Hi everyone, I am about to start making candles and I live in an apartment (renting). Does anyone here that makes candles live in an apartment? I was wondering if you had to inform your insurance company that you were doing so, and if you did were you allowed to? Here is why I am worried. I know that this probably won't be for quite a while (you do not have to lecture me well intentioned person, as I have read about a million threads outlining this, lol) but I intended to someday sell my candles online if I really enjoy making them and I start producing some really nice ones. To do this I would need product liability insurance, which means I would need to be an official business. Then I read my lease agreement and it states that if I want to run any kind of business or trade in my apartment, I would have to get the landlord to sign an agreement. Then I realized I would then have to inform my insurance company that I insure the apartment through, and they could say "no way jack" and even possibly refuse to provide insurance for me anymore (as I've read here on the boards)! This broke my heart because I was really set on doing this. Then I wondered if I am even allowed to just make candles for fun here. Thought I'd ask, anyone else in a similar situation? Also I was wondering if insurance companies are really strict about soap making too, or is it just candles? Thanks kindly and much love, wood_elf
