look just like a bag of marshmellows! lol very cute name!

Oh my goodness! Those are too great!! You guys always make me want to go back to candles!

-Ash

Anyone have any ideas that would be cost effective?

Also if anyone wants to shoot me some prices for approx 75 of them that would be helpful! I'm helping some friends throw a shower for one of our friends and right now I've backed off of making candles, I still could I guess but if anyone can make a good offer I'd rather just buy them off of one of you than do it myself!

Thanks

Ashleigh

Just had to chime in here about the pill capule idea.... IMO I don't think that would be a good idea just because kids might get the wrong idea about REAL meds and try to get their hands on the real thing...

Just a thought!

Ashleigh

Love them both!

The packaging on the second it too cute!

Put "It's a girl" on that and it would be perfect for a baby shower or new baby basket!!

Great Job!

I rename every since one of mine even if it is just simply like changing Jamiaca Me Crazy to Jamiaca Craze or something really different like Drakkar to Midnight Madness...

Ash

I call mine Sweet Dreams since it is suppost to be relaxing...

Ashleigh

I know just exactly how you feel! Cinnamon Bun is one that will get me every single time! Wear a mask.. it does help.

Ash

You'll also want to add some for the gas and time for delivering them...

Ash

I call mine Waffle Melts

Ash

I'm not really sure how to do that either.. but for myself i have a file in excel that lists each fo (my name for it) then next to that the real name- who i get it from-how much much (oz) I have on what date then also keep track of what and how much I reorder...

Doesn't really help with taxes but I figured it would make it easier when I have to transfer that info somewhere else for taxes..

Would you mind sharing the link to the IRS info?

Thanks

Ash

I also charge $2 for mine.... pretty simple packaging too, I'll attach a picture.

Ash

Oh BTW this one has glitter on it but none others that I offer do..

So how would I go about turning that in??

And if I dont collect the taxes myself I dont have to turn that in to the dept of rev. but I can still turn it in as sales on my end of the yr taxes correct??

Lord! lol I never guessed the taxes would be the hardest part of this business!

thanks for all the help guys!

ashleigh

Okay I know that title work! lol Couldnt figure out how to word it!

Anyway! I got my b&b and candles in a store (started on Dec 2nd)

Well now thinking about taxes... I dont know how that works!

She collects taxes on my products-Does she need to give that to me to turn in or how do I claim that???

It is not a wholesale account- I just stock what ever into it she keeps 10%.

Anyone have info on this? Or know how this works?

Thanks!

Ash

Get some of those under the bed containers... I just bought some from big lots for $3 a piece... we use them for EVERYTHING lol stuffed with toys, clothes, candle supplies....

BTW The ones I bought where actually for wrapping paper... still work though

Ash

Yeah, that is what I'm thinking of doing at first as I learn more... Really thinking I'd like to do a whole line in it since I know there are many out there just like these little guys. Athought it is probably way down the road, but its a thought. I've just got to do some looking to make sure being AROUND or having it in the air or what ever wont effect them.

Thanks for the links-checking them out now.

Ash

Do anyone have any experiance with this?

We just found out two of our three boys can not have casein (milk products) OR (yeah get this) SOY so that leaves us with Goats Milk.

How hard is this going to be to change over ALL my products to casein and gluten free?

Or would it be better to make ANOTHER line that meets these needs?

I love to use milk bath and such in the kids bath but well powdered milk is a no no and i was also told gluten is in baking powder?

If any can help that would be great! lol My brain is being taken over on just changing the diets, its going to be spinning with the b&b products!!

Thanks

Ash

It might help if you look up whipped body butters... they are much thicker and are used more in the containers (too thick for tubes)

HTH

Ash

not quite what your looking for but maybe close... http://aromaxpress.com/adult-fun-aromas.htm

Ash

I use bitter creek...

I would get a hold of someone and draw up a contract!

If they KNOW 100% they would get all their orders in full because they have you on a contract and enough sweet talking and easing fears were done... I bet you could get them to do it!!

Good luck!!

Ash

There we go we can just make another line to go along with our "normal" candles and call it MAX and see if it sells better than the "normal" lol heck up the price buy a few $$'s too

Ash

Could also be dye! lol had that happen to me with liquid dyes the first time I tried to get a really DARK color!

Ashleigh

huh cheap enough i might just have to buy a couple of samples on payday to just see.

Ashleigh

looks great! thats something I still havent gotten the hang of!
