  1. When doing a fundraiser, When do you collect the money? If your group tells people that they don't have to pay until the products are delivered, does the organization pay you and then they get their money back when the customers pay them? Or do most organizationos (schools, churches etc) expect payment from the customers when they order? I maybe stumbling upon a fundraiser opportunity and want to make sure I understand this stuff.
  2. It's a little bright for me also. You scent of the month page is great though. Do you really put 8oz of wax in that jar?
  3. well, test burn #1= gb444 wax, htp126 wick, 7% fo....4hours the melt pool did not reach sides and the wick started to drown a little. Next size htp wick is htp 1212. That just sounds scary..but I guess I will try it if my other test burns don't work out..
  4. I use 444 and I use cd8 in a 8oz jelly jar and a htp 126 in a 12 oz jar....if that is any help.
  5. probably filled to the very top you could get 14oz of wax.
  6. I came across this jar at family dollar. Paid $1.00 for it. Is that a fair price for this kind of jar? What do you call this jar? Any one use this jar? thanks for any info
  7. I am jealous, I am here sitting making nothing.. = no $
  8. I didn't lay it on wax paper either. I mixed it in my container and covered and after 4 days still not hard. I did make another one per instructions and then added another scent, that one did get a little hard. So more FO may be a factor as well.
  9. I just went to CS and look at 4794 wax, I bought 60 lbs a few weeks ago at $74, now 60 lbs is $95 :confused::confused: I guess I better look at different wax or something.. any here use Paraffin Wax 140 from candlewic?
  10. has any one ever made candles in clay pots? Just wondering if they held up.
  11. $10,000-$20,000 <---if these people wanted to give me some help and tips on how to make that much, I will give you some off my profits
  12. that is like me..I don't know where to go or what to do. Founding a place to go is hard for me around my area. I have confidence in my products but the selling of them I don't know how to do.
  13. Has anyone tried this mixture in a dishwasher?
  14. thank you. My only concern with this is how to make sure it stays close during a shipment.
  15. don't get me wrong, I used a lemon scent and it did smell great. My first attempt was in my kitchen and the smell didn't really last that long. My second attempt I did it in my bathroom and I could smell it a few hours after..
  16. ok, I tried this yesterday. I used a lemon scent. I don't really get it. People really buy this stuff? I filled my sink half way with hot water, put in some of the mixture, it bubbled for about 3 or 4 seconds I guess and the scent doesn't last all that long. Does this sound right or am I doing something wrong? If i follow the recipe it makes approx. 24 oz right, if my math is correct?
  17. One of the reasons I asked this question was because for some reason, I can get a better hot throw with the jar than I can with a votive. (gb 444 vs igi 4794) AS far as the cost, well I can get the jar for about .60 a piece and not sure where I can get votive cups (besides walmart or joanne's ) and not sure how much they are. Let me ask this....can I pour my container wax (gb444) straight into my glass votive cups? Well I guess that is a stupid question...Any way, I biggest thing is the hot throw and I get a better one with the jar for some reason.
  18. oh crap, not sure how the pics got that big.....thanks for your input..
  19. If 2 votives and 1 jar ( jar has 2.5oz wax) were priced the same, which one would you buy or which do you think would sell the best?
  20. These are oob reviews for the following scents IMO: *= would not recommend **= Very weak ***=May work depends on your wax %fo hold ****=Not over powering *****=Highly recommended Camp fire-- This is incredible. Smells just like a smokey fire to me. ***** Frosted cupcake--very sweet, can smell a light vanilla *** Cake bake-- Smells very alcoholly to me * blackcherry-- Smells very good, **** Egg Nog-- Umm, I am not sure about this one, I can't get a smell feel for it. Doesn't really smell like any egg nog I have had. ** Candy Corn-- Smells very good, smells similar to a cotton candy fo I had from wsp. ***
  21. ok, how many pours pots do you have? 1 for each scent?
