  1. My Tarts have become very popular and I am considering selling the warmers.

    Which do you find are the most popular the combo warmers, plug ins, electric or tea light? I personally like tea light but that may not be everyone.

    If I do get electric I want to make sure they have enough wattage etc.

    And curious the best places for wholesale pricing, I've looked at JD Wholesale they are the only ones I find with good pricing, but they are a bit boring looking.

  2. Wow Great Ideas those sound awesome:cheesy2:

    sounds like tea would be a great way for me to use up some of my

    seldom used citrus and floral f.o's

    And hopefully create some nice blends:)

    Are you using the Scent Works Black Tea, does it have a good throw in parasoy do you know? With all the raves I imagine it does.

  3. I personally don't understand tea scents not my cup of tea, no pun intended. So I dont' know where to start. I usually avoid anything with tea in the name. But many of my customers are requesting tea blends.

    Looking for strong throw in para-soy as well as some for B&B

    What are some great Tea Blends, aka fruity teas, floral tea

    or even plain teas etc

    I have read Iced Kenon Black Tea was good to blend with has anyone tried

    that with success, say could you make Raspberry Tea with it??

  4. I ordered the creme brulee and it is strong.

    This creme brulee smells very simular to kY Creme Brulee

    No chocolate of carmelized notes to it

    while I find both Candlescience and Peaks Creme Brulee to have

    a yummy carmelized note to them but the throw is better with Starville

    It depends on what type creme brulee you like, I like to mix

    the starville with Peaks or CS to get the carmelized goodness I like

    with the strong throw.

    I also ordered the Mexican Vanilla and it too was strong so I suspect

    many of the oils are super strong wish they had a sampler!!

    Hope this helps

  5. Placing my first order to try the Buttercream, is it still good I think I read somewhere it might have changed?

    I'm also considering

    Coco Mango

    Burnin love cinnamon is this a red hot cinnamon or bark like?

    Butterscotch Ripple

    Butterscotch Brulee

    Moon Pie

    Sugar Cooke is this different from Peaks?

    Also considering

    Marshmallow Ambrosia

    Candy Corn

    Vanilla Cream - has anyone tried this one?

    Thanks for any recs

  6. I wanted to update my opinions on the Primera.

    Well now that I've figured this thing out I could not live without it.

    I love it the colors are so vibrant and I've just discovered I can order extreme waterproof labels. I need these for bath items.

    I was scared to even try the round labels for a long time but once I did it really wasn't that bad. Once you figure out the crazy alignment system they have and make notes of the alignment for each label size this thing is just awesome.

  7. Oh I'm sorry I didn't know you were in Italy.

    go ahead and use the food coloring it will work, add until you get the color you want . Your not putting water in the bath bombs are you, hope not

    Just add the color drops and knead it into the mixture, once you have the color you want, then just over fill your mold and then push it close wiping of the excess.

    I personally don't use witch hazel

    but I do rub oil into my molds to make the bomb release easily.

  8. You could but the colors wont' be very vibrant and also the water in the reg food color may cause a bit of a reaction. I have used these before and it does work but the color is not vibrant

    I would go to walmart and get some wilton's icing colors these gel colors work really good

    they come in singles or in boxes of basic colors

    Just use a toothpick to grab the color and put it in a little at a time until you get the color you want

    These are my prefered colors over anything

    good luck :)

  9. I'm looking to replace the goatmilk and honey cream base from WSP and I noticed that Jody's had a base by the same name. I wonder if it is the same thing? Anyone know:confused:

    I'm so angry about this new shipping fiasco I have to find alternatives

    Candles Supplies has the same body mist incase anyone needs to find that.
