  1. Thanks

    I should have checked this before I ordered it, Dang

    The Brighterscents one has no cinnamon and I need it bad, but its out of stock there and at gelluminations, I think they are the same company, not sure exactly but the sites are the same.

    Has anyone tried JDCandles funnel cakes. I think these are the only suppliers I'm aware of that have this scent.

    If anyone knows another let me know Thanks

  2. Sorry I should have said..

    It is Plumeria and Coconut mainly but smells out of this world good, it may contain other notes not sure.

    I noticed Daystar has Soap Silly's Intoxicating Coconut I think the name is which is supposed to be Plumeria and Coconut..

    Has anyone tried this one..

    Maybe I won't be able to find the Sweet Passion :(

  3. Do you think they prefer the tarts in the cupcake holders, or just regular scalloped?

    I switched to the cupcake tarts using the cupcake holders from KY, but you can't really smell the tart until you remove the tart..

    Another words I am wondering if the customer would be happier with a scalloped tart like I used to do ...As upon recieving the tarts the scalloped not in cupcake holders will have a stronger cold throw out of the bag... While I find I can barely smell the cupcake tarts until removing them from the holder..

    Infact I forgot to label some and could not tell which was strawberry and which was Pink Sugar...

    Do you think this matters?

  4. I'm with you Debra! I think this is happening alot also!! I have had several also that just were not the same great oils they were prior.. I'm in such fear of it now.. I'm avoiding large orders of oils at the moment..

    I wonder if this is from the manufacturer or the supplier.. and like you say they always say there is no change !! But when you have used an oil for a long time and have previous to compare you know when something has changed..

    These oils were already phaylate free

  5. I'm really happy with KY oils in my soy wax, I am wondering who else should I consider for this quality of oils..

    I have tried Milcreek already but am curious about others I hear about on the boards

    Candle Cacoon

    bluegrass

    Lonestar

    Scented Bean

    Berts

    AtWixEnd

    Or any others who you think have a simular quality oils for soy wax

  6. I'm currantly using KY Soy Tart wax blend.. I have also used Ecosoya PB

    However I have never tried a non Soy blend for tarts

    Has anyone had better luck with other waxes that don't contain soy?

    I'm curious as too the advantages or disadvantages to not using soy?

    Thanks

  7. Thanks.. I contacted Primera and they did have a printer driver for Vista :) , I downloaded it and now it works with Vista !!!

    Now I just need to find out if Printshop will work or not, the tech guy wasn't sure, he just knew it worked with Photoshop, Illustrator and MS Publisher.. None of which I have at the moment, and all of which would be a learning curve...

    I've read one comment that it worked with printshop and one that it didn't... I can't get any info on that.. I guess I'll have to buy it and find out, since its far less costly than Photoshop..

  8. Well the Primera came in, what a nightmare so far

    Well it will not work with my main computer, it is uncompatible with Windows Vista 64 bit.. :( So I had to hook up my old computer, which is slow just to be able to hook it up ..

    I wish that would have been mentioned before I purchased.

    And the label program it comes with is a joke, it will not even allow you to layer things. Its terrible, can't make a label with that... And the pro version is $500.00 :(

    Well thankfully I just read you could use this with Printshop, has anyone done this?

    My concern is, if I go buy Printshop etc.. then will it be able to print to the Primera automatically.. or will I have to do anything specific.? Also does anyone know if you can layer objects and set backgrounds in PrintShop ?

    I'm used to Avery which is super advanced compared to this basic program from Primera...:angry2:

    I'm crossing my fingers that Printshop will solve my problems..

    I planned to get some labels designed but in the meantime I have this thing and cant print a decent label on it, can't even set a background with it :angry2:

  9. I know I'm so excited its supposed to arrive tommorrow:rolleyes2

    I've been using Avery and Online labels waterproof ones for about 6 years now.. so this is a big change... I can't wait to see how they will look, I got the glossy labels... so no more non-glossy matte boring labels I hope!!

    I'm thinking of getting a designer to help me make them look really good! Since I'm design challenged..

  10. I have both so I just went to sniff, and the Candlescience is definately more what I would think creme brulee should smell like, has a caramelish sniff to it

    Ky's is different, not that I don't like it.. but the CS smells more like Laura Mercier Creme Brulee if thats what your looking for!
