  1. Another great place to check is http://gotprint.com. We just got 1000 cards from there ($23.19 including shipping). These were done with our uploaded image with UV Gloss coating (full color front and Black and White on the back) I used to print our cards on our laser printer, then have to cut them. These are actually cheaper and a lot less work though.
  2. Hi Christina. I was wondering where you went. It's been busy here so I haven't been on here much lately. I'm too late, but I was going to tell you not to worry. We don't spray our molds either, never have. Glad to see your back and hopefully you'll get settled in soon.
  3. Ours are labeled by the weight of the shea. For example we have 8 oz. jars that hold 4 oz. of whipped shea. We label those as 4 oz. on the label.
  4. We got them in a box of 2000 cups and a box of 2000 lids for $20 each box at Sam's Club. Unfortunately they have been just sitting here and we haven't used them much.
  5. Haven't used those specifically, but I can tell you we've done many container candles in the 8.5 oz. libbey wine glasses. We get them from a different source, but this link is just for a reference to what glasses they are. http://www.restockit.com/85-Oz-Chalice-Wine-Beverage-Sheer-Rim---(8565SRLIB)---ON-SALE-TODAY!.html
  6. NG has some great scents. The Island Fresh is super strong in wax and soap.
  7. We use 4630 for our container wax. We have never had a problem with curing the candles. I think that may apply more to natural waxes. Really haven't noticed a difference between lighting a candle the next morning compared to a week later.
  8. I'm assuming this isn't a container blend if you are looking to use it for votives. Is it scented? If so you could break it into pieces and melt it on a warmer like a tart for yourself. Otherwise you could use the wax to make fire starters.
  9. The one time we tried them that is how they came out. It was almost like brownie batter once the citric was added. They are nice, but they make a mess of your tub.
  10. Tonight it's Just Scent Hot Maple Toddy. Just finished pouring some NG - Island Fresh Gain downstairs.
  11. We have been using this wax for a few years now as well. As Jane said, we also had some smoking issues in the beginning. I am blaming them on overwicking though. The smaller size LX wicks work great for this wax. The wax has a very nice appearance and great scent throw. We didn't have one problem at all shipping container candles this past summer. That includes sending candles to Florida, Texas, Arizona, and Nevada.
  12. One more vote for BCN "Cinnamon Red Hot". It's been in our top 3 sellers for a year or so.
