    Making of these sink fresheners

    in Wickless

    Posted

    Thanks so much, didn't think to check prior posts. Duhhhh:o Now, all I have to do is find the bags to put them in. I think they are an extremely neat idea and something a lot of people would use. If anyone knows where the bags are, please let me know!

    Thanks,

    I have seen so many people utilizing these sink fresheners and they seem to be a great idea and sell fairly well. The problem is I have no idea how to make them>?? Are they similar to crystal potpourri? Please let me know or direct me to somewhere I can find the directions to make these??

    Thanks,

    Hi guys, A little help would be great here. A customer called and asked if I had this particular scent and I am not sure if this is just a combo of 2 eo's mixed together by myself or if there is a fragrance out there actually called this. Tried to go through prior threads on here but unsuccessful in my search! TIA for the help...

    in Fragrance Discussion

    Posted

    Hi there, I just wanted to chime in and let you know I got a great orange blossom fragrance from Cierra Candle Supply. It was GREAT and I sold all ny candles. It is a lighter, more mild fragrance though. I just have not had an opportunity to purchase more. We better hurry though as Cierra is closing:cry2: very soon. They are having a 30% off sale currently. Good Luck in your search!

    Candles vs. Chocolate Delivery

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    Hi everyone, We could certainly use some help (any advice would be greatly appreciated) We had a jewelry store call us because they had purchased our candles at a craft show and really enjoyed them. They have a VIP program currently in which twice a month, they have a box of chocolates delivered to all the VIP clients who had birthdays or anniversaries that month. She is very interested in switching to our candles instead of the chocolates. I have no idea how much to charge her per candle. Do I make it like a wholesale account? Should I make a minimum quantity and price to order? She has not given me too much information as to what they pay now. We also would have to get with a printer to have her colors and Store information placed on the candles which also costs more money. Should I sit her down and speak to her more specifically before quoting her or what?? HELP!!!!:undecided

    Aroma Rocks/Crystal Potpourri

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    Hi guys, I have been reading a few of the previous threads on here and am having some difficulty learning how to make these. I purchased solar salt from Lowe's and I already have coloring for candles and fragrances. I guess my confusion is how much color I put and some times at the craft shows, the people have rocks that look like there are 2 different colors in 1 basket but with the same fragrance? Do you just color them differently and put the same fragrance in? Last question is how much fragrance to put per pound of rocks? Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated!

    TIA.....:D

    Joy Wax question...

    in General Candle Making Discussions

    Posted

    There was one batch I used quite some time ago that was phenomenal and I thought I had found that miracle wax. The next batch I received was so horrible. They stated they were aware of it and would send me out 2 more cases and those were terrible too. After reading all the info on here about the problems people have had with this wax, I decided to call it quits. I tried them for 4 months and was extremely dissatisfiedsantacry

    Leather Scent

    Hi everyone, need a really good leather scent for the joywax that I use. Also, I just purchased a 10 lb slab of GL 70/30 to see how that works so any suppliers you can give me that have a great leather would be appreciated. Thanks;)

    OK Guys ...really need advice!

    The owner of a nice upscale restaurant chain approached me at my craft fair and was interested in having my tealights placed in his restaurants. He currently has tealights and would like to switch to mine but here is the dilemma. When the busboys are cleaning the tables, the wax spills over the edge and gets on stuff. He wants to know if I can get tealights with a bigger lip or that are a tad bit taller to hold the wax in better. I just have standard plastic tealights now. Anyone have any ideas or would it be better to maybe use a votive container and only pour halfway....This is a HUGE account..any advice is appreciated. Thanks :D

    Joy Wax/IGI 6006

    I just got a horrible 2 cases of Joy Wax from NG and when I called and spoke with Melissa, she was very cordial in stating that they had the previous wax back in and were sending me out the 2 cases immediately. She stated the wax may vary a small bit in consistency but she personally admitted that this particular wax which I received was horrible and was very apologetic. The 1 case I had prior to this incident was awesome and worked fantastic in my candles and with fo's. Good Luck to you no matter what you choose to do....:D

    Help Please!!!

    in Vegetable Wax & Beeswax Candle Making

    Ok guys, here is the situation. I have a craft show in 2 weeks and have some products I was working on. Everything was going smoothly until the wax I needed came in. I purchased 2 50 lb cases of Joy Wax from NG and they were working great IN THE PAST. When my new order of the same wax from the company came in, the wax was completely different. The lady told my husband to add 1 oz Crisco per pound of wax and everything would be fine. The candles I have made with this are absolutely HORRIBLE and the Crisco did not help t all. I really do not know what happened and I am so frustrated! What wax do you use that has the even burn of soy and has a great hot throw????? Please help because I am 2 weeks away from a craft show and have a lot of work to do.
