  1. Don't worry folks, mark my words, if her tart business doesn't stay as successful as it currently is or as she hopes, she will be back as a supplier once AGAIN. ETS: Someone should just ask her, instead of "being so kind" to fill orders until Dec. 31st,..why not ask her to share where you can replace some of her oils from (not that she will say) but its worth a shot, or maybe e-mail her about a certain fragrance that she has that you just cannot live without?
  2. That is my tart blend as well (50/50 415 & 4625).
  3. Yep. Think sexy, think red hot cinnamon, maybe some clean scents and candy like scents. And dont forget, you can use some of your original fragrances and maybe just change the names of them to Valentine 'theme" names.
  4. This is her responce as of yesterday to those on her FB page.... Miami-Erie Candle Supply Sorry for the short notice, figured this would give people time during the holiday season when most places are closed to try to find replacements for our scents. Sorry and thanks so much for your understanding. ETS: Now really,..when most places are closed!!!!! And she had fragrances that probably wont be found anywhere unless she shared that info (which she wont),..so alot of people are just left hanging AGAIN. RRRRRRRR,..she boils my blood, but I know her personally,..she doesn't care about others, only herself.
  5. I guess a few of her customers on her FB page are upset that they cant even purchase one last time. She deleted her Miami-Erie site.
  6. No,..not her attitude!!! I had a "run-in" with her on this very board in 2006 when she was Snowtop,..and I warned people and some just thought I was "bashing" a business and now look,..everything I have said in the past has come to light with others as well and with her supply business. I knew eventually others would see her true side.
  7. Missywick,..She gave no notice. She's done this before with Snowtop. Only now that her Front Porch Tart/Candles are doing so well, she cant handle the supply business (thats my guess). So those who bought supplies from her, that helped to support our compitition, your now left hanging once again.
  8. It doesn't surprise me. Her Front Porch candle business is doing so well and as she stated on her FB page, thats where her focus will be. First it was the wax with no notice to her customers and now its the oils. She is to "flighty" as a supplier so its probably best. First Snowtop and now Miami Erie,..I wont be surprise if she comes back and under a new name again. ETS: wonder if she will sell her supplies off to ICS as before, or to anyone else! :undecided
  9. Yeah, I think mine is bad,..its seems to take a few hours to heat to 180.
  10. Do you keep your on overnight if you know you'll be pouring the next day, or do you turn off when done and reheat? How long does it usually take to get your wax at the temp you want? I think I need a new Presto,..its taking way to long to get it to 180 and stay there without the wax coolng down,...Rrrrrr!
  11. I AGREE!!! You have to drop some and add new ones. I usually buy in 1 pounders and if that 1 pd. of FO moves slow, I will drop it and look to add a new scent in place of it,..usually its a new scent I have never carried so I will test it (smaller bottle) first and if its a good one, then it becomes one of my new scents.
  12. Just butting in here to say,..I bet that would be a good one. ^
  13. 50% Lavender 25% Pink Sugar 25% Vanilla Next: Hippy Hippy Shake
  14. For those of you who ship products out of state to wholesaler's, what form of shipping is the best for you for heavy shipments?
  15. You sure went through alot over this, glad you are getting a refund.
  16. Thats what I am going to do, I am lucky enough to live in Ohio close to The Candle Source and The Candlemaker Store,..I think I am going to try to do 90% of my buying with the two. Just wished both of them added new fragrance often though.
  17. Yep,..they are going up 2%. Here is a more detailed read on all of it.... ETA: http://postandparcel.info/51174/news/companies/usps-to-hike-shipping-rates-letter-prices-to-rise-2-6/ I'm so glad we can pay bills online these days for free,..I cant see paying .46 cents to mail a check. I'm thinking about purchasing all my supplies locally starting next year, I've already seen on a couple supplier's Facebook pages that they are gearing up to raise their shipping costs..and some "gouge" on their shipping now, I bet they raise their price more than a buck.
  18. Yeah, looks like everything is going up about a buck. It sucks when you ship in volumes too.
  19. http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2012/pr12_114.htm Grrrrrrr!!!
  20. What jars are you using for candles and how much are you paying per jar? I am using 8 oz. JJ from TCS (.60 each, no shipping) and Pint Masons using white plastic lids (from WM),..so far my cost is about $1.20 per Pint Mason jar (no shipping).
  21. What is your favorite spicy scent that you sell all year and where from?
  22. I tested my 3022 in tarts and its great but in a candle it just doesnt seem to be any better then my straight 415,..infact I think the straight 415 in a candle with the same scent is stronger. Maybe the 3022 should be more of a tart wax. Dunno!!!!
  23. How many you DONT sell online? I always see peeps sellin gonline of course, was just curious how many of you dont. Is there anyone on here who refuses to sell online for any reason or another?
  24. Well it give me the impression of summer'ish.... Purple Rain Voodoo Verbena Purple Taboo Granny's Purple Apron Golden Eyed Purple People Eater (haha) Sticky Skys Strappy Sandals Golden Flower Child Honey I Painted the Kids Purple (that will get some attention) lol
  25. Faithful, I think I read on that page that she sprays it when she is done with some sorta adhesive.
