My tins do very well, in fact I'm in the process of making 60 for a client, that I met at the farmers market. 

I love Zazzle,Ive been using them for a while, especially for custom orders. 

Do you rename it for the rest of the year?

 

Trappeur

Believe it or not, no. People really love the smell, one sniff, its sold. LOL!

I love the Holly Berry that TheCandlemakers store sells. It smells so good I use it all year round!

Those are so lovely.

So pretty,great work.

That is awesome!

That is so beautiful!

Usually 5-7 days.

I took over a spare bedroom, I have shelves everywhere. FO's,jars, bottles, bins with tins,all organized.

Just last weekend a lady asked  " can you do 2 for $5.00?" On my 22 oz apothecary jars. ummmm...no!

On my labels, I put the name of my business (manufacturer), I also have the ingredients listed as well. On the bottom, I add  label the date the product was made.

Thank you for your suggestions, I have 2 eucalyptus scents that are not to my liking. I will try cajun.

I just received an email, 33% off shipping.

I organize by type, for example: bakery, floral, spicy, perfume/cologne dupes,& fruit.

I mixed a peach,mango, & cherry. It was awful,when my daughters came home from school they were like    .

HI *raises hand* my name is afewthingz, and I'm addicted to buying fo's.

I purchased a small bag from candle science, and believe or not, I do not see any directions. So, I worked it in like I would FO & dye ( if I use it).

At what temp do you add the UV inhibitor? I've tried to stir some in, and was left with, what looked like white flakes throughout the candle. 

Thank you

I wish I could cut back myself! I haven't gone "public" yet, just selling to women at work and banks etc. I really can't say how many I have but it's in the hundreds which is ridiculous! I keep thinking I'm going to blend some more and get some "unique" scents but haven't made it yet LOL! And the worst part is, I keep buying! I have oils from months ago that I haven't even tried yet. It's such an obsession!

I thought it was just me! I have hundreds in my craft room, I can't stop! lol!

I had a grape that smelled like grape bubblegum, yummy!

I have used toothpicks in the past

HI JI,

To me, they were not selling material at all, the soy turned a weird color, and of course the sight of the rust was just unattractive. However, I discovered that, the culprit were my 2oz. & 4oz. gold tins, which I had purchased from craigslist. The rusting happened within a week.

I've had this happen with all of the waxes I've tried. I think it has more to do with the FO, not sure though.

I agree, I've had the same thing happened as well, not all the time though. 

I've had that issue with the vanilla scents as well. However, no issues with any other scent, I use 464 btw.
