Someone mentioned it being different in this thread.... http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?99934-Anybody-have-any-Tennessee-Spicy-Apples-amp-Peaches-you-don-t-want I searched for a straight clove f/o and found NG carries one. NG also stated in there description there is a shortage

Has anyone else been told that their new shipment of this oil is going to be different? No clove. Why are they changing it? If this is true, anybody know of a really good clove f/o?

I just ordered some samples of... Caramel Apple Candy Corn Chestnuts & Brown Sugar Cinnamon Cider Pumpkin Pie Spice (I hope this one is more spice than pie crust) Mulberry (I need to find a stronger mulberry, I hope this is it!!!)

(JMHO) I got a sample of this last week. I haven't put it in wax 'cuz oob smells a lot of grapefruit. I was surprised it was so citrusy. It's a nice smell but with the word "cider", I was expecting something different. I really need to put it in wax to see if the other notes come alive.

Thank you guys for all the great suggestions!!! It's gonna be tough narrowing it down to just a few

Those are pretty!!! Co-op??

Sorry if this has been discussed recently. I've tried searching but I keep getting old threads. I need to place an order with them tomorrow. So many other suppliers I've used in the past are closing I thought I would try some fall f/o's from them. :smiley2: Tia

I ordered some samples a few months back when I needed wax. I just poured Pumpkin Spice to test. I love it!!! It throws wonderful in parasoy.

I googled night light bulbs and most of the wattages were 7w or 10w. Then I searched for 15 watt night light bulbs and I found this... $1.25 eCrater - ckays 15 Watt Steady Burn Light Bulb 15 WATT CLEAR LIGHT BULB **SAME SIZE AS A NIGHT LIGHT BULB BUT THE WATTAGE IS TO HIGH FOR USE IN NIGHT LIGHTS OR CANDLE LAMPS 2-1/8"L Is this the same type of bulb?

I saw that one and I'm so tempted.... :tiptoe:

Thank you Barbara. I found an old post that said Camden-Gray was like the real thing. I went to their website but I couldn't find it. I guess they no longer carry it

I'm being nosey, lol. Did she say what happened to them?

Hey Barbara, Does this smell perfurmey? I looked everywhere a few years ago for one that didn't smell perfumey. I love the smell of the tea olive bushes that bloom here in the south during the spring. I wish some one could dupe it

SliverOfWax you're right but it Sucks!!! If they take us all out of the homemade market, it will also take out most of our suppliers & hurt theirs. I can't even imagine how many jobs would be loss. And they are very limited jobs out there available. I've been looking for a part- time job for 3 months now while I go to school. I haven't found nothing yet

I did find this later when I googled the words differently. http://candleandsoap.about.com/od/ideafile/i/The-Safe-Cosmetics-Act-Of-2010.htm Call me paranoid if you want to but it sounds like small businesses are taking money away from the big guys and they don't like it. I hope people in office realize the big guys may have the money to donate but us little guys make the majority of votes.

I would think for f/o's it will vary from supplier to supplier. As far as e/o's I don't know. I've read that you have to be very careful with e/o's because of their therapeutic properties. Sorry I'm not much help. What supplier are you looking at? Most usually have it listed under each f/o if it is skin safe or not.

Never assume they are skin safe. If the supplier doesn't list it as skin safe I would call and ask or assume it's not. JMO

For me, I would have to smell Holiday Frost and for Garden in the fall the sound of tomato leaves turned me off. I know what tomato leaves in real life smell like and they don't smell good at all imho, lol. So I picked a scent I'm more familiar with that I know I like. HTH

I remember that year!!! It was awful I agree you're better off creating your own blend to your satisfaction.

Did anyone else get this email from WSP? Does anyone know what is going on in Washington about Soap & Candles? She's asking for soap but the email says it's about Soap & Candle ingredients. WSP: "Elected officials in Washington want to better understand our industry so that they do not inadvertently develop laws that hurt us. I am preparing for a future trip to Washington with The Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild to meet with several elected officials. I would like to display and present several different bars of soap that have been produced by customers of Wholesale Supplies Plus! If you are interested in helping me, please consider the following. Donate 2-8 bars of soap that is regulated by the FDA. Make sure the bars are retail ready with correct cosmetic labels. Include any business cards you would like me to forward on your behalf. "

Do you think Sandy Stones is a dupe to Y's Sun & Sand? NG has Sun and Sand Type and it's on their best seller page.

Someone had already started a thread over there about the same problem back in October. It's looks like it has been going on for 3 months. http://www.thescentreview.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=7141
