  1. I think Connie's is one of those suppliers that gets overlooked...her oils are great and wonderful customer service.

    I've used Willow Inn, Hot Maple Toddy, Pumpkin Brulee( my best seller for 2 yrs), Hazelnut Creme Brulee and Chestnuts & Brown Sugar with great results in 415.

  2. Hi all,

    Don't bash me.

    I just want to say that I'm so sorry that I let you and all my customers down. I had some bad health issues and I know that is no excuse but I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

    We have had so many emails to stay opened so we decided to sell our top fragrances only. So if you want to let everyone know. We will have a letter on the site letting people know and I hope to win you and all my customers back.

    Email us the ones you would like to see keep and if they are enough request for it we will.

    Just look over the bad grammar. LOL

    Thanks

    Brent & Kimberlie

    This is wonderful news Brent & Kimberlie!! Wishing you the best!!!

  3. Many of their oils are excellent in soy..some not so much.

    The ones I have used in the past with great results are already sold out.

    Ok..just checked again and they still have Apple Cinnamon, Butterscotch Brulee and Vanilla Bean Noel...I have used all of these in 415 and they are strong!

  4. They do have a lot of really great FO's...many of their blends I haven't found anywhere else. Before they started including shipping in their prices I used quite a few of their FO's.

    If you're only buying 1 or 2 pounds the total doesn't come to that much more than I pay from other suppliers. But when buying several pounds of different oils...it gets pricey.

    Their shipping seems to be slower than other suppliers too...and I'm in the same state.

    So I guess you can say...I love their oils, just can't afford to buy a large variety from them anymore!

  5. Hi Karen, Did you ever get a chance to put any of these in wax yet? Would love to hear your thoughts :-)

    Sorry..just saw this!

    So far I have only been able to test Salty Sea Air and Cinnamon & Spruce.

    Years ago I carried Salty Sea Air from another supplier ...Keystone??....so I was very happy to see RE now carrying it. And I was not disappointed.....in my opinion this is what I want an ocean candle to smell like. Nice and strong in 415.

    Cinnamon & Spruce is probably my new favorite scent...not just a Christmas scent...excellent in 415.

    Lavender & Chamomile I have poured but have yet to light....I'm a huge fan of anything lavender and this one is beautiful. Nice CT...hoping for a great HT!

    Not sure if I'm even going to test Red Maple Leaf....I'm just not crazy about it OOB and since I'm retiring at the end of the year don't think I'm going to bother.

  6. I use Rustic Escentuals/Aroma Haven/KY for the majority of my supplies...soy, wicks, labels, wick stickums, and FO's. There are a few FO's that I get from other suppliers...Miami Erie, Candle Science, Tennessee and Southern Scentsations. But as I find replacements for those oils with RE/AH...I will be switching over so that eventually I just use them and Fillmore for glassware.

  7. I still haven't tested all the samples I got from Connie's...Hot Maple Toddy, Fireside Inn, Coffee Cake & Spice and Pumpkin Brulee are all excellent in soy and smell wonderful!! The Pumpkin Brulee is only $13.50 a pound...it just went up from $12.95...it has become one of my biggest sellers since I added it in September. Just ordered more this week...will be putting Hazelnut Cream and Banana's Foster into soy next weekend.

    Connie's Candles has been wonderful to deal with...super fast and reasonable shipping! On my last order she even refunded me some of my shipping costs...she was able to ship it cheaper than what her cart came up with. Gotta love that!!! :-)

  8. Just happened to me again too on 12/11/11....will be my 3rd time in less than a year!!

    Someone tried to use the card at 2 online computer supply sites. Joke was on them as even though I hadn't used the card in over a year I maxed it out on Thanksgiving weekend so there was only like $50 available and they were trying to charge over $1500 on it!

    Since my other card got hacked twice in 6 weeks back in the spring I've been trying to be very careful as to how I use my cards. I never use them anywhere that the card leaves my sight and I opened a new debit card just to use for candle supplies and any online purchases.....it never has anymore money in that account than what my purchase is for...which is a pain in the butt but worth it.

  9. Uggghhhh....that will be the 4th Blackberry Sage I have gone thru in 12 years!! Tradewinds, At Wix End, Flickers and now KY...even if KY does carry it not sure that kind of pricing is going to fit into the budget!! Not the news I was hoping for!! :-(

    Thanks for letting us know!

  10. AH/RE now sells KY's Sugar Corn Pudding, it isn't Kettlecorn, but smells a lot like it! Sugary and throws well in soy!

    I just started testing this today and have to agree...it really reminds me of Kettlecorn!!! Smells....soooo good!!

    If I decide to add it to my scents...I might just change the name!! :-)
