  1. I am looking for a good green tea. I tried LS's but didn't really like. I want just a straight green tea. Any suggestions? TIA
  2. I use Lookout Point ( rename it though) and my mama's blueberry cobbler. Neither are my favorites but my customers sure love them.
  3. I use the cuppa coffee and the ultimate vanilla. Both are great sellers for me. I haven't gotten an fo from her that i didn't like. I just wish I would win the lottery so I could try all her fo's. She also has great prices and great sales! Make sure you are on her mailing list if you aren't already. I am getting ready to get into b & b and will probably try her new line.
  4. Good Lookin' Cowboy is one of my best sellers. Every FO I have gotten from Daystar are just great. She has a lot of unique scents.
  5. Those are beautiful! I haven't got up the nerve to do pillars yet but plan on trying in the near future. I will definitely keep that wax in mind. Thanks for posting.
  6. I love Just Scent's White Cake!
  7. The candle is beautiful. I am so sorry for you loss. Hugs and prayers coming your way. :awww:
  8. Congrats on the great open house! This is also my first Christmas selling and sales have been great. Doesn't it feel good? Have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy your son being home!
  9. Congratulations! That was a super show! :highfive:
  10. I was a rep for GC for about a year. Their candles are great! When they went up on the pricing is when I decided to start making my own. I had considered making candles before but when I came across GC through a friend, I decided to become a rep. The pricing wasn't bad and the candles were great, but the pricing went up drastically and now the rep details have changed alot so I am happy that I now make my own.
  11. Great Job!:highfive: I really like it. Your soap looks great. I need to get a site up just waiting on the funds.
  12. That's sounds like a fun show to do. Congrats on the sales and have fun making many more.
  13. Sounds like a good idea & welcome back to the board.
  14. That's fantastic! Congratulations!
  15. I am sitting here at my day job bored out of my mind thinking about all the things I could be getting done at home in my new work area. I have to go straight home to get an order together for my sister. (She is selling like crazy for me! Yah!:highfive: ) I am almost totally out of all my stock. I will be pouring containers, making air fresheners, cocoa mugs, etc. I also need to sit done and get some paperwork done. Things have taken off so fast the last few weeks, I haven't had a chance to sit down and get some bookkeeping done. I hate that part. I need to find a good spreadsheet or software to help me keep track of everything. The notebook just isn't going to work much longer. :embarasse
  16. Mine would be- Dreamsicle Sugar Cookie Southern Magnolia Blueberry Cobbler Mulberry
  17. Georgia, everything looks great! How did the candle warmers do for you? I was suprised I sold all that I brought to my show.
  18. Take a deep breath! You'll do fine. Hang in there, girl!
  19. Wow! Your candles are beautiful! I want to try making pillars as soon as I have some time to play.
  20. Ok, I just posted about my first craft show, now I want to share how my week has gone so far. Saturday, I was busy getting ready for the show and my sweetheart of a husband decided to make me my own spot in his beloved garage/shop. I could not believe it. He built me a worktable and shelves. Now we live in the south so I won't be able to store any out there because of the heat. But he is now saying he is going to put up some walls so we can put in heat and a/c to control the temps. The other good news is my sister brought a bunch of my candles to work w/ her and sold everything she brought and took orders for over $250 more! Then she calls me today and says her best friend is selling BeautiControl. She wants to also sell my candles at her home parties. Everything is not finalized by any means but it sure seems like things are coming together for me. Now I have to get busy restocking. Sorry so long- just had to share.
  21. I don't know what I am doing wrong. I added the pics but I can't open them. Let me know if any of you can. Sorry. I am trying:embarasse
  22. Hey everyone! I finally have my first show done! It was Sunday 12-5pm. I live in a little bitty town and all the shops on main street put on a Christmas shopping extravaganza. There was also a tent set up w/ myself and 3 other vendors. Cards were handed out and the person had to go to each booth or shop to get their card stamped. Then each completed card got put into a big basket. At the end of the evening, each vendor drew a card to give a gift basket away. The person didn't have to be present to win. Ok, on with how the show went. I brought in a little over $500! I was so excited. I think it went great. I am going to try to post some pics. Let me know what y'all think. EDIT- I will try to redo the pics when I get home tonight on my own computer.
