That horse is beautiful!! It looks like it will run right off the candle if it were mobile!

Great job,

Steph

I gotta quit reading these boards, because I keep finding things I want to try! I haven't tried BC's lip balm yet, but I am thinking I might just try your recipe, because hopefully those will all be things I can keep on hand in the near future.

Stephanie

That is really pretty! When I first looked at the title, I thought it said "Poopies in the Sun", LOL. Very vibrant colors!

Steph

Those do look nice! I have something similar that I bought from Home Interiors 2 years ago, but they were painted on with glitter or something. Never thought about stickers!

Steph

Love the colors! I am sure she will be thrilled!

Steph

Those do look great! I will have to try the Angel from BC. Seems like lots of people use it and like it!

Steph

They are still very nice, even though you didn't get what you were trying for!

Steph

Thanks. I use a mix of J50 and Ez soy. I didn't like all the frosting with plain soy, but it is so economical, so I just mix them! My colors are mostly dye blocks for now.

Here is my first picture. Been making candles for fun for almost 3 years now, but starting to get serious (hoping to start selling in the spring). Most everything is BCN.

Bottom: Twigs and Berries, Citrus Peel and Pine, Blueberry Muffins, Apples and Oak

Middle: Woodland Trail, CInnamon Bun, Hot Cocoa

Top: Pumpkin Nog, Dew Berry

Triple Layer: Neopolitan

Laying Down: Spiced Apple

TFL,

Stephanie

Not sure if it is still on the list, but their Pumpkin Pie is a big thumbs up.

They are making the pumpkin pie co part of their regular line as soon as the other stuff sells out, I believe. It is great.

Steph

I think they would look cute like that!

Steph

Very nice!! Sounds like you did pretty well. Wonder if you would have done even better had you not beein in a backroom!

Steph

How about Frosty Pine or Frosted Forrest???

Home Interiors has one out call Frosted Pine, but I can't remember what it smells like!!

Stephanie

I am in western PA as well, but thankfully we haven't seen any snow, YET!!

That is an adorable candle!

Steph

Those are all great! Those crayons sure catch the eye!!Steph

Those are awesome! I would definitely say at least $15, especially since you have put so much trouble into cleaning them. CLR isn't cheap either!Great product!Steph

No clue about oils, but if you need any testers, my boys always seem to break out with it at some point during the winter. I know my almost 9 month old is starting with some dry patches already.Steph

I like the small wicker laundry baskets from Walmart. I did one for my sil's wedding and I was able to fit a small bottle of sparkling cider, two goblets, 4 votive holders with candles in them and a pint jar of cappuccino mix in it. I think they are around $1.25 a piece. I also saw that Walmart had a lot of nice Christmas tins out.Robin, I never thought of thinking outside the box!!!HTH,Steph

I saw those the other day and I thought they were super cute! Let us know how they burn. I also like the big soup bowls, I was thinking of making my sister one for her birthday!

Steph

Those are all great! The candles would match my bathroom!

Steph

I have to add a third plug for Bittercreek's bases. The only one I haven't tried is the hand soap one. The lotion is great and feels wonderful on your skin. I haven't started selling lotion and b and b yet, but I plan on adding it soon! I am also thinking of trying the goats milk multi base from Candles and Supplies to make a thicker cream for feet and other rough areas.

Steph

Oh yeah, the price on the EZ soy can't be beat either!

Steph

I mix ezsoy with J50 because i didn't like all the frosting with the plain soy. I also use mostly BC fo's as well. Ones that work well in soy are marked with a world in one of the scent description lists. You can also search their message boards for other things you might be looking for. Their prices are great and their quality is even better!! Give them a try and you won't be sorry.

Here are some scents that I love from them:

Cappuccino Brulee

Cookies for Santa

WYW Buttercream Crunch

WYW Citrus Peel and Pine

WYW Snowberry

I could go on and on.

Don't forget about Bittercreek South. They have some awesome ones as well.

HTH,

Steph

Those are all very nice!! I am sure the guests will love them.

Steph

I haven't started selling yet, but I am planning on doing the 2 oz for travel size and the 4 oz for regular home size.

I know that if I get bored with a scent (especially for body spray) that I have other options and don't have to spend a lot on them!

I love the look of the aluminum as well!
