    Stella, I think it's in those tin paint cans...but maybe I'm wrong. I was wondering are the pictures in time line order because 1 & 4 look like the same photo as does 2 & 3 (going from left to right) or is this 4 different times and they just look that similar....or do I need another visit to the opthomologist?

    I poured the Edward and Bella from MMS and OMG...they are both very soft, sexy and woodsy. Great throw in my 5050. I hope Jacob's doesn't smell like wet dog!!!!! Bella's is a little different from Edward's...can't tell if it's sweeter or more floral ....my sinuses are a little congested today because of the damn tropical storms in the gulf but I'll see if my DIL can pick out the difference.

    JS...Sweet orange & pomegrante is awesome. I know she has more but can't think of them off the top of my head. I've never had a fuel smell with any of her citrus....orange or lime. Oh, Mimosa & mandarin. She also has an orange chiffon cake.

    It's ultra delish! Great throw in 5050.

    Another precaution.....print this out. Shows proof of your intentions. We can only do so much but since he offered the info of the COPD it's your duty to inform your customer, which you've done. If he still chooses to purchase it's on him. If you don't sell to him someone else will.

    I would suggest he contact her Dr. If he insists than I would suggest anything but florals. I've been told by a Dr. that floral scents are the absolute worst for allergies or asthma etc. Now beeswax you don't need to scent. The honey scent is very light.

    Just to answer your question Lonestar is very dependable. I've got quite a few of their oils. But I do agree to find a place closer to your area. There might be a small one that's not too well known on this board and you could be saving tons of money on shipping. I was looking over that list (thanks for the link) and isn't it amazing how many are in OHIO....Does anyone know why?

    Yesterday I made a couple of lampe berger fuel oils and was burning them and a couple of new scents. Something has had me sneezing since yesterday. I know of people who have scarred their lungs for not using a mask while using strong scents like cinnamons. I had a bad experience with some black cherry that I was stupid enough to put my nose directly over right after pouring. Now the same mask I use while mixing lye for soap I use for candlemaking. My sense of smell is my livlihood...why would I want to damage it.

    I've had great luck with Taylored Concepts duping a scent from me sending them a candle.

    Most definately it affects your health. When my grandson was going thru allergies first question Dr. asked was "do you burn candles" my DIL said...burn them...my MIL makes them. Dr. said to be very careful with floral scents especially. My husband can tell with one sniff if I'm burning something with cinnamon or clove...his nose goes berserk.

    The problem I had when I used IGI 4794 was sometimes the bottoms would kinda break off and not be flat. Like the wax adheared to the pin too much. Since I've changed to 5050 nothing like that happens. I can't say the bottoms were actually crunchy but I know how some things are kinda hard to explain.

    I've made : Frosted pumpkin Pumpkin Bread Pumpkin Cheesecake Pumpkin Patchouli Pumpkin Harvest Cake And love them all. I'm not much on coffee scents so I steer away from those just on a personal level. All of the bakery scents are super throwers with great out of the oven scents. Multi layered and complex. Pumpkin patch is great for those who don't love patch. The pumpkin sweetens it up and it also throws great. Frosted pumpkin is probably my fav. Great dupe! Great throw.

    I also like Nana's Flannel since I'm a Nana....but I don't wear flannel. Fruity Linen Clothesline in the Orchard Smucker's Sheets (man that's hard to say)

    CPHP soap is my therapy. And I'm in desperate need of some therapy. Great swirls as usual.
  18. NewOrleansLady
    If you had a touch of yellow it would be a perfect Mardi Gras soap!!!!! Absolutely beautiful as usual!

    I know what you mean....hit & miss..but I have found a few good ones.
  20. NewOrleansLady
    Taylored Concepts has a number of them but I've never ordered them myself.

    During the height of my votive selling days I would put a typed instruction sheet in the box and the small sticker instruction on the bottom of each votive. The votives were put upside down in the box so they were visible. The instructions emphasized what Stella said, to baby sit it once it was 3/4 of the way burnt, to straighten and trim the wick after extinguishing. I also sold votive holders that fit the candles best and candle quenchers to extinguish it properly. The instructions are basically the same things I tell my container customers.

    I use olive oil in my oil warmer oils (if that's the same thing as simmering oils). I use it 70% fo 30% oo. Been using it like this for years and no problems or complaints.
  23. NewOrleansLady
    I had a feeling the oils were discontinued ones the mfg.was getting rid of...that's the only way he could sell them for those prices. A leopard doesn't change his spots and Dan is the same as he always was. This one will shut down faster than Cape Coral! He must think chandlers are really stupid to not see thru his ways. Hay....where's Sassy Q about all this!
  24. NewOrleansLady
    Hate to say "I told you so!!!" I figured he was gonna pull the ole bait and switch....either with his prices or the oils! I tried to warn y'all but I was blasted for what I said.

    I love WillowWoods Vanilla Sandlewood and JS Patchouli Embers.
