  1. I absolutely LOVE JS strawberry jam!! It is super strong and has very good scent throw in J50 I don't know what kind of wax you use but I highly recomend this one
  2. I have the chart but it suggests 9 different sizes for 2-3" container. Was just wondering if anyone uses them and has suggestions so I don't have to test them all.
  3. Hi everyone, I just received a whole box of samples from Wick It and I can't dedide where to begin. I make container candles 2.5" diameter. I use J50 and usually scent heavier than 1oz per pound. I have been using 51-32-18z or 44-24-18z I find that 51z soots and mushrooms too much but has a great melt pool. The 44z has much less soot and mushrooming but the melt pool is minimal and leaves wax hang up on the sides of the jar. OK now you know my life story, my question is which size Premeir 700 would you start with to try and go between those two zinc wicks? Thanks for any and all input :highfive:
  4. Hi everyone. Just trying to get some opinions. Is Peak or JS better when it comes to Mulberry? What are the differences? Thanks
  5. Thanks everyone! I was thinking of burgandy
  6. Hi everyone. I have a customer asking for a Mulberry scented candle. I have to order this oil and want to make sure that the color is right. What color do you use? Peaks says red, green or black. I'm not sure. Is Peak or JS better? Thanks, Trisha
  7. I have never heard of this site before. Have you had any luck selling on there? Looks like it is a European site.
  8. Ebay is tough! I don't know how and where these people are getting their products and selling so cheap:undecided I have searched online wholesale companies and just found a bunch of frauds! That is why is just wanted to sell my candles, but it seems Yankmee are the only ones selling. (they suck) I guess I just have to keep researching Thanks
  9. Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone is having any success selling container candles on Ebay? Just want to know about any experiences before I try :tiptoe: Darn sure don't want to waste my money on the listing fees!
  10. Glad to know I'm not going crazy:p You will NOT catch me wasting wax on this one! Now that I smelled it again it does remind me of nasty butt. JS should discontinue Sunshine, or at least warn of the disgustingness
  11. Has anyone smelled this FO? I ordered a full pound just based on the desrcription and I am soooo disapointed. It actually smells like dirt to me. I don't think I'm crazy, but it really smells BAD. Maybe I got a bad batch or something? Let me know what ya'll think
  12. Hi everyone. I heard about these wicks a while back here. I was wondering if anyone has tested in J50 2-3 in diameter containers or anything close? I requested a sample about 3 weeks ago and have not heard anything. Also anything on the superior 600 series?? TIA Trisha Feel free to PM me if ya want
  13. Hey ya'll. I'm lookin for a real true basil scent. Not mixed with any other scent. Can anyone out there give some suggestions? Also, has anyone had luck selling a candle that scent? TIA
  14. I use the exact same wax and wick combo in 8oz jelly jars. There is always mushrooming with the first burn. Other fo's burn a little better with only one trim and then they never mushroom again? I can't figure it out so I just deal with it because so far this has been the best combo for me:rolleyes2 I have read that all wicks will either mushroom or smoke so just use what works best or makes you happy so you don't spend a fortune like I did
  15. I love JS Vanilla Bean. I think it is the most pure vanilla scent I've ever smelled. The hot and cold throw is awsome in J50
