  1. I have been looking at their molds for sometime. The only problem I have is it is from China. I am trying very hard to buy only American made products. I would rather help our country than China. :tiptoe::tiptoe:

  2. Steph, sorry about your situation. I think we all have gone through stuff like that. As for Etsy and labels, I do have my Etsy address on my labels so hopefully they will order again. Or if you have a website then I would put both addresses. It sure can't hurt.

    Good luck!

    So, long story short, I used to make wickless soy candles and melts, started a business and loved it! I ended up moving a few years ago and did not continue the business when I moved, but decided last fall that I wanted to get back into it. So, I tell everybody, they all loved my candles before, so I was excited. Late fall, I find out from my brother that his wife was thinking about selling candles. I was a little mad, reminded him that I've ordered wax and fragrance oils, and that I'm getting back into that. Well, guess what???? She started selling Scentsy in December and after I made my Etsy website, he bought her a Scentsy one. Nobody in my family understands, which is why I posted here. I needed to vent to fellow chandlers who would understand. Thank you for lending an ear!

    On a side note, I've been testing my wax, am ordering 2-3 new fragrance oils tomorrow and will hopefully have some up on Etsy soon. We are extremely busy with work and sports, so I have not had a lot of time to get this done.

    I do have a few questions on the business aspect if someone can help. I set up a site on Etsy. What do I need to do as far as the candle labels? Do I put my Etsy shop and if so, then do I need to register my business? Last time I made the candles, I just registered as a business. I would prefer to keep it simple if at all possible.

    Thank you again!
