  1. Great job. It's so nice when it all comes together. Time and patience is the key. I'm still working on my logo. It's definitely a learning process.
  2. What a great job. Your colors are so nicely blended. I'm going to try to make some of those rustics. This will be my first time, so I'm hoping they look just as good. Thanks for sharing. I'll post mine if I have as much success as you did.
  3. Oh my, they are beautiful. I'm still a virgin on rustics, but I hope when I attack that pleasure mine come out just as nice. Great job!
  4. I have to agree with the others that this really isn't a business to be singing those tunes. Not a business to be totally dependent on for a family income. Although I sing them too, I have sold candles for other company's for 10 years. Made some money, but wanted my own. I now have a web business for two years and it is slow, up and down, sometimes you get orders and sometimes you don't. One thing I will say on a positive note. I love, just love making candles. I focus on particulars. Always testing, then making for sale once it passes the test. If you do to much you wont be able to concentrate on being an expert on one. Maybe you should look for your niche. What candle do you love making? Narrow the choices down. Here's how I started. Just candles, just one type of wax, just certain sizes, stand alone or jars, occasional specialties, and a lot of freebies to start. Keep going, think positive, if you believe in what you're doing you'll make it. One more thing, along with getting a business started, the legal aspects of it all is a big headache. I' in NY and it is a challenge to say the least. Two years in and I'm still going and I'm still loving it. Now I have a web site, a vending booth in a market, and I do home demonstrations. This is my full time hobby. Making money and loving what I do. I think its all worth it. Good Luck
