Yes Loren is quick on shipping, very polite & is adding more 'new' fragrances all the time - I have to place an order TONITE(LOL) ~Carlena~ www.carlenascreations.com
  6. I get at least 95% of my oils from The Candle Source; un-believably prices & un-believably scents! In my book they are as good or better then NG, BCN....Loren is a wonderful supplier to get from! He's quick with shipping too! I do get my Fresh Cut Grass from NG www.creflections.com is where i purchase my April Fresh Downy(i swear it is the exact dupe of what i use in my laundry, color and everything) ~Carlena~ www.carlenascreations.com

  9. I ordered awhile ago from www.creflections.com & there April Fresh Downy is awesome! I only have one customer that loves it so much! I didnt realize it was Soap Safe either; so i may have to make some of that up & offer it to other customers - it smells just like the Downy we use for laundry fabric softener.....you've got to try it out!! ~Carlena~
  10. I also got my Banner & window decals from him....wonderful job & very easy to work with i must say too...... When i'm finished filling up my table with all my crafts; i hang my banner on the front of my table; using safety pins in the holes & it hangs nicely in the front! ~Carlena~
  11. Well, I have used these ones myself in Soy & the downy dont smell like downy smells more like baby powder but its nice! The rest are GREAT! Mid Summers Night Coffee Caramel Cream Downy J&J Bedtime Bath Now, it looks like i'll have to not only purchase the Pumpkin Vanilla but the Sugared Spruce -!! Amazing Supplier - can't ask for it any better then this. ~Carlena~
  12. I have tried The Candle Source & Just Scent's April Fresh Downy - nothing compares it to Country Reflections - - the scent is Dead On! Very 'popular' scent for me too; i dont always order from there either thats why i tried Loren from The Candle Source as i love there fragrances! But Country Reflections is just like you use in your laundry - exact dupe! I have also purchased Sweat Pea & Sugar Cookies from Country Reflections - WOW there fo's are awesome! Good Luck! ~Carlena~

  15. OMG - I've been purchasing from Loren for yr & a half never realized she was a he...... I also feel real stupid! I have just about every FO they got! People you have got to try the Vicks - WOW one of my 'TOP' sellers for candles & smelly jelly's; this one i cant keep in stock! The Moonlight Path - dead onto the B&B product..... I cannot say nothing bad about this Supplier! Fast, Friendly & the quickest shipping ever from 'any' supplier:) Very happy with 'his' service! Now, i dont have the Pumpkin & Vanilla yet so you all talking so highly about it i may have to get it sometime soon:wink2: ~Carlena~
  16. I've seen these Woodwicked candles in the Hallmark store couple weeks ago - didnt buy one but very spendy! ~Carlena~
  17. I would 'gladly' put them in the fire - and glad i dont have to buy them anymore either! I've had that Angel 'Recipe' for quite sometime now & just havent had the nerve yet to buy a box of Tampons..... I'm still celebrating:D ~Carlena~
  18. Yep, i use them for Baby Shower Favors & use CD-10's Good Luck! ~Carlena~
  19. The jars/labels are just too "CUTE":) I had to order 250 of these off of Specialty Bottle for a Wedding in May.....She was using them as Gifts to give to the people attending. Talk about a 'crinkle' in the neck after making them:undecided They were fun to make though - although the lids compared to yours from Fillmore are different then what i had recvd. i got the gold twist caps like the hex jars have & the jars were plain. This lady had her own label for me to put on when i was finished making them - LOTS of work but again, they are fun little jars! Oh and she had me do them in Wedding Cake FO - - i had to take them Camping with me to get them done, WOW our camper smelled just lovely:D ~Carlena~
  20. Since i use CD Wicks - i was told to twist them. You know how they hang over to one side - this i was sooooooo thankful for to have been told this! ~Carlena~ ~Carlena's Creations~ www.carlenascreations.com **You block your dream when you allow your fear to grow bigger than your faith.**
