I would be offering them my wholesale pricing only. 144 candles wouldn't qualify for a wholesale discount (in my business). Considering they are a huge brewing company, I doubt they will ask for one either. If they do, I'd simply say that their order size doesn't qualify for any discount on your wholesale price. In the meanwhile, you may want to think about whether you want to offer a discount and at what $ level. FYI, my wholesale candles accounts have never asked for a wholesale discount -- and their orders are typically in amounts over $5K each time. Congrats! Sounds like a fun account!

Exactly. It's a Federal Offense.

Scratching head, and pondering possible motivation for a NO answer? That said, how would you even know? <heading off to plot purchase...>

Damn fine work, Top.......damn fine! :highfive:

Sorry for your challenges. If you can't do the B&B, perhaps you could try your creative hand at candles? EDITED TO ADD: I didn't read your post correctly. LOL. I see you are already making candles.

WOW............Merry Christmas to you! LOL Should we start keeping our eye on the Classifieds? LOL

Lovely!

Tamtam -- I don't know where you are located, but Brambleberry (WA) sells SFIC bases.

I agree. There is no way you can avoid some shrinkage. Because of the water content, you will have a certain amount of evaporation that can't be avoided (even if your soaps are wrapped). My soap often sits for a week or more before the logs are cut and wrapped, and I live in a high humidity climate. My studio sits one block off the ocean.

Raising hand for #2. I would save the cow-over-the-moon for a kids line if you ever do one.

Excellent job! Very creative!

Looking at your business name, I like the raffia better than a ribbon or cord. If you do decide to use raffia, be sure you use the synthetic kind if you are planning to wholesale. The real thing takes quite a beating in a retail environment. Ask me how I know. LOL. BTW, the jar and candle look lovely!

Georgia, those are simply adorable!

Exactly what I was gonna say! I LOVE the jar with it's random swirl pattern! Great job!
