Well for the next 24 hours I am here alone with just the pets (if that's alone lol) so I'll be getting a lot done.
Melts...using up a bunch of my samples, making room for more FO lol
Candles...testing some new jars/wicks with more samples
Wickless tins...fall and christmas scents
Then it's labeling time and reorganizing work room.

Well, this is sorta on topic but........... what the heck do yall use to punch holes in these things???? LOL I got some ready to go and I've tried a long hole punch and they are too thick to fit in it. I've tried a brand new hole punch and it's not sharp enough. I've tried a drill and it tore it up. HELP!!
TIA,
chantel
The company I got them through has the holes already in them.
I got them from http://www.bellandcompanytrader.homestead.com/products.html

Thanks so much
The imprints on the melts I love too. Not cheap to do but worth it!
I noticed those too, very nice!

That is common with a lot of wickless candle sites.
Now the question is do I think it is a good idea NO your wax only hold so much oil the scent fades the the oil remains behind. Adding more oil just increases the chances of fire.
Others here will have varying opinions this is just mine.
I would have to agree with you, if wax can only hold so much, it doesnt seem like a great idea.

Hmmm, I made one of the cardvoard ones for my daughter and she loved it. Said it lasted all summer. Then I repainted it to try to "refresh" it for her and she said the refresh didn't work. Couldn't smell a thing with the refresh, so I thought they were a one time thing.

I made one for my son for his car, and it hung in there during the hot summer months in Kansas and made with red velvet cake (his favorite) and it stayed for quite a long time. I didn't try and refresh it though since it lasted so long. My (soon to be) daughter in law had one I made with Heavenly type and hers lasted a long time too. When I first made them I used quite a bit so they were super strong at first, and maybe between that and the hot cars that's why they lasted so long.

It might be a good deal if you can it real cheap and be able to pick it up. Boxes are deceiving. It looks like more dried floral arrangements than anything else. Last year I was at a ladies home that was selling her inventory that was in her storage shed and her home and was filled with candle supplies. I bought quite a bit and was able to get a pickup full for less than $100.00 dollars and that included brand new molds, soy and beeswax containers, wicks, and potpourri. I didn't buy any FO's. She was moving across country and didn't want to pay for a moving van. Very good deal for me and another candlemaker that was going through her stuff. What a high that was....
I noticed on the ebay site about shipping if you are willing to pay it, wowsers was all I could think about shipping cost. She appeared to have several oils and molds, but you are right, there was a lot of floral type stuff or basket filling stuff as well.

I use wick stickers and glue gun, well not together, but depending on the jar usually.
-
Yes, thats them! Thank you so much. Got tired of racking my brain!!:smiley2:
Very welcome! Glad I could help :smiley2:
-
That site is awesome lol
-
I seen these some where not long ago and cannot remember where, does anyone remember or know where I can get these at? There were 2 different size cases used for your candle scents.
They have them at BCS
-
OK, I just looked real quick did I miss where it said that the bid is only a down payment or something It looked to me like the bid what at $3 something and I didn't see a reserve...maybe I just need more coffee.
Yesterday it was 99 cents I think, so dont feel bad, I dont get it either and I have had a big cup of coffee lol

Hey next time ask them if they have a top secret security clearance and if not, sorry you can't tell them lol
Thankfully I've not had to deal with this yet. My friends and family who test for me just love my stuff and just buy more and like someone said, glad they dont have to make it. Most of them already know the time and money invested in it and are happy just being able to get it and leave it at that.
