You may want to do a search in the archives for threads about those watchmaker cases. Some people had trouble with the scents not staying contained and blending together over time. The lids just sit on top instead of screwing or snapping on so they are not airtight. Also, the edges of both the case and the tins/lids are pretty sharp. I have one, and experienced the same problems other people did. It's a shame, because they are really cute and would be perfect otherwise. And yes, fo's containing vanilla can react with aluminum. Two of my worst offenders are Amish Harvest and Pink Sugar. (If anyone has any suggestions for preventing this, I am all ears!) Good luck to you!

The only reason to even respond to this comment is incase a new person should come across this thread using the search engine down the road and think that everyone in this thread that advised you to slow down was paranoid! You have been given some VERY good and WISE advice from EXPERIENCED chandlers who were trying to HELP you. Their posts were not out of paranoia, jealousy, or deliberate attempts to discourage you. They were only trying to help you and perhaps prevent a tragedy down the road somewhere. As for your original question, the short answer is yes, they do lose the scent over time.

You may want to re-check your policy. It's my understanding that State Farm does not carry or offer product liability. My agent had me all excited that I could have a policy rider on our house insurance for less than $200 more a year, only to call me the next day with the news that he was, in fact, wrong, and that State Farm does not offer product liability... As a Christian and preacher's wife, I can certainly relate to trusting God. I believe that He places people in our path for a reason, though. I also believe that when this happens, we would be wise to listen! There are chandlers here who have been doing this for many years and have great knowledge and expertise. Perhaps God allowed you to find this forum so that you could be told to slow down and take the time to learn from those that He has made available to you. I know you are excited, and I'm not doubting that God placed candle making on your heart; however, you need to listen to the advice of those He has placed in your path and not get ahead of yourself (and Him). P.S. Something else to think about: As a Christian, everything we do is supposed to be as unto Him and for His glory and honor. You should want to do this to the absolute best of your ability and produce a high quality product that is safe. You can only do this if you truly know your product inside & out, backwards & forwards... you get the picture. You honestly can not do that in just a few short weeks with as many scents and sizes that you are offerring.

Wow. Just curious...do you know which home owners insurance that customer had?

They are really cute, but they are small. I just measured for you and they are 4.25", not including the handle. With the handle, they are 6.5" When you go to the site click on "wholesaler". They will send you a price list after you email them the information they need. The last price I had on the lamps were 14.95 each, minimum order of 6. You are very welcome!

If you have a tax ID then you might try the link below. They are $2.50 each, must buy in quantities of 12. They are nice skillets...very cute. http://www.candlewarmer.com/Products.aspx?cat=accessory

If you have Avery Design Pro then just make your own template. It is really easy to do and is very accurate. If you do not have that program then you can go to the Avery website and download it. It is free and is a great tool to use for labels. I agree, Word is a pain in the rear to use, especially when doing round labels. Although if you have a friend who can do them for the same price it costs you to do them yourself then I'd say go for it, lol.

Well...I order from both and Planetlabel has sent me the wrong labels twice, lol. I must say, though, that they were very quick to make it right both times. I have not had problems with Online Labels (yet). I hope you find something that will work for you.

LOL, Grumpy Girl! Guess you aren't a Steven King fan, then, huh?

I'm assuming that it is something to be used with adult supervision, but how many would actually use it that way. I can just see a parent sending a child to bed with it so that when they get scared they can "spray the monsters away". So many people don't watch their kids as closely as they should. We all know how well people read warnings, lol. I do injected bears and have "keep away from children and pets" all over the things and still have people wanting to buy them for their kids. Even had one mother that had bought one for herself ask if she could give it to her baby to play with once the scent was gone When I explained to her why that was a bad idea and that that was the reason I had "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN AND PETS" on the warning label, she said "Oh, I never even bothered to read that." :rolleyes2

Ok, I first saw this product several months ago and since then I still have the same question/concern. This is a product for kids, right? Well what happens if they 1) spray it in their eyes 2) spray it in their mouths or worse, drink it 3) get it on their hands and rub their eyes, or 4) any numerous things that children do??? I do not mean any disrespect at all - the concept is very cute. I just have concerns as to the safety of this. Guess it's the momma coming out in me :undecided

Thanks ladies! That's what I wanted to hear Wow AJ! Love those soaps! Angela, that is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks again for all of your help.

Carrie, I have very fine and straight hair that is prone to splitting. The Monoi has been very healing for it. I instantly saw a difference. I have read where people use it as a "hot oil" type of treatment but have not tried that yet myself. I may be wrong (someone please correct me if I am) but isn't Monoi basically coconut oil with the Tiare flower extract? I have always been told that coconut oil was very good for the hair...but again, I could be mis-informed.

After I wash my hair I apply a tiny (and I do mean TINY or else you'll have a greasy mess!) amount to my wet hair then blow dry it as usual. Have you ever used BioSilk, or Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum, or Infusium 23? They are smoothing/anti-frizz/shine enhancing conditioners. I use the Monoi exactly like these products would be used. Only I use much less of the Monoi and it works so much better than anything else I have tried. It leaves my hair soft & shiny and makes it very easy to style. Plus it smells great, lol.
