  1. Aria007, you are exactly right. The one she mentioned was the church one that had three wicks and counted down. Thanks for everyone's help. You guys are awesome!
  2. I was still pouring christmas scents last night to restock the store since we were hit hard yesterday. Over last year we are doing about 800% more in sales. I cant wait for the holidays to be over so I can get caught up and replace my stock.
  3. I had someone ask me for a candle that has about three wicks and I guess they use to use it in churches and it has numerals on the side to count down the day. Has anyone heard of this?
  4. Im sorry but I think you are incorrect. If you are able to eat it it should have FDA approval for the ingredients. Here is a link to the place that sells the colors http://www.coastalscents.com/cfwebstore/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=9
  5. Also, if you use SAO you may want to put a "nut allergy" warning on it as well.
  6. I read somewhere before that you could use the Wiltons (I think cake frosting colors in bath bombs) I think I have the name right.
  7. Walmart has a four pack of the Libbey wine glass for 4.00 and they are thick and work well.
  8. I have always used the burgundy liquid color for Spiced Cranberry
  9. MizBizz, I know, that is why I said shortly. Thanks though
  10. The jar store has these but they are not as thick as illuminations but work well. I wil probably have a few cases of the 16oz and 12oz for sale shortly if you are interested Also the largest these come in is 15oz. That is also the largest Illuminations carries. The smallest is the 5oz
  11. 1274 is a mottling wax which they call a snowflake appearance
  12. candlewic has a sale through today that has 30% off aluminum molds with 70.00 purchase. And they are on the east coast.
  13. We have been so busy trying to fill our orders and stock the store. Once we think we are getting caught up we get another order that puts us backI work a regular full time job come home and start making candles and b&b and work until about 1am every night. I cant wait for the holidays to be over. My biggest competitor went out of business and now we are starting to get their business which we thought would be gradual and they bombarded us.
  14. Well at Immuminations they tell yo uthat the wax is food grade paraffin. And Yankee owns Illuminations. I wonder if that is what they mean.
  15. I need to find a place on the West Coast that has the Reg/Green shred besides Papermart. They are out of stock until next week. And Uline does not have the mix. Can anyone help? Thanks
  16. No offense, but have you ever heard of anyone getting hurt from these. If they are done and labeled correctly then you should have a problem. Of the several hundreds I have sold I have never once heard of anyone getting hurt. So when you say dangerous are you saying thatin general as a regular candle can be dangerous as well. It just makes me wonder all these people bashing this probably have never once tried it
  17. There is a younf lady that I know that teaches classes in Point Richmond. Really nice area, so dont confuse it with Richmond, Very different. Her name is Lori and the place is called The Nova Studio. her web site is www.thenovastudio.com She isnt teaching the hydrosols but she teaches quite a few of the classes. If you want to learn basics as a starting point she is great. That is where I learned a few things and then went back and expanded on what I learned. I probably have taken 6 or 7 classes from her and am looking to take a few more on the bath and body section. If you go tell her I sent you.
  18. I have the opportunity to take a class that will teach me to make hydrosols. Do ou think this would be beneficial? Does anyone make and sell hydrosols? do they sell well?
  19. I want to make MP soap with black swirls. Can I use Black oxide or is there something better that I should use. Thanks
  20. When I went to Ross they had a 6 pack for 15.00. and they had several different kinds.
  21. before we got our merchant account we used propay and it wasnt bad. It was pretty easy to input the information. We used the knuckle buster and then came back and transfered the information over.
  22. would 100mm or the 140 be too big? I would love to make them like that but dont know if that would be too big for some.
