendation for something different. This is for Embeds and Molded tarts, not pillars. 

Thanks,

Hello everyone I am looking for another place that may have the 17oz jars that Candles and Supplies sells: https://www.candlesandsupplies.com/17-oz.-Oversized-2-Wick-Tumbler-per-case-24

I have looked all over so I figured I would come here to the experts. If not does anyone have a reliable hook up on Alibaba that I could start researching for these jars? I am so sick of everything being out of stock and hate telling my wholesale customers I cannot fulfill their orders. 

I am also grumpy as three of us in the house got Covid for Christmas.

@SRez I always forget about them. Without shipping the price would be about the same as Fillmore. I have been to their place before to pick up wax in a pinch.

So I am on the hunt for some 16 oz Square mason jars. My usual places are out of stock but Fillmore has a similar jar but the picture makes it look like it has a green hue to it. Has anyone ordered it and if so is it really noticeable? 

Thanks, Karen in MA

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a scent description for Star Dust from Just Scents. I bought it in Jan and never copied the description. Now with them bought out it is no longer on the site. 

Thanks,

Hello all you creative people. I am looking for some name suggestions for Oud Luxe, here is the scent description: truly a luxurious and sumptuous fragrance. It offers sweet nuances of jasmine, ylang yland, and herbals resting on a rich woody base of precious oud, vanilla, and leather. I am stumped on something to call it and Oud Luxe just not cut it for me.

Thanks,

@TallTayl I bought about 2500 wicks in December when i heard they may be in short supply so I am good on that. It seems like daily I am talking about the nationwide glass shortage. I had one customer after I explained about the jars and lids ask me when I would have them in stock I wanted to say did you not hear a thing I said?

Hello everyone,

I have to say I was a bit shocked yesterday when looking to reorder some jars. I love Fillmore and order jars, wicks and fragrances from them. I was looking at getting some 16 oz square mason jars and the price had more than doubled, 82.5% to be exact from when I ordered in Jan of 2020. I completely understand the supply issues and pandemic and all but that just seems so extreme. What other huge pricing issues have you all run into lately, I am curious now.

Hello everyone,

I have a new toy coming soon and it has nothing to do with candles or soaps, a 40W laser. I have always wanted one and need a few more deductions for my taxes this year so I took the plunge. Does anyone else have one and how have they incorporated it into their business. 

Thanks,

Hello everyone,

I am on the hunt for some 16 oz Mayo jars. I have tried all my usual places plus a few more. I got the last case at the Jar Store. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Karen in MA

Check out jar pricing. That has also gone up on th very hard to find Mason jars.

Oh my I was looking to try and order some more jars last night while ordering fragrance, saving on some shipping. I was comparing The Flaming Candle prices to Fillmore and was shocked. The price of the 16 oz mason on Fillmores site has doubled since last Spring. I understand that there is a shortage but I was a bit shocked as they have always been my go to for jars and lids. They are out of stock but are listed at 10.95 a case, I paid 5.93 a case in April.

I went ahead and placed an order with them too and got some of their autumn leaves to see if it's the same as CW's to have a back up!

I received my order yesterday. It is similar but just not as good as the Candlewic one. I got a few others to try like Pistachio Macaroon, Stropwaffel, Apple Butter Carmel and Their signature scent plus a few more. Will put them all in wax this weekend.

Karen. it looks like Southern Scentsations has one called autumn leaves and the description sounds similar to the one from CW. I've never used that one from them but I have used some of their oils in the past and liked what I got from them. Maybe you could get a sample and see if it's the same.

So I ordered some of their Autumn leaves to try along with a whole bunch of other scents that I do not need. I will let you all know if it is the same. This particular scent is so good and it is not like any of the other Autumn Leaves fragrances I have found. It is very much like the fresh pine sap you get on your fingers when cutting your own tree.

I love that scent too. Do you only sell it during the Fall? To me it has a Christmas smell to it too but I wouldn't know what to call it.

Isn't there another supplier that sells that one? I was thinking I saw it at one of the other sites. Let me  look and see.

I call it Rustic Pine in the Winter. It is probably my best seller from Sept to Dec.

Karen in MA

I ordered over the weekend when it came back in stock, two pounds. I received an email yesterday they were not able to fill my order as it was out of stock even though the web site had it available. I am unsure how much longer this wholesale customer will wait, ugh.

I actually ordered a pallet from Fillmore recently (sorry). But, how many cases do you need? I'd be happy to send you some.

Thank you for the offer. I now currently have 27 cases as I ordered from Candles and Supplies then Fillmore got more in so I figured I might as well while I ca.

Good morning,

I am wondering if anyone knows of an exact match to Candlewic Autumn leaves? They are out of stock and I need a few pounds of it. It is my number one seller by far at this time of the year and I have already gone through 5 pounds of this so far this season. Here is the description: Warm, earthy patchouli is combined with wood notes, sweet dried fruits, grated spices of clove and cinnamon, and light top notes of mandarin and berry to create this luscious autumn aroma.

I have done a couple of searches but have not found it yet. This is so yummy, to me it smells just like tree sap after you have cut a tree. 

Thanks,

Hello everyone,

I just went to reorder some jars from Candles & Supplies and the Bees Knees jars are no longer listed. I have already emailed them about them but in the meantime I figured I would ask here. Does anyone know of another supplier for the Bees Knes jars?

Thanks,

I am in love with Millcreek’s Fireside Musk.   

Fireside Musk 203 
Curl up by the fire with this blend of warm sandalwood, patchouli, vanilla and light musk that form the base for mid notes of violet and, jasmine and mingle with light citrus top notes.

Also, Oak Barrel Cider from RE is a great Fall scent.   Very warm and cozy.  
 

I wonder if this is lik the Fireside that Indiana Candle used to have. Sh no longer carries it and it was devine.
