    Cool ! I am tempted but I don't know if it might be to big for me as I'm just beginning.

    Well you might be seeing the original post was in September.

    I do CPOP but didn't know that is is considered HP. I agree with Wildcrafter that as long as your soap has saponified it is safe to use. I do mine in a mold that has dividers , but I still let them sit at least 2 weeks just to let them get harder. I don't like the feel of soft soap. I do like the display of logs and I saw Wildcrafters display when she posted about being on her local TV station. Her display looks fantastic and would draw most people to her table just to look at all her soaps.

    I saw ice cube trays at the dollar store with ginger bread men, plain.

    Those colors are just perfect for fall, I really love the looks of the soap! Great Job!

    If you don't get satisfaction with Paypal, I'd go to my Credit card company and have them retract the payment.

    I would tend to agree with a bedroom candle I would want the flicker of a flame. I was thinking of the cookie jars warmers would be in a kitchen or even the votive size in a family room or living room. I 'm gonna hold on these for now, seems like they are not appealing to many people. Thanks

    Thanks for your comments. I am petrified of making a candle, but I have decided to buy one case of jars and try a para/soy blend and see if I can get it wicked right with a lite color & not to spicy heavy scent. I know it takes a lot of testing which translates into lots of $$$. I guess I'll stick with tarts till I get this figured out. Thanks again

    I might consider doing a test market , but I am a bit discouraged as it seems these are not good sellers. I only bought a few of the bigger cookie jar warmers so it might just be for gifts at this point. I'm like everyone else, ya hate to invest a ton of money into something that sounds great but doesn't sell. I'll think about setting out one of the large and one of the votive size and see what people say, it'd be my luck that 50 people will want them!

    Geez really that stinks!! I really like the idea of no wick as that is what I have used with my candles when they get about 1/2 done. I wonder if I show them working it would make a difference? I wanted to sell these next to my soaps, but maybe not. I don't have a lot invested in this just in case so I could use them for gifts right now. Thanks Candlelady for sharing your experience.

    Holy Cow!! I love your cow candle!! I love the tarts too! They look good enough to eat. If you sell your silicone molds I would stand in the line to get a few. ;-) Great job on the packaging as well. I think your whole line looks very professional.

    Nobody sells these? Just want to let you all know, I did do a search on wickless containers & jars but my questions were not answered. Thanks

    I am wanting to check the market in my area for wickless jar candles. I'm going to sell the burners as well. My question is what do you all charge for the larger containers and which jars do you think works best in the burners? Thanks in advance. Let me clarify the burners I'm wanting to sell are the cookie jar candle warmers. I've heard certain jars break, so if anyone has any experience with this type of burner, which containers work best.

    The east coast is pretty big. Camden Grey is in Miami. I think The Lye Guy is in NY. Aloe Vera gel or juice? I get my juice at Walmart but that is because I don't need 5-25 gallons. HTH

    I just poured some 4794 tart and some were fine and other had terrible dimples. Can you tell me why? My friends thermometer was broke so we don't know what temp we poured the undimpled ones at. Is there a certain temp. to pour this to reduce dimples? KY's tart wax dimples too, just not as much. Thanks.

    I put the 4794 into a glass trash bag and drop it a couple of times on the pavement outside, breaks easliy and the glass type trash bag doesn't rip or tear. Carol

    That's what I said too.
  18. cdesousa5
    Why not put a votive in a small glass holder & see if that works

    Everything looks wonderful!! I have to find that flower ice cube mold and the wilton one also!! You said you are outside the USA would you happen to be in Aussie Land?
  20. cdesousa5
    Where did you get those cute little flowers for your syndet bars? All your stuff looks wonderful!

    I think that is awful that the suppliers don't not find our business important enough to let us know of changes in a suppliers of their products!! I wonder how they would like it if one of their best selling items was changed on them & they were never told? Seems to me suppliers are not understanding where there bread money comes from when they do those sort of things.
  22. cdesousa5
    That's what I thought.
  23. cdesousa5
    Your welcome! Ya see it worked and you even got an order!!

    Has anyone used this IGI 1284 for tarts? What would be the difference between the IGI 4794 & this one beside the fact that one has additives and the other doesn't?
  25. cdesousa5
    Thanks Kristy. I'll look into the IGI 4794 and see how I like it.
