  1. It is Just Scent. Not very strong but good for mixing. It smells really good. I find all vanilla bland but lot of people love them. Yes get the Blueberry Muffins lol I have it and it is strong and amazing. Never had the Butter Rum Allspice but sounds good. I love spices.I have the Spiced Cranberry too and it is great but the Blueberry is out of this world.
  2. I wouldn't make any money if I had to pay 15%. I make melts I don't make candles. eBay is cheaper than that. Is it worth it? What is the advantage of selling on homemade Amazon instead of regular Amazon? Also they won't let me choose how much I charge for shipping either. They set the price and I wanted to offer free shipping.
  3. I love Peak and have a lot of their oils from destashes. They are out of a ton of stuff on their site all the time though. Their Spruce Christmas Tree is awesome. I don't usually like that kind lol
  4. I'm not impressed with Wellington oils. I buy a lot of destashes and never got even one from there. I bought some recently because I was looking for one called Bright Crystal type and search showed only they had it. A lady said it is her favorite perfume. Very weak even at the strongest concentration. She said it was a milder scent when I told her I hardly smell it. She can't smell it hardly either. Can barely smell it and I made with 4627 so I know it's a dud because that wax usually makes everything great lol it has been 3 weeks and still not good. A little better but OOB it is weak. Very disappointed. To make it worth ordering I bought a few more lol well it still wasn't worth ordering. I bought Spruce Christmas Tree. Not awful but not amazing. I have Peaks and it is awesome. This one is sad in comparison. Pumpkin Crunch Cake smells good but not intense like reviews said. I am going to have to blend these oils and I refuse to sell like this. These are at maximum concentration. I can't imagine any weaker. I'm very upset about this. I have a few more I had bought like Axe type Dark Temptations. Smells good but weak. Never again. I am used to quality. This is not.
  5. I don't have WSP Expresso but wish I did since you say it's great. I mix 60 coffee with 35 creme brulee. They are both strong. Then add 5 percent french vanilla for the "cream" effect lol
  6. That is a great idea. I just don't have a melter. I use prestos. I wish I had a melter.
  7. I tried Amazon but the fees are huge. Automatically charge .99 per listing fee even on a few dollar item. Plus the other fees and then PayPal takes theirs. Is homemade Amazon cheaper? I was using regular Amazon.
  8. I hate those kind of scents. I seem to tend to put off making things I hate lol like Baby Powder yuck but people lol it.
  9. I buy a ton of destashes and don't have any from that company. I'm thinking nobody likes it? I have around 2,000 oils and not even one came from there.
  10. I think 4627 is the Cadillac of all waxes lol that's why I'm making them now in burner cups. I like 4630 and 4625 but not nearly as much. The 4627 is so pretty and can be used in any brand wax warmer.
  11. I make my kids and others test some of them. I hate Patchouli and can't test it. It makes me sick. I had a big bottles of Thoroughbred and threw it away. It was awful. Smelled like we horses that stunk like crazy. I could not even sell it. I refuse to sell something that gross. Another one I hate is anything named Dragon yuck. My daughter's love it. I need a respirator so I can make Dragon Blood as they want it and a couple others do too. I don't want to smell it lol
  12. How do you decide if it is an oil you don't like? For instance, I hate Patchouli but other people love it. Would you get rid of it because you don't like it. Or keep it because others do? I hate making things I hate. Lol
  13. Thank you. I will check it out and tell my Mama. We do natural remedies but didn't know there was one for diabetes. This is great.
  14. I wouldn't like it either if I made all of that. That is great you reversed your diabetes. My mom has had it since she was 17 and she is 69. She has juvenile diabetes and she eats very healthy. She is 5 ft 6 and weighs 115. She needs to gain but she eats 3 huge meals a day. Lol
  15. I love the lemon pound cake.lol do you eat sweets? I do. Maybe that's why I love smelling them lol
  16. Yes it is Bitter Creek:) I have made melts with 464 with a tablespoon of coconut oil. I also tried it with just 464. I made it with 4627 by itself. This stuff is heavenly. I buy destashes a lot and had bought a lot of soy, 464,415,444, CB-135 and then beeswax.paraffin 4627, 4630. So I've been experimenting lol I love 4627 the best. It is the Cadillac of waxes, to me. The cold and hot throw is out of this world.Very messy but so worth it. I hate soy but some people love it. I love how easy it is to melt but hate long cures. Forcing myself to make it and cure it. After I run out I'm going to just 4627. I make melts but no candles.
  17. I have heard of that. That's why for local people I'm not doing many choices at once. Doing eBay too where lots of people will buy. Wont put all choices in same listing. Amazon is way too expensive I tried it. I don't like Pines, nature, flowers that much, and know some people love them lol so want to have everything. I make then sell so it will take awhile to have too many choices. Last week I made 850 wax melts. Then I bagged them this week. 34 different scents. I have people asking for almost 20 different scents lately. Now in person I would only do about 50. Candles by Victoria has over 1000 scents and she rakes in the money. I wish I had her website. It is gorgeous. Never tried her stuff.
  18. I love this one and don't usually care for this kind either lol I love fruits, cinnamons, bakery, mints. I hate nature ones and hate Patchouli the most. I call mine Afternoon Tea.
  19. I love Candle Science, Peak, Nature's Garden, RE, Brambleberry, WSP and more. I never tried VA Candle. It seems like I wouldn't like I but don't know why lol with all the destashes I have there is not ONE single bottle of it. So I guess nobody hardly likes it either.
  20. I don't know how to make one either. I will try to figure it out for you. I have a billion projects going at one time. I didn't know that was A.D.H.D. I've always been like that lol
  21. So blue Dawn will get liquid dye off of white vinyl floors? I have dye stains that I can't get rid of. I tried bleach, comet, shout, aqua net hair spray, magic eraser ( I hate those but people swear by it), orange cleaner, white vinegar and I had a maroon kitchen floor for 5 hours. I kept trying and got a lot off, most of it but then a few weeks ago I got green dye on it. I don't even work in my kitchen lol somehow it was on my shoes and I dragged it in. It was a nightmare. Still trying to get it off.
  22. Yes that is correct. I tried it though and it was awful. One lady won my prize and was too lazy to meet me to pick it up. I had sold her a purse before so she met me before. Another won and said she loves my melts. Can I get more she said? I told her she could buy some. She said she wants it free that she is broke. I gave up.
  23. My son in law built me a website. I have no idea how to do that lol he made one from scratch with coding and all that stuff. I have my own domain. It's not fancy and it isn't up to date either lol I have to add to it and make new pictures. It's a lot of work lol So you have a fragrance obsession just like everyone else on this forum lol it is unbelievable how hard it is to say I think I have enough. No you never will. I had a lady recently ask if O had 2 kinds she wanted and nope I sure didn't. But do now lol it's crazy.
  24. I'm sorry they did that. It is wrong. I don't want to copy anyone. I think it's something to be proud of being unique. They should be ashamed. I have an idea and I'm watching to see if I will be copied. They have a lot of catching up to do if so. I have around 2,000 different fragrance oils now and will keep buying. I find amazing deals. Having choices should help snuff out the wannabes. Unless they have a lot of cash or know how to get amazing deals like I do. You could get a trademark but it's very expensive but might be worth it.
