  1. There seem to be a million of these a day and I've tried to avoid posting yet another one, but I'm at my wit's end. I thought I had a name but found out a few weeks ago that BBW had it trademarked. So I'm back to square one. I make soy candles and *mostly* natural bath and body products. My style is clean and simple. Not country or prim but not really sleek or upscale spa either. I had a logo in the works (that will obviously have to be redone once I have a new name) that had blue and tan in it, and I think I'd like to stick with those colors for the logo and eventual website. I don't want any misspelled words in the title or any overused words like "Scent" or "Creations". I'm not opposed to having "Candles and Bath" following the actual business name to clarify what it is I make. I also don't want my kids' names in the title because I plan to have more and don't want any future babes left out. I work in theatre and have been racking my brain looking for a theatrical business name. I've recently skimmed through more Shakespeare plays than is reasonable and read ridiculous quantities of literary quotes. Drama Queen came to mind, but it's trademarked for lotions and bath products already. Drama Mama is another one that I thought of and like, but I wonder if a name that "female" would drive away potential male customers. A friend suggested Center Stage, which is fine, but it just doesn't speak to me. Box Office? I'd worry that people would think I sell boxes. Maybe I'm being overly picky, but I hope to be using this name for many years to come and really want something I love! Any and ALL suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!
  2. You definitely have me not worrying about CD-8 being too big for my votives any more! You'll have to post if you end up with different results for different wicks!
  3. Gretchen, I'm surprised that the CD-10s are working well for your votives. I'm using FO in my Ecosoya PB votives and use either a CD6 or CD7 (or 8 in really heavy FOs). It's strange how different wicks and batches of soy seem to behave for different people!I have the same problem with tight fitting votive holders. I know that's what you're supposed to use, but I have a vast collection of votive holders and only 2 or 3 that are actually snug. I'm sure most other people have similar holders, so I try to test at least once in a slightly roomier holder to see how it will perform under those less-than-ideal circumstances.
