I love to soap. Candles have become a drag for me. Eventually I will be phasing them out. When the wax is gone, it's gone. Biz here is RI has been very slow this holiday season. I am doing very well with private orders but the reatailers a afraid to stock. Last Year I poured everyday for about 12 hours from end of Sept. to First week of December. I remember so well, when I poured my last case, Amish Harvest, I couldn't smell a thing, I was covered from head to toe in wax, scent, color, I peeled my clothes off took a shower and jumped into the hot tub and balled my eyes out I was so exhausted. Not a good memory LOL
