Try here: http://www.mindystartburnersandmore.com/mindysw.html I saw one on her website. I've purchased from her before and they sold like hotcakes! Very cute! HTH

I only use my regular line, nothing different. At this time, I make 9 oz sq mason, 16 oz sq mason and enamel mug. They can choose what containers they want to sell. If they choose the mug too, I tell them the only color is white. I price them a little higher than my wholesale price. The very 1st fundraiser I did I used the standard 16oz. mason jar, nothing fancy, gold two piece lid and homespun and my label. Didn't look too bad, but wasn't what I sold. Priced them cheap because they were cheaper to make. Then when the buyers wanted more, they wanted the same jar at the same price. Well.......I don't make those and my regular line was nicer looking, but also a little more $$...and that didn't work for them. So I lost sales. Afterall you want to use the fundraisers as an advertising tool, so why change your product? Also, when they turn in the order, I pull from my inventory first, then make the rest and a few more to put back on the shelf. That way I can have new stock on my shelves. And I give them about 20 scents to choose from (ones I can easily get from my local supplier or from a supplier I typically order alot from) 6 scents tops. None of my higher priced oils or candles that require two oils to make. That has worked very well and even get orders from the buyers! HTH;)

I did order one of those too! Very nice can, one piece can (no seem on the bottom). I'm looking around and no luck yet! I'll post if I can find something close!

Since I was looking for these jars, I did purchase a few to take a look at them :embarasse ....they look terrific and are very nice candles with great throw! I does look somewhat like a palm wax possibly mixed with some soy, but then, even if you add "some" soy they can still say "soy". If you take a straight paraffin wax and add castor oil (??) can't remember off the top of my head,you can get the mottled look. I've done that before but they didn't turn out like these. Definitely a plam look here. Anyone know where to get the 16 oz. bail wire jars they use? Candlemakers Store has the 9 oz. which I ordered. Oops....maybe this should be in "general" thread? Oh, and the embeds can be purchased from ebay sellers. That's where I get ALL of mine! I have tons and tons of embeds!! Thanks!

WOW! I knew you gals would come thru!!!:highfive: That's exactly what I was looking for! Way to go girls! Thanks so so much!

Hi! I seem to be having NO luck in locating some of these jars. I saw them at www.applesmith.com (they call them their vintage candles) and would like to find some for a fundraiser I'm doing. They want them for their country store. Anyone know where I can get these? Or something like them? Thanks so much!

HI! First thing that came to mind is "Crystals & Candles"? That deals with what you are making. HTH! I hope it doesn't sound too corny!

Nevermind! found the solution in archives! Bless those archives! Hi all! I'm not a B&B person at all but do dabble with bath salts for 2 customers of mine. I use the recipe on BCN or BCS website using dead sea salts, epsom salts, Deandra..... ? salt..add FO to that and mix into the salts and add a tiny amount of cyclometh....??? shake real good and put into salt tubes. Did that, but after about 2 months they look like they are melting at the bottom (getting to look like slush). Does anyone have a better recipe or could tell me something that i'm doing wrong???:embarasse Actually, I really like the look of the bath salts that have more of a powdery look to them. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

HI! I use IGI 4625 for mine. I use it also in the electric cake candles. Performs really well! HTH!

Hi ya'll! LOL I am a BIG fan of Texas Candle Supply. I purchase all of my wax from Jim and some of my oils. I drive to his place (190 miles round trip)! yikes! I have just poured a fundraiser using his Baked Apple ~ OMG! You want a strong one, that is the one! His Creme Brulee is to die for, Vanilla Extract - blow your socks off! His Leather is so true and is one of my biggest sellers! Texas Bluebonnet is very strong. I sell to a Hyatt resort and they purchase this one in large #'s. I'm sure there a few more, but I'm going blank right now.... Hope this helps!

Try out Yes Supply Co. they have a pretty good selection of jars. http://www.yessupplyco.com/products/studio_capri_madison_jars.htm HTH!

Hi! Texas Candle Supply has High Maintenance and I just love it! HTH

DO NOT RESPOND TO HER! I got the same exact email from her and responded by asking her to send me some of her business info, address, tele, website, etcc....and got no response. I never give out free samples anyway! HTH

wow! Those look very nice! Very summery!

Well, I just had to order! Saved $18.25!!!*super banana* Christmas Splendor Cinnamon Cider Gingerberry Wreath Pomegranate (great for mixing or on it's own) Warm Orange Gingerbread Woodland Wreath Gotta get ready/thinking about fall already! Ug! Thanks again carol k!

Right on RingofFire! And, I DO use them, and have for years!!! They are true professionals and do a very, very fine job!

CONGRATULATIONS & HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! You must be so excited!

You can check this website. But usually on those types of requests, I just mix them myself. However, Wholesalesuppliesplus.com has Raspberry Lemonade according to this website/listing. HTH:smiley2: http://www.fragranceoilfinder.com/catalog/index.php

Hi! I just went on their site and it's there.....:smiley2: HTH

Just emailed ya!

Howdy to you too! I WAS using the J50 act-alike (not!) but switched to TCS TXCS-5468 and I love it!!! Makes a real nice looking candle, very minimal wet spots, if any, and the slabs come apart wonderfully for easy loading into my melters. Jim is a real nice guy. I just purchased 13 cases from him this past weekend. His oils are great too! Leather is to die for and his vanilla extract is out of this world!! HTH
