  1. I just got their new one Grapefruit Watermelon and it is to die for!! at least OOB, I havent poured it just yet but plan on it in the next couple of days. ALso the Maduro is a very strong scent which also smells wonderful. The buttercream is very strong too. I am going up there in a couple of weeks so maybe I can smell ALL of them!!!
  2. I get a lot of supplies from Starville, and at first I felt that their customer service wasn't up to par. But the more I go and get things, the friendlier they are. I do believe they have gotten some friendlier people over there and things seem to be better. That is my opinion. I would be upset also if they sepereated my order and I had to pay 2 shipping charges, but I have ordered from people before and if it wasnt in stock then it just got deleted from my order no explanation and I would have to reorder. So I guess it is a trade out, if you really like the supplies you get from that company just learn to order early and dont run out !! That is something I have learned over the years of this business. IMO I would recommend Starville for anything! They have some great scents and better prices on some things. I would also recommend Wix n Wax. I guess I am fortunate I have 1 supplier in my town and 1 within 15 miles and another one about 25 miles. I do order things also and have to pay shipping which just eats me up to have to pay! Im sorry that Carol had a bad experience with them, might I suggest that you call them to see if they have what you need in stock. Good Luck and you should try their High Maintenance it is to die for!
  3. a really really good Mango, does anyone have some suggestions? TIA;)
  4. we get ours from Wix n Wax also, this is one scent we cant keep in stock and the cusomters have the best time with the name.
  5. Try Craftlister.com....I know you can get some free from them. Also check with your Chamber of Commerce and the surrounding areas you can find info from them and it is free
  6. We added Potpourri a couple of years ago, I have to say it really didnt do well here in Texas. However, the monthly show I do there is a vendor there that all she has is potpourri. I think that when a customer comes into your booth they look at your main product and maybe not. I know the potpourri I had was from Rachels Potpourri and was very nice. Another thing I think is how you package it. The one vendor that has it she has it out in Big Metal Buckets where it is out. We packaged ours, that may make a big difference.
  7. You better see if they have a contract that you have to sign. I have found that a lot of these companies keep you under contract, and if they do see if it is transferrable if you decide to get out of it. Thought I would pass this along
  8. I can check with the man I got these from to see if he has any that are a solid color...but it will be next weekend before I can get in touch with him. I got them from a man that has a wholesale business at my monthly show. The show is next weekend and I will see what I can do. Last time I went to look he had ones with pink around the top. Maybe he has something different now, that has been several months ago. I will keep you posted.
  9. We are doing great...going and growing like crazy. We really missed it also; I think it has been been rescheduled for sometime in July is what I am understanding. But dont hold me to that, one of our suppliers told us that a few weeks ago, but nothing has been posted on the website as of yet. It is great to see ya on here...everytime I see big pine cones I think of you! Keep in touch and I'll do the same... Michele
  10. Hey Thekla....are you from West Texas? This is Michele... we sat together at the TX Candle Conference...
  11. Here is a picture of the bath tubs...the measurements are 9" length, 4" width and 4" tall
  12. I order my business cards from Vista Print ...they are really reasonable and they do the work for you.
  13. I have quite a few of them. they are ceramic(cream color with a blue ring around the top) DH will take a pic of them today and when I get home from work I will attempt to post it. These are the same ones they used to have at Cracker Barell Gift Shops.
  14. How big were you looking for...I have a bunch, but they arent big, they are probably about 9-12 inches in length and not too sure about the height. I bought a whole bunch and was going to use them for my smelly jelly and now I just dont have room for them. They are in my storage closet waiting for a use. If you want I can measure them for you and let you know.
  15. Got my sample of Indonesian Teak today...can't wait to pour it! Thanks Brenda for such great Customer Service
  16. I also sent her email today requesting the Indonesian Teakwood...sounded really good. I also asked a few questions and the response was very quick. IMO Customer Service is a MUST, I will do business with anyone who treats the customer like they should. I can't wait t get my sample!
  17. I use Vanilla Bourbon by Cajun Candles and it is a pretty good seller for us. Very strong scent
  18. We use our Kitchen at the present time.....but we are in the process of having a 30 x 50 Candle shop built....I have way more than outgrown my office, kitchen and house!! I have no room left to put anything else! I look forward to all the room we will have and I can pour and not have to clean up!! Yea
  19. I got my order a couple of days ago, and I was disappointed b/c there were no samples! Guess I haven't been a good girl..Santa forgot me! ha ha
  20. Rob, you might try contacting Wix-N-Wax here in Gladewater TX. They did our logo and we were very pleased with them. Actually we already had the design and they printed it for us. They are very reasonable on their prices. Wouldnt hurt to check with them. We do quite abit of business with them and they are wonderful to work with. Let me know if ya contact them and what you think. Wixnwax.com Catch ya later...Michele, Wild's Creek Candle Co.
  21. I used to get Maple Syrup at Starville Candle Supply, however they discontinued it. It wasnt a big seller for us so we didnt even try to replace it.
  22. Hey Dallas Dean...thanks for your suggestion, I only live about 20 miles from Starville, think we will head over there and check it out!! Michele
