  1. tobacco caramel from flaming candle...I can smell the scent more immediately after I blow out the candle. The scent isn't as strong when it's burning I am using 8oz flint jar, cd 10 wick...8.5% it is difficult to mix with 464...could that be it...i add fo at 180 pls help
  2. do use those glass dividers or do you wrap the candles individually? if shipping multiple cases in a single box, what are you using for box padding/cushion?
  3. please warn us next before posting fragrance porn. 😝🤤
  4. Interesting! I'm learning so much, thank you all!
  5. Thank you Tall! I really appreciate your reply! can you please explain this part " required dollar volume per rolling 12 months " what is purpose of that? TIA
  6. Do you think retailers will be okay with that...or would it turn them off? I guess the way to find out is to try lol
  7. Regional Boxes from USPS are best for heavy candles..and most cost effective These: https://store.usps.com/store/product/shipping-supplies/priority-mail-regional-rate-box---a1-P_RRB_A1 https://store.usps.com/store/product/shipping-supplies/priority-mail-regional-rate-box---b1-P_RRB_B1
  8. A retail store is interested in carrying your candles. Do you ship/send the samples (tealights) for free or do you charge? So far I have been sending them for free. But some stores never end up ordering. I think I should charge and if the store orders wholesale, deduct that amount from wholesale. You think stores will go for that?
  9. the cutest the little fire hazards you ever did see
  10. Just looked through their sales, they actually haven't sold any candles...thank god because I was starting to feel like I was working too hard over here😮
  11. I don't like the false hopes he sells to newbies..."You can make 1000 bucks a month selling candles down at the market every weekend".....yeah sure after you spend $5000+ testing, retesting, retesting again, insurance, booth fees, booth equipment, supplies, candle making equipment, paying someone to help you sell down at the market...etc, etc... Plus I don't know how the guy makes a decent profit selling candles at 10 bucks with 11% fragrance oil I think his real business is selling a dream on Youtube...
  12. Everytime I see that on candles I think of the terms my little cousins taught me: boug-ghetto and boug-hick....fancy hick and ghetto people.
  13. also to save on hangtags you could print just one type and have the scents listed next to checkboxes, check off the scent of the candle instead of printing different tags for each scent
  14. When you say packaging you mean you plan to have individual boxes for the candles?
  15. I think an effective tag line should contain SEO keywords So the tag long would be a combination of keywords specific to your brand (ex: location, specialty, qualities, style, demographics) This all goes back to branding. On a piece of paper write down words that you think describe your brand Some keyword ideas.... Descriptive features: Luxury, handcrafted, handmade, elegant, country, minimalist, apothecary style, location: your state, city, southern, east coast, west cost, midwest Materials: hemp wick, soy, cotton wicks, coconut, apricot wax, Strong selling points: long lasting, 100% ______, strong scents, "triple scented" (whatever that means lol), paraffin-free, eco-friendly, custom fragrances, phthalates-free
  16. If a customer claims the package was stolen who's at fault?
  17. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was wondering how to offer Net terms!
  18. I hate eco wicks so much I threw them away maybe I should have kept them
  19. A soap would be nice! My bf would especially love that b/c he loves this scent. I use it currently in fragrance warmer. It's been years since I made melt and pour but I think i'll make a soap for his birthday gift! Thanks for the idea!
  20. I tried as a mixer the fragrance doesn't "translate" properly
  21. I want to write flaming and beg them to reformulate this fragrance. It drowns out everytime with every type of wick. The scent is sooo luxuiorus I love it.
