I need to go back and re-smell my samples of both of these FO's. I have several that another member on here sent me. Thanks for sharing :-)

I have found with a lot of MW fo's that they bloomed once they were in something. I had a floral muse sitting around for almost a year because I wasn't sure of it oob...lol

@Moonshine....i have Karens Ocean Rain, didnt care much for it. I also have Coconut Lemon Grass and Tahitian Petals, both were light oob but did great in my parasoy blend. They also did great in B&B, I think some of them come to life once they are in something. I also find that the more expensive fo's in my opinion tend to be a bit lighter but have a lot more depth and notes once in a product.

I am so glad to hear that- I have a couple 1 ouncers to test out!

Definetly give it a try and let me know what you think. I also have Celestial Seas from MW burning right now in coconut wax and it smells great. Its not super strong or anything but I love this interpretation of the ocean. This will be also be good in soap!

I just had to shout out that to me this is one of the best floral fragrances I have smelled in a long time. I'm not a floral fan and I find most way to strong and nauseating but this one is airy and light and rocks in coconut wax, I'm going to soap and lotion it today!

I got my samples from Sweet Cakes and I have to say they are VERY weak OOB.... I was totally expecting them to be super strong- I hope they come alive in wax with sooooo many people having nothing but great things to say about them- I will be trying them out in 415 soy this weekend- I hope- I hope they work- I love the smells of them I just have to really wiff to catch them.... but then again maybe I am getting a cold...again!

Which ones did you get?

Testing, testing, testing scents in coconut wax. Hope you feel better dcroome

You did a beautiful job on that!

I found them online at Dollar General, according to this page they are on sale for .87 but I'm not sure if this page is current or up to date....http://www.dollargeneral.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11787038

Okay so if dollar general is selling these already filled - the damn jar HAS to be available to buy somewhere- I just can't find that place yet

We don't have dollar generals around here - dollar stores but I haven't come across this jar so far in any of them but if I ever do I most definitely will do what Sliver did just to get some!

I agree that jar has got to be available somewhere, these other companies are buying them from someone. I have already check the usual vendors but no luck yet. :undecided

@Moonshine...yes that is exactly what they look like, great description.

@Sliver...yup, thats it and that does sound like a lot of work but they are so freakin adorable!

Here is the picture I took of them in the store. I purchased one and the wick extinguished itself about 15 minuets after I lit it up...lol The company on the bottom of the label said Star Candle Company.

Has anyone see these anywhere? I saw a candle in one the other day and they are so adorable. They look just like the 8oz square mason but half the size. I googled and didnt see them, so if anyone has seen them or knows who sells them any information would be appreciated.

Thanks:wink2:

I love and use the Dragons Blood from Southern Garden, which is now Sassy Girl if you want to buy less then 5lbs. I also like the one from CS but to me the Southern Garden's version seems to have more depth.

Definitely Sweet Cakes, I love their Tahitian Petals and Lemon Grass fo's and many more! I also love a lot of Moonworks and Daystar fo's that are in that $30 per pound range. But I have to say that Berts had some of the best affordable fo's around...I miss Bert

I always trim my wicks to the 1/4 inch but sometimes I get a little obsessed about it and I think I might trim them too short...:undecided

BTW....I have been curious for a while about what happened to Top, does anyone know?

Looks great!

VERY TRUE .. you can't please all of us !

lol....but the feedback really does help. The colors are off because I took the picture with my phone from the computer screen and it makes the top lettering look darker. Its actually the same green color as the bottom of the label. I also agree with ChandlerWicks, I'm going to make the center pink darker and this should make a green border around the center pop. I'll post it up tomorrow for opinions. Thanks again everyone for your help

That is a super sexy rack!

Ok, I made the changes... does this look better?

Thanks everyone, this really helps me a lot. I haven't had a chance to make any changes this weekend but I'm going to work on it again tomorrow and make the suggested changes.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the feedback, I will make the bottom bigger and the scent name smaller and repost to see what you think. How about the colors? Is it too pink? I want men to also purchase them but not sure if it talks to a man....lol

I'm trying to come up with a label for the coconut wax candles I'm making, so far this is what I came up with, I'm not sure about it and was hoping to get some feedback. Thanks for any thoughts. I took a picture of the computer screen so the colors are a little off...lol

Love it, the colors are great!

Has anyone tried any of the new scents in the Explorer Series from Scent Works? If so did you have any favorites?

I have seen those pages also where you can get more fans by reciprocating a like on their page etc...but to me they are what I call "fake" fans. It makes the numbers look good but it really doesn't do much more to promote your product to people who are really interested. I don't know, it would be nice to have lots of fans but I would prefer them to be real fans...lol

OK, just orders a sample pack of Premier Wicks. I agree that the CD dancing flame is annoying and I'll give these wicks a try. Can someone recommend sizes for a 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 container with 4630?

Thanks

Let me know how you make out with the Premier, I tried them with the and they mushroomed really bad for me.
