  1. All my labels still have the word "Natural" still on them but I can't afford to replace them so when I order next I'll change them but as Wessex said "I screwed up and did not research it deep enough." I have however gone over my website and fixed a few things. For now that will have to do.
  2. I just went to NG and they have several favorable reviews about their KLP scent. You may what to check them out. Here's the link:http://www.naturesgardencandles.com/candlemaking-soap-supplies/item/rf-84/-Keylime-Pie-Fragrance-Oil-.html
  3. Does the olive oil scent come through strongly over your FO/EO. Not sure which you used? I've heard it's hard to cover that up.
  4. Does anyone else sell at this site? You pay $5 a month or $50 a year and can list and sell with no fees. Sounds like a great way to get your products out there if your just starting out. What are your thoughts on this? Advice? TIA! http://handmadeartistsforum.com/forum/index.php
  5. Thanks guys! I knew that was the answer but I just had to ask.
  6. Ok I think I know the answer to this but I am going to ask anyway. I have my main scents that i sell down and I know that they perform as they should. What I want to know is if I'm buying FO from (let's say Candle Science that is known to test in soy and has truthful ratings on their site as far as I know) do I still need to go through a testing phase for a new FO that has proven to work in soy? I'm small and just starting out and would like to offer some special one time scents but I don't think I have the cash flow to go through testing again and again. I know I'm about to get killed here and I think the answer is NO but I still wanted to ask. TIA! Don't hit me to hard please.
  7. Lonestar and Candle Science carry it as well as others but they are closest to me.
  8. You might be able to make that out of polymer clay from Michaels.
  9. Could some of the more experienced/seasoned candle makers here give my pictures a look and tell me what they think? TIA! :-)
  10. No she didn't!! Ok guys I don't want to get into a debate about natural/ paraffin waxes. I want to know if anyone here actually make a true "all natural" candle. So far it looks like the answer is no. I have though enjoyed the previous comments so thanks for responding. :-)
  11. I found this description at Fragrance Oil Finder from the supplier Pine Meadows. It says: Woodberry- "You'll love this refreshing, great outdoors scent reminiscent of a berry breeze in a lush hardwood forest." Does that describe what you have?
  12. I have read a lot of threads about soy candles not being natural because of the process that it takes to get it to wax form. I am just wondering if anyone on the board actually makes a true All Natural candle? Soy or what have you. Thanks for responding!
  13. C-3 is a good wax. You should have some good results from it. I'd let it cure a week at least before testing.
  14. Lol! So crazy you mentioned that! I just saw Paula Deans cheap ass candles at Michaels the other day. I'm sure someone else makes them and she just slapped her fake airbrushed face on the front!!
  15. Ooooo! Sounds interesting! I mix an original scent that I use for the Fall using tomato leaf. I'll have to get a sample of that.
  16. If you let it cure for 2-3 weeks it may get better. But I'm personally not a fan of Eco-Soya Adv. Not sure if that's what you are using.
  17. I use 3dcart and I'm able to shipping by quantity. I also do not have 900 items so it's alot easier to judge this. I know that 5-6 of my candles fit in a medium size flat rate box and then if they order more it goes to a large flat rate box. That's how I do shipping. Wish I could ship for $5 like some others but I can't. Maybe one day I can. :-)
