    Yeah, I thought she meant Candles and Supplies at first but I know they don't carry them. Maybe there is a local craft store named C&S?

    What is C&S? I thought they weren't marketed to the public yet. I looked at the bottom of the Wood Wick candle I have and it is in a tab. It looks like a special tab that the wicks clips into.

    Orange blossom is supposed to bring good luck

    I must admit your taste is very versatile. Looking at the work you have posted, you range from pretty and intriquite to quite bizarre It's quite unusual to have a variety as such. With all your different styles, I am sure you have something for just about everyone I bet you enjoy a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as much as escargot

    So, you will be in MY neck of the woods I'd really LOVE to meet you but I have to run the kids back and forth to work everyday. I only live 45 minutes north-west of Charlotte. Let me know next time you get up here Luci. Maybe we could meet for lunch? The only thing I have ever purchased from them were a few fragrance oils a long time ago. They all threw well in my candles. I since discovered Candle Science and haven't ordered from Carolina in a long long time.

    I bought an Old Virginia Wood Wick Candle and the soot is awful! The scent throw was great though

    I put shea butter and raw honey in my mp soap base. It isn't drying at all. Very moisturizing, in fact.

    Those are way nice. I would def buy one :smiley2:

    Well, when I make any items that call for water I use distilled bottled and will continue to do so. Heck, I don't even drink some tap water so I sure would not put it in any products I make to sell to the public

    My son stayed with us for six months and after he left his room stunk to high heaven of smoke. I had to use lemongrass essential oil mixed with baking soda on the carpet several times (then vacuum it) , washed down the woodwork with bleach water and spray Febreeze once a day for a couple weeks. Smells fine now

    I used to make them a long long time ago and some I had on the shelf for months never molded. I used plastic inserts under the lids. Make sure you use distilled bottled water, not tap.

    Wow! Great set-up and lotsa inventory! I am green with jealousy here

    Nice colors! Look at all the Christmas spending money you'll make When I wholesaled my candles to gift shoppes I spent many "all-nighters". Have a peaceful and restful day. You deserve it!

    I love the name Pink Peppercorn I think a pillar made in this scent marbled with pink and cream, surrounded with real botanical Pink Pepperberry tips would look fantastic! I would love to have one displayed in my home :smiley2:

    I made this gift basket by request using real eucalyptus scattered throughout the basket. Buyer was very pleased and said it looked very upscale. Eucalyptus has a very nice herbal aroma that would go nicely with natural soaps, etc.

    Very nice candles! They would be perfect for Valentine's Day
  21. Vanmala
    Your display looks wonderful! Congrats on the super sales

    I found straight palm wax is a royal pita! I used to use it but experimented over and over again. I ended up using a mix of palm, soy and paraffin that worked well and still gave me the "feathered appearance". Sorry, can't remember the exact proportions since I quit making that blend quite awhile ago. Just wanted to let you know that it takes a lot of time and patience to muster this task for a good appearance, throw and burn.

    ICS does also

    I buy all my boxes online at U-Line and they have them as small as 4X4X4 They always have them to me within 3 days too

    Out of curiousity I bought one of the Wood Wick candles at Cracker Barrel last year. It's almost half burned now and the whole jar is black from soot. I wasn't real impressed with the crackling sound but the scent throw is super Sorry, no help on you finding the wicks but wanted to share my experience.
