  1. I use the Pink Sugar Cookie...cant keep it. I have renamed after my MIL but still it is a great scent. It sells like hot cakes for me. But it is not bowl ya over in your face strong, but it is a nice strong scent and to me, a good long lasting scent.
  2. So are you willing to share where this bubbling base can be found?
  3. The red hot cinn I use smells just like the candy. I also get it from JBN...they have a great one! This is a good combo....promise!
  4. i use just by nature leather....best one I have found. And I also do the cinn and leather and call it red hot cowboy....sell it like crazy. mix it at 50/50. Both of mine...cowgirls n pearls and my red hot cowboy are top sellers for me. Lots curl their nose up when I tell them what is in it, then they melt or burn them and are pretty surprised at how well good they really smell! Give it a shot....bet you love it too!
  5. Does anyone have a very simple sugar scrub recipe that they can share with a newbie, having never made them before. Not new to candles at all but to soaps and scrubs I am. Would like one that moisturizes and does not have a ton of ingrediants, because I am not sure where to buy everything just yet. Not sure of the best of the bath and body suppliers. Thanks so much to anyone that feels like sharing~
  6. As I stated, we all have our own opinions, and the above is mine. As you obviously have yours...your entitled so am I. And maybe some are not being "mean" but they damn sure are snippy as hell when you do not agree with them, and it is not just this topic but many others on here. And no one is denying you your views or opinions, I think everyone should be able to post their views and opinions with out being called out. And I am very aware that I do not have to read any topic that bothers me, I appreciate you letting me know that.
  7. I think this topic has gotten out of hand and it seems like when someone disagree's with the majority they are called out and that is sad! I totally understand what sassy is saying as I do the majority of you. If it works for her great, and if it does not work for all of you then no harm no foul. But why keep it going and going and going. If you want to buy from Mr. Missy, then do it, if not then dont. But why must these topics get so snippy and mean??? Why must you call out and make snide remarks about who disagree's with you. This board is suppose to be about sharing information, chatting, and learning about the crafts we love so much. Not for fighting and arguing amoung each other. If we disagree, big freakin deal, not going to agree on everything all the time. The one thing I do agree with sassy on is that a mod will step in and delete something that mentions a sale, but will not step in and lock a thread that starts getting out of hand. That makes no sense to me. It is obvious that there is not much else that can be said about Mr. Missy's or who on here that will not buy from them again. I think it is time to let this go...geez!
  8. Well I got in on the sample sale and ordered 4 of the VBN from TN and all I can say is WOWZER!!!! That stuff is totally awesome smelling. And it seems that can be blended with just about anything. I am extremely impressed and have now ordered a few pounds of it, and also ordered the ulitmate vanilla from JS and a few others, they were equally as good to me. So looks like I have 2 more vendors to add to my list for oils...LOL Like I needed more to add to my fo addiction~
  9. UM NO!!!! I have spoken to Jason and to Dan...and not one time have I ever been told they were closeouts and when they were gone they were gone! And I can not find it on his site either. Maybe you are just getting more privledged information that we are......the ones that are buying and buying. But not me anymore.
  10. Not sure if we will hear anything else out of them. I have sent 2 emails to them as they sent me the email about the min order 2 times. And both emails I told they just lost me, and probably lots of others. And that they need to get their Sh.. straight! This constantly changes policy is making me dizzy... I tried them, and there were a few that I would love to keep permenant in my line, hopefully I can find a good alternative to them from one of my other suppliers, if not I will drop them. But I refuse to be forced to spend that much just to get a few oils from them, and this sort of business practice makes me turn tale and run for the hills!!!! And yes I know there are "I told you so's" going around. And you are entitled, but unless I experience the not so good stuff out of a supplier, I am going to give them a chance and try out their stuff. Now that I have had it, I wont go back!
  11. Thanks so much....just ordered samples from TN to check it out. I am going to order from JS on their vanilla whipped cream and that is why I wanted to know. i do not know of another place that has a decent priced whipped cream except them.
  12. I am looking for the more rich buttery bakery type one, not the perfumy one. I heard that JS and Tenn supp both have good ones. Which one is the best bakery one? Or is there another place I should check? Thanks so much!
  13. Hey Chris...thanks for that...I am looking for something truly unique. So maybe that is what I will do. I think I will get a few of the ones that JS carries and make some additions and see what happens.
  14. HHHMMMM....weird! Well all I know it I cant get my leather and a few other oils anywhere else. There's was hands down the best I ever tried. So we shall see what happens.
  15. I agree Melissa...I have had nothing but total professionalism from OOTBS and Michelle. And if I thought for one skinny minute that she was all about self promotion for herself, I would not have wasted my time or my products. I understand why anyone would be leary of a candlemaker, or any crafter being the owner of one of these sampler boxes. But if you really look at the site and at the forum, you can clearly see that it is so not about self promotion. And even on the other sites that Michelle owns, she is not at the top of the list either. She makes sure that the business' that use her services are on the top. I know this becuase I am considering using her directory and ad service. I like what she has to say on there and how she does it. I do hope that some of you will give this a try...you never know how it will help you unless you do. And they way I look at it, someone has to own this sampler box business, and candlemaker or not, Michelle is a great marketer and working hard to make sure that as many people as possible get these boxes. Besides, if you look at the list of the people who are in the boxes each month, several are repeats, so something is being done right and they are seeing a return on, or else it would just be a waste to keep doing it. JMO~
