  1. these are great to use if you do candle parties. Everyone always takes the pens
  2. I would go up a wick size. This scent seems to give me problems in the winter so I always wick up on this scent
  3. Even candlewick can box up the wrong wicks. How do I know? It happened to me in October. I thought I was crazy. Had to replace over 500 candles.(That was not fun and who knows how many candles I sold that had the bad wicks in them.) When candlewick tested the wicks they told me they were CD-10 not CD-12 and that they were sorry. Well that just pissed me off but what are you going to do??? I still buy from them I just test every new batch of wicks I get from them.
  4. they still need to finish drying. But I think they came out cute It was a pain to make the head pieces.
  5. try pumpkin cheesecake from BCS
  6. fillmore sells them they are 3.39 per case or 312 if you order a pallet Fillmore Containers Wholesale Glass Jars
  7. Pallet of wax is 1800 lbs of wax. A pallet of jars is 356 cases depending on what supplier you buy them from, this is for the 8oz JJ
  8. That is all included in the price. I add an extra .10 to the wax and .10 to the scent to cover electric, paper towels
  9. yes shipping is included in that price. If I did not have any shipping it would only cost me $1.25 to make the candle. This is for a 8 oz jelly jar.
  10. Just thought this would be interesting to see how different everyone's cost is to make the same candle. I buy all my supplies in bulk price also includes shipping Jelly Jars with rust lids .40 Wick .07 Wax .38 Scent .59 Dye .01 Labels .15 Total $1.60
  11. Don't worry about the rain just make sure you have weights for your tent. The best show I ever did was in the rain. I mean it really rained we were getting 4 inches of rain an hour. :mad: It was hell but it mad people come in the tents.
  12. I know this is a stupid question but, anybody know how long they should be? I'm using a custom wick builder and I have no idea of the length. :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2
  13. Has anyone found a crumb cake scent that works well in soy??:rolleyes2
  14. I only use liquid dye. I used peaks red liquid dye to get that color. The only thing you also need to do is wick up 2-4 sizes. :highfive:
  15. I just wanted to share a Pic of my daughters wedding favors. They still need to be boxed and wrapped.
  16. I have never done a show at a winery but one of my whole sale accounts it a wine store and the sell vineyard like its going out of style. I can't sell one but they sell out as soon as they get the order in. Funny how things work. Good luck at your show.
  17. If you are paying $625 with the drapes and carry case that is a good price.
  18. where is the best place to buy these from? Thank you Barbara
  19. Thats a very good price for a 10x10 space. Do they also charge a % of the sale or just a booth fee?
  20. I have a funny story about coloring candles. I made candles for a bridal shower the colors were black and white, they wanted them scented orange chiffon cake. So I made white orange chiffon cake candles with black lids. I used the same scent I always use just no orange dye. The following week I got 10 calls looking for the new vanilla orange cake candles. At first I did not know what these people were talking about. Then someone told me she received a candle as a shower favor. I told all these people its not a new scent just no color was added it is the same scent as the orange ones. Well they did not believe me so now I make 2 candles one orange called orange chiffon cake and the other one white call orange vanilla cake. They really believe they smell different. Just thought that was funny.
  21. yes they have both at the walmart I shop in they are in the craft department and both have lids. The small ones are 1.99 and the deeper ones with the lid are 2.49
  22. Try a cotton 60 or 62 for a 16oz mason jar . They work really well in that jar. The HTP 1212 od 1312 is way to big for that jar.
