    You did a very good job on your site. Easy to navigate, pics look well done, so overall i would say good job. Also, just FYI, but it works really well with the Mozilla/Firefox browsers...

    HOT ORANGE DANISH and ORANGE CLOVE.... these both sell fantastic for me

    Most crafters/chandlers I have talked to over the last year have noticed a dramatic drop in sales and its all due to the economy. Plus I have to agree with Pinetree on the fact that there has been a huge influx of people making candles and I think the public is just bored with it.... but it fluctuates, so maybe in a year or so, it will pick back up...

    In search for fluted tin pans. Colonial tin just emailed me that they no longer make or sell these. I think Irvins does, but am looking for wholesale if possible...... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I have used JOY wax for years. Even tho I am getting away from soy all together, I am extremely happy with it. It has awsome cold and hot throw, and burns very clean..... I would definately give it a thumbs up

    I use a 50/50 blend of OK6228 and J223. They come out awsome and the scent thro both hot and cold is very good. My best advice is to play around with it.... try different waxes and blends to see which you like best.... hth and good luck

    I use DIYeStores and I do the real time shipping. Basically what that means is that I am linked into the USPS shipping charts. As you build your site, you put the weights of each product in the description. As the customer clicks on an item to buy, the calculater estimates how much it will cost per weight. It is really easy to use. You can also just do a flat rate shipping..... say 0-15.00 will be 6.00..... 15.01 to 25.00 would be 8.00 etc etc....... does that make sense? lol..... its still early and im not fully functioning...lol.....

    I would definately say go for the flash drive. I have a smaller one that I use for home and work and I can not imagine ever using anything else. Get yourself a 1 or 2 gig flash and you should be set to go..

    I have been with DIY for over a year now and could not be happier. The customer service is awsome.

    I dont think that it would be a big problem. Maybe put just a few different items at the Exxon. That way you can have a wider selection at different area's... jmho........ good luck

    I definately give Shelly and her gang a double thumbs up. They are AWSOME.... have been with em for over a year now, and have nothing but good to say:yay:

    I also use DIY and have been very happy with the service. They have several graphics designers and if you dont like what they have, they can and will make custom ones for you..

    when I make my ornies, I always make sure there is a small hole and use some hemp as the string to hang them with.... maybe you could do the same thing, only make the ornie in a heart shape and then use the appropriate color ribbon..... just an idea..

    Lets see.... besides the candles of course, I dabbled in the B&B, but chose to stop.... my all time favorite hobby (besides candles) is stained glass.. I also do some beaded jewelry, Hemp jewelry. DW crochet's, cross stitches, latch hook, and absolutely ADORES miniture doll houses... I think thats it.....lol
  17. wvcandleguy
    I dont do jewelry as much as I once did, but Fire Mountian Gems has fantastic prices and they have thousands of different items.... hth
  18. wvcandleguy
    those look awsome... I wanna be just like you when I grow up.....lol.. keep up the good work

    that looks really cool.... I had a similar idea, but was gonna set a tealight mold in the gel as it was setting up... then remove it and place an actual tealight.... never got around to trying it, but now that itch is back, so guess im gonna have to now....lol..... good work..... keep us informed:highfive:

    I use 6228 for my votives and a blend of 6228 and J223 for my tarts (50/50)..... have had no problems and have great throw...

    The sooting problem could be the type of wick you are using, or it could be something as simple as not trimming it back to 1/4 in after your last burn...
  22. wvcandleguy
    ohhhhhhhhhhh ok.....think I understand now...lol.... gonna get some hurricane wax and start experimenting..... good thing about it is.... if I screw it up, it goes right back in the melting pot.......lol
  23. wvcandleguy
    could you post the link?
  24. wvcandleguy
    doesnt the sleeve keep it from being connected or does it set up better after you remove the sleeve?
  25. wvcandleguy
    ok.... now i have another question...lol.... i read the instructions from this site and was wondering..... is this a hollow tube or does it develop a bottom on it? I mean, I have the mold and sleeve, so when I take the sleeve out and dump out the remaining wax, does a bottom form or does it come out with the sleeve?
