  1. How about: Black Cherry, Strawberry, Coconut, Caramel & Vanilla?
  2. I've gained quite a bit of ideas & help from here!!! Also, obtained quite a few friends too!!! Hope you all are able to celebrate & HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!โค๏ธ
  3. www.youroiltools.com has a pre- Black Friday sale of up to 80%. This is where I got my tins recently for my Solid Perfumes!!!
  4. Yeah, I looked into them a little more & seemed a bit expensive for my liking. Finally found some tins I liked at this place called: Your Oil Tools. Or, www.YourOilTools.com. Their tins didn't end up being terribly expensive & I plan on ordering from them again.
  5. Not thinking is more the key word in this matter!!!!
  6. I agree. Last couple of times I haven't been terribly pleased on how my packaging was with NG! Just put in a plastic zip bag and then a brown pouch type bag. Of course, it also didn't help that my mail carrier just smashed it into my tiny mail box rather than the big one for packages. I'm surprised that my oils came intact & not cracked or leaking!!!!
  7. I lost one of my big shot dies & was really upset about that!! Wanted to make sure I didn't lose any others & to be able to find them easier when I needed one or two. So, I grabbed a binder from work along with the plastic binder pockets while they were on sale during the back to school time. Also, got a packet or two of Avery magnetic sheets from Office Depot which was cut in half & they look much better!!! Only thing, is the magnetic sheets don't work that great holding onto the dies though. So, I might have to do something with that in the near future...
  8. Hi. I was wondering if any of you have used paperboard jars for your cosmetics? If so, could you please tell me a little more about them? I'm afraid that the metal tins are becoming a bit more expensive now for making my perfumes. So, am looking around at other possibilities just in case. Hope all is well for you guys...
  9. Hmm. Are they ones that Brambleberry just gives to you, or do you purchase them? I'm afraid that I don't see them on their website...
  10. I see where you're going and understand why things are so hard. Basenotes is one I occasionally look at when I get stuck with my perfumes. If I can think of anything, I will share it with you guys! But, at this time Scenter Square sounds pretty cool!!!
  11. I agree. It's sad because I really like their stuff and don't mind ordering from them. But, after what I delt with it's turned me off with them and am looking for another place to order from next time!
  12. I ordered some scents from NG this last month to replenish my stock. When I did it, there was a sale going on where I could get an additional rewards for orders. However, even after I placed my order and received the selection, they hadn't increased those rewards even for what I had bought. I contacted their customer service a time or two, NG apologized and said that they would take care of things. When I finally got my additional rewards a few weeks later after the contact with them, it was only increased by 17 even after all that trouble. Needless to say, I'm still not impressed...
  13. Sorry about the nonsense!!! ๐Ÿ™ We're thankful to have you around!!!
  14. What kinds of scents do you already have? Also, what exactly are you looking for? I have all kinds of fragrance oils anywhere from: floral, fruit and other types of scents. I guess, it'd depend on what you're looking to accomplish. Wish I had more info for you...
  15. Thanks! My husband mentioned using: Remake of Hannele. This is what I plan on doing...
  16. I found this Perfume that I wouldn't mind recreating. However, the name is fairly long to put in the whole original name to add it. How would you guys do it? I usually put in remake at the end of the original name that way I can show who actually made this before me. The only ones I make these for are friends, family and coworkers. I don't have a business where I actually sell these. Here's the name of it to help. Thanks! https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/PP-Perfumes-Helsinki/Hannele-60507.html
  17. A lot of times I look at this website for ideas when looking for new perfume ideas. I don't always have all the scents for these, but at least I can use some of what I see to help me. Hopefully this will give you some ideas! Good luck! https://www.fragrantica.com
  18. Congrats & glad to hear it!!! I had one person that I "sold" some of mine to and she was excited to receive hers too. The others I made were for gifts and those are all made, 4 sets still need to be given or delivered. Sure wish I could just put my feet up and relax. Work has been very stressful in preparation for the holidays. Looking forward to 2023 as well! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas & a safe New Years celebration!!!
  19. Thanks for the info! I've done quite a bit of looking around about these trying to decide. I've heard lots of good things about the two machines though, just might not be quite what I'm looking for. I guess we'll see...
  20. Looked at that Canon printer and it was tiny!!! That thing was way too small to do anything useful at all and pretty much could fit in the palm of my hand! Been really looing at a Cricut Explore Air 2 cause we have one at work for sale. But, I notice that the only way you can use those is if you register it and am not sure about that. Did you register yours? If so, do you get lots of junk mail from registering? That's the thing I'm concerned of.
  21. Been having lots of trouble with printing my labels for the perfume I make. So, was hoping to buy a Cricut machine in order to help me out!!! Found one for a REALLY good price!!! Just don't like the thought though of having to register it in order to be able to use it...
  22. Congrats!!! Hope all goes well with this!!!!!๐Ÿ™‚
  23. What do you guys think about the Canon Ivy Mini Photo Printer? I'm thinking of maybe looking into one to use for my label printing rather than a regular printer...
  24. I found a used big shot die machine on craigslist for $45!!! I've been having a great time with it and have used it many times within the last couple of weeks that I've gotten it!!!!
