    Odor Eliminating Candle Label for Animal Groomer

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    Keep the votes coming.....thankyou!

    I was going to actually use both labels for the same groomer but now that I think about it, I have a veterinarians office who is interested in carrying the pet odor eliminator candles so if everyone goes for #3, I'll use the other one for the vet's office!    Geesh I have about 5 new accounts, and with my sickness geeze I'll be working up to the end....lol

    Odor Eliminating Candle Label for Animal Groomer

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    Well, I have my candles all made and ready to go.  Did a dozen of them just to get the candles in the door to this dog/cat groomer in town.

    So now I have my labels all designed so now I need to know which one, so need your advice here. These are "odor eliminator" candles.....  You pick and let me know and I will know then as I love them both.   Of course Zazzle won't be all over the labels as shown here.

    Picture 1 and 2 are the same.   The only thing different is the font color of the fragrance name

    Do you like the font in the green in the fragrance or the white font????????????????/

    THIS ONE HAS THE WHITE FONT.

    Beautiful as always 

    probably a dumb question but having never made soap myself does the glitter stick on you when you use it or does it wash off easily?

    only asking because with some certain makeup’s I can’t get the glitter off for nothing and it ends up in my eyeballs every time 😂

    That would be me too, glitter in the eyeballs.....lol

    Please help me pick 6 scents

    Those labels look great Trapp.  I love the way the cancer ribbon leans to the right.  Very fluid that compliments the font.

    I almost always use a standard vanilla if I have to choose 6 or 8 scents.  My safety scent around here.  Don't you use Vanilla Voodoo?

    Actually Arch I was contemplating using a Vanilla as I think it really is a staple in any collection but the reason you never see me listing a Vanilla is because I have a very hard time with the color because they always turn color to a yellow because of the flourescent lighting in these shops as all of them have that lighting.   The candles just look terrible and I always use UV inhibitor but still my vanillas always turn from natural to yellow.   But yes, I agree with you about putting a vanilla in there.   I have one store that would return everyone that I would make even when I explain to her what inevitably is going to happen and it's just not worth it to me.   And yes, I'm the Vanilla Voodoo person.   But ever since I tried Fillmores French Vanilla a few weeks ago for the fast throw it gave so this one is now a part of any collection I do.   It's even faster than Vanilla Voodoo in throwing but I love my VanillaVoodoo.

    I don't know why, but I am struggling to find lids for the universal Libbey containers.

     

    I only see silver or bronze as options.

     

    Containers:

    Does anyone have dupes or a known source where there are more choices for the tumbler look?

     

    She is terrific at links that is for sure and super fast.....I don't know how to even post a link.

    Please help me pick 6 scents

    in Fragrance Discussion

    I just received my new cancer labels for a line of candles I'm creating for cancer for my apple orchard account and they are just lovely.

    So now please help me select 6 scents if you had the choice to pickout.   I have a couple hundred but I want to do this collection in a limited amount and that would be 6 scents.   I can't make up my mind what I want.    This is what I was thinking.   But maybe I need something different.

    I was thinking maybe 1 in a bakery, 1 in a pine, 1 in a spa - clean cotton scent, 1 in fresh/floral, 1 in earthy or mannish, and  1 in something else.

    I came up with:   Macintosh Apple

                                   Peach Nectar

                                   Balsam Fir

                                   Lemon Pound Cake

                                   Caramel Tobacco  (Tobacco in the name of the scent might not be good for a candle I'm thinking)

                                   Autumn Flannel

                                   Basil - Sage - Mint

                                   Lemon Verbena

                                   Daffodil and Fresh cut Grass (this is a beautiful blend I make)

                                   Lux Linen

                                   Pineapple Cilantro

    Oops I have 10.....see, this is too hard for me....

    Here is my label.

    Precise pouring

    in Wickless

    Posted

    I make lots of small embeds and those little cups are great.    Like she said you need to learn to move fast as you are pouring the wax is solidifying.  After each pour I have a paper towel held right under the pour lip and I quickly wipe after each pour to stop the wax from running down the little pourer,,,,,,,,,,,it can be done, but has to be done very swiftly.

    A tabletop easel for new product introduction to store

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    Since I'm debuting melts in a tin, this will be a new product for my apple orchard account and I came across a tabletop easel in an 8x10 size that Zazzle makes along with my labels and I thought this would look nice sitting on top of the shelf unit where the melts would be.    I thought it would be a good marketing strategy and wanted to get opinions on what I designed.
