I do a little of both I like being creative with some of the names, but on others that are pretty self explanatory I leave alone, like cinnamon, Lilac,etc..or I put something fun into those like Cinnamon Candy so they know what the scent is but its still a little fun.

I personally prefer J225, I started out with J223 and found that they both throw pretty much the same, hot and cold, I think they are great . One thing I like about the 225 is that there arent as many wet spots, Ive had a majority of my jars come out with none at all. Ive never tried the IGI4627, when you say messy to work with is that because its so soft? J223 was like that.. Id like to experiment with other waxes as well, is the IGI4627 a one pour with all the additives?

Thats what I had thought but wanted to make sure I wasnt missing something.. I use J225 and its all ready to go when I get it other than UV

Im using j225, should I add vybar 206 to this as well?? I didnt know it allowed you to add more FO, how much more?

hmmmm sounds like fun! lol I would like to eventually make my way into the B&B world.. for now Im just researching and will stick to candles until I feel ready to add more to my already growing list of things Id like to try LOL:shocked2:

Yep, wal-mart candles make me cringe lol but alas I get them EVERY damn year from my mother inlaw..Im thinking she does it as revenge? Im hopeing this year because Im making them that she wont give me any..they smell soooooooooo bad I couldnt even give them away.

I love callas! Those are awesome

hi!:wave:

Can you get ahold of some aroma beads and mix a drop or two of the FO in a zip lock and label the front with which scent? Set the baggie next to each tart display? Just an idea Good luck!

Thanks! I knew I should have checked those LOL :rolleyes2

Im not sure where to look to find out what these mean so out of sheer curiousity I thought Id ask.. what does C&P and M&P mean??

Weclome to the boards

Nice jars, but your right no way I could sell them at that price either...

Does anyone else use these guys and what do you think about them? Easy to use? Thanks!

My other question about FO's is.. what makes some FO sellers better than others, do some dilute their FO's? Ive been using candles and supplies so far they have been pretty good, Ive bought 2 that I havent liked.. anyone else try them?

Thanks for the advice.. you guys are great Im so glad I found this board to help me muddle through lol Im making my list and will narrow it down from there.. I live outside Philadelphia ( about 45 to an hour) so my sales will be alot of city not so much country.. but I know standards like vanilla, cinnamon etc.. will always be a wanted ( even if I cant stand the smell of vanilla lol)

Im trying to decide on how many scents I should carry, since I am so new to this Im trying to find out what the most popular selling ones are, I know I cant just sell ones I like only LOL I have to consider the consumer as well.. people arent always going to like just what I do.. so is there any way to figure this out?

Thanks for the link!!

Ok not to sound like adummy but whats BCS??

Thanks for all the help guys

Welcome :wave: Id say get a kit as well.. then go from there if you like it.

Those are adorable! Dont think Id want tot ackle making them though lol

Thanks Natures Graden got great reviews, Ive been ordering from candlesandsupplies and most of their scnets are good but I know theres got to be better out there and I dont want to limit myself to just one company. :smiley2:

Thanks! Will check them both out

Anyone know where to get a great one??

Ive actually used my blowdryer... I have this monster blow dryer that gets way too hot so Ive been using that.. maybe when that dies I will look into a heat gun..
