  1. I really like Peaks Bayberry, but I have not tried the others!
  2. I just got some from Candlesource and it smells very good. That was my first time smelling it and I was pleasantly surprised!
  3. Good for you! I am glad to see that your efforts have been rewarded. Sounds like you had a good time and made a good impression:yay:
  4. Wow, I think those are beautiful candles. The color is striking and I can't see anything wrong with them. Good Job:yay:
  5. Can't wait to hear what you think about it! Please post your results. I am really on the fence. I hate changing up my container wax, but Peak was my supplier for all my waxes. I am currently playing with one of the pillar waxes. Love making them, hate wicking them.....where is the "I hate wicking club" gone.
  6. WOW! Those are fabulous :highfive:. I think they are super professional. I would love to get into Fairbanks and hit one of your shows. Did I tell you that I looked for you at the Fairbanks Fair in August? I didn't find you tho, wasn't even sure if you were there. Wanted to PM you, but wasn't near a computer that I could get on very easily. That is the first time that a visit to town coincided with the fair. Man it was so hot, I thought I would die.
  7. HOLLY!!! LOL... okay got to re-smell my scented bean Sage and Citrus! Sorry that you have been going through the misfortunes..darnit! It seemed like you were gone from the board for a long time. I am glad you been back now (I know you have been back for awhile) and I hope things are looking up : ) Looking forward to your email when you have time
  8. OKay I have to put my two or ten scents in too...LOL: Cranberry Sauce Cinnamon Cider Country Kitchen Brown Sugar and Chestnuts HCO - Hyancith Chula Orchard Harvest I am testing the Ultimate Vanilla and so far I like it better than any vanilla I have tried. I am also trying the Berry Balsam. Becky is very generous with her samples and has awesome customer service. I think the Carribean Holiday smells just like Peak's grape cabernet. Anybody else think so.
  9. Well, I have been searching for almost two years and haven't found one that I like including the Scented Bean. I am playing with my own version which I am starting to like. I don't have it quite down, but Yankees Sage and Citrus has something in it that others don't. I am thinking it is Sandalwood. Anyway, every nose is different, but that is my all time most favorite scent. I have found a great dupe of Sunwashed Linen at the candlesource.
  10. Have you tried Peak's Asian Sandalwood. That is a very nice scent. Candle Cacoon's Sunwarmed Sandalwood smells extremely if not exactly the same. So depending on which supplier you do business with you could get a sample and smell it. Really very rich a different. Kicks behind in parrafin.
  11. I have experimented with stamping on the blanks. I actually Scented them first and then stamped. It actually works okay as long as they are really dry. I don't use the DPG and I don't think you need too. I think you can easily get 4 weeks out of one and longer if you really scent them. I am trying to figure our how early you can make them and package them before selling. I am testing a few now. I think you probably could paint them and then scent them without any trouble.
  12. I had trouble with that also throwing in both J223, 1945, OK 6228, . But I seem to have trouble with most of any of those type of scents. I have also noticed a that I can't get the throw I want with CC winter woodland whispers (I never get that name right) in 1945. I am not sure what to do, but I already played with the dosage and that didn't seem to help. Good luck
  13. This scent is from JustScents FO line. It is a very nice one that is true and your pillar is beautiful : )
  14. I have only tried one of her scents, but I thought it was a very good dupe after smelling the real thing. It was passionate kisses, vs type and recommended by somone on this board : )
  15. I poured it in 4794 and I really thought the scent was nice. It wasn't blow your mind strong, but it was good. My tester thought it was great. I think this is nice for those that want a fall scent that is not quite so strong. I figured in my containers' I would add a bit more FO and see what I thought of it.
  16. Oh Becky please screw up my next order...please.....please...LOL!
  17. Thanks Diamond for the information. I feel out of sorts because I am going to have to switch waxes or switch wax providers for my container wax. I am okay with trying something new with the pillar wax tho since this will be my first go at it
  18. Went to the Peak's site and most of their new wax is "SOLD OUT"! Wow, I was going to try the lmp pillar wax, but it has been out for the week. I was wondering tho, does anybody know the FO retention capibilities of this wax, 3%, 6%? I don't see a lot of information about the wax on the site. Diamond how is it going with the waxes?
  19. YES!!! Now how absolutely cool is that. Just remember girls and boys we knew her when.....LOL. I am glad to see that is has been updated to the 4 out of 5. Very great advertising and as always I am impressed by the professionalism of your packaging. I had to laugh because they were actually reading your label and your directions. Now I just hope that lady that you wanted to carry your products realizes what kind of product you have. WTG!!!
  20. Goodness those look so real. What a neat package for tarts. Great idea!! Being a pack rat does pay off sometimes : )
  21. Nice set up - great job even if sales were down, sounds like you still did well : )
  22. The plumeria is very nice. I am not a fan of the strawberries and cream either. Just didnt' sit right with me either.
  23. Looks reallly good! I like the look of your wax!
  24. Would have to second, third or whatever...LOL Peaks Black Canyon. I love that scent. Is one of my all time favorites. I also really like Cool Water. I am not sure if any of the suppliers (I know Peak's and JS doesnt' have it) that you listed have it, but if they do, it is a wonderful scent. I get mine from Wixnwax....oops now you are might have to try a different supplier....I am the evil FO HO!
  25. Oh Sara thanks so much. I still get confused sometimes and find myself guessing at which supplier it could be.
