  1. I hate doing craft shows! I quit doing them; but then signed up for one in early August for December because they begged me needing a candle booth. It's a very very good show so I said yes. Been getting ready planning, ordering supplies, and have almost all candles finished (except a few more holiday scents). August went to the local festival and after looking at the candle quality offered decided that I will do next years...2 days 8am-8pm. Sucker for punishment I guess. Then found out a historic restaurant/inn here is holding a home business/craft expo Nov 5th. My candles are just sitting here already done...hmmm....so yep I signed up. I just keep seeing potential dollar signs in my head...lol! $$$$$ Only other candles will be Scentsy on Saturday. Now....quit signing up for craft shows!!!!!
  2. handlers who don't give a whoop about frosting; because my customers never have. I figured why give myself headache trying to fix something that wasn't broken. It adds a rustic charm that is unique to soy wax.
  3. Could someone describe this to me? Site doesn't give anything but its a fall scent. What notes are detected? Thanks
  4. Do a google search on "gel used in air fresheners". Bottom of page: Novagum Hydrocolloids by Lubrizol
  5. Aroma Haven/Rustic Escentuals - 2 fragrances your choice
  6. I'm trying to eliminate suppliers and also trying Filmore's since I use their jars. Seems every time I try narrowing down suppliers I just end up with a few scents from a new group of different suppliers...lol!
  7. All tested in 415 wax - votive size Nutmeg Ginger - Great CT, HT not as strong; but nice spice scent Cranberry Plum - Great Ct and HT. Love this scent! Cedar Garland - Great Ct and HT. Really like this one Lavender Sage, Rosemary - Great CT. Ht not as strong. Undecided on this one so far Caribbean Dreams - Ct great. HT nice but not as strong as I expected (looking to replace WYW Island Kola Nut) Warm Vanilla Caramel - Great CT and HT. Def smell the caramel; but softer Daffodil - Great CT and HT. Love this one too. These I have in the bad HT throw section. CT great in all: Iced Cinnamon Bun light Cinnamon Cider (Bummer - CT is so yummy!) light to none Citrus Spruce - seems like I got no HT on this one Apricot Freesia - Lovely fragrance - HT just light Creamy Chai Latte - surprisingly very little HT Mandarin - nothing I do have a bit of candle nose, so please let me know if you got different results. In particular I would love to get Cinnamon Cider, Apricot Freesia to work and Carribean Dreams and Lav, sage, Rosemary better HT.
  8. Filmore Odor Eliminators: All tested in 415 wax...votive. (note I also have a bit of a candle nose). Rosemary/Thyme - CT good. HT - very light. Leaves a subtle hint behind. Not so you would notice right off...just there. Mandarin - CT good, HT - very faint smokey smell. Olive Tree - CT good. HT - light (more than RT above). Leaves a pleasant yet subtle hint behind. You know when you go in someone's bathroom and it just smells clean; yet no cleaning smells apparent? Kinda like that in terms of scent throw.
  9. I am sort of confused. Odor eliminators...in reality shouldn't they not smell? Are they supposed to give a strong scent throw or just subtley mask the bad aroma. I am testing Filmore's 3 odor eliminator fragrance oils and they are very light. Kinda gives a back scent to the room (not sure how to describe it).
  10. Try adding a bit of vanilla to straight cappuccino.
  11. What is the minimum phone plan you need to be able to use Square up or Intuit?
  12. I have my products in 2 different locations of a store. In one I sell more melts. In the other, more jars. They are probably 25 miles apart. I still find many people do not know what a melt/tart is.
  13. Many shows hold them as fundraisers for organizations, school groups, etc. Non-profit is just that...no profit...just expenses covered and then donate the rest to the organization.
  14. I just ordered a sample from Bittercreek (BNL).
  15. Not sure what you mean by soapy smell. I don't care for straight lavender and I love Lav Basil WYW. It's nice fresh and herbaly.
  16. Gingerbread Latte Pumpkin Cappuccino Iced Apple Strudel Spiced Cranberry Pumpkin Cornbread Fall Harvest
  17. I agree...shipping info needs it's own page. It looks lovely though!
  18. My dad has a b/w laser printer he bought at a garage sale for $100. It worked great for a while. Now it thinks there is paper stuck inside. Dad has taken it apart and found nothing. So it sits there also! He mentioned the other day he needs to see if it can be fixed. Me...I want a color laser printer.
  19. I get a notice from UPS when they have received through the internet that there will be a package shipping. This does not mean it is on it's way. The person shipping still has to get the physical package to UPS. Some places they don't get around to the actual drop off until a couple days later. Mostly it's been through the classifieds here; but I understand that it's not always easy for them to drop everything and run to the shipping depot. It sounds to me like they did the paperwork but did not get around to shipping the package any time too quickly.
  20. WYW is great! I have been selling this for a few years and it is one of my most popular scents. But I am discontinuing it because it just costs too much. It would be nice to find a dulpicate.
  21. My dad tried refilling his cartridges at one point; but discovered he didn't get as many uses out of them. I get pretty good usuage out of my canon pixma. I am estimating .07 per label (the ink alone) right now. I run that sucker a long time after it tells me to change the cartridge!
