  1. If you do find baskets that are on clearance and in large quanities, ask the manager if they would take the price down of you buy all of them. I know that both walmart and walgreens do it.
  2. Im so sorry!! that is totally messed up that happened. are there other stores that are similar, in town or neighboring? I know this is gonna sound bad but buy one of the swan creek from her and check it out. they give me a kinda scentsy vibe, crappy resale, ya know.JMHO
  3. Im a few days slow but had to say that the boner soap made my day, lmao!!
  4. these dolls are really cute! my 4 yr old daughter was looking over my shoulder and was screaming ""momma, I need one of those dollies, I LOVE them!!"
  5. I go to peak at least once a month and when I start to run low my oldest son asks "mom. do we get to go to the crack store" my husband is even addicted to FO's he has even ordered some and then when they showed up and I freak out because I didnt order them, he tells me "What?!?! I wanted to smell them"...
  6. I know exactly what your talking about. Have you looked at maybe using a cd or circle label template(like the ones that you can download from avery) and using a scrap booking punch to cut out the circle and then hole punch the center to go over the wick.
  7. what about doing baby magic , I have a cousin that loved the smell but her and her son were alergic so I made her a candle set so the babys room would smell like ot with out actually using it. the other ones that come to mind are baby graces aloe vera baby bee buttermilk baby shampoo heres a link on FO finder that might help http://www.fragranceoilfinder.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=baby&sort=1a&page=1
  8. I am partial to peak myself (Im only about 20 minutes from them) but NG has some really good scents
  9. OHHH I bet the gardenia and asian amber smells amazing! I think Im gonna have to make order of fragrance oils now so I can experiment.
  10. I have only come across one FO that I was really turned off by and it was peaks asian sandalwood. my husband calls it pickled a$$. he hated it so much!
  11. this was the reason I got on today is to seach the forum for this scent :highfive:
  12. I read this forum for 2 years before I poured my first candle...
  13. I use all metal butter knives that I found savers(20 in a bag for $2.99). They are wide enough to blend the fo and I can slice thru the blocks so they melt better.
  14. I would use sandalwood in there some where and fireside too. but Im still pretty new to the world of "FO mad science". but its still fun to brain storm
  15. I have noticed myself doing that too, when I see something like that is mass marketed like glade and renuzit and try and figure out how its made. Like the glade candle that has the really thin strips in them. I just can't figure out how the colors don't bleed together. But I have really tested all that hard either lol.
  16. I wonder if you could achieve this effect by running the wax thru a sive and on/into something that that would instantly solidify the wax, like water or a cold cookie sheet?...
  17. thats what I thought too. wax dots actually look like the candies. these are super fine and I couldnt figure them out lol
  18. I was checking out some things on etsy when I came across these. the only thing that I can think is that they are aroma beads, but it says that they melt. I googled everything I thougt that they could be. anyone have any ideas. they are definately a neat idea.
  19. I use the create feature and pick the 12x12 centered box(depending on the PS your using). then I just add photo, frane and text and save as a JPEG. then put them in to the labels in the word template for the label I bought.
  20. I am looking for a columbine flower FO. Has anyone ever come across it by itself. I have found bouquet FOs that have it in them but I just want columbine. any help is greatly appriciated! thanks!
  21. mine are similar to yankee and I make them in photoshop and transfer them to word and just get the avery premade labels. they are white right now but I will be switching to the clear gloss ones.
  22. cool, Im doing the notebook thing now but I am already getting frustrated. thank you guys again for all the awesome info. you guys rock!
  23. so I googled for a template and found this http://candlekits.qarf.com/candle-making-projects/candle-testing-spreadsheet would this be a good template or will it require more info or modification?
  24. you guys are so helpful, thank you. stella- "If they can catch me" lmao. Im a young mom(26) and my 7 year old told me "mommy, Ill miss you when you die" so I told him not to worry cause Im gonna live forever. he he he I love the note book Idea, but would you guys suggest having a digital and a hard copy(space permiting)
  25. I am curious as to the best way to file your test and batch reports and if there is a general template that you use for your cards/reports? do you have a seperate file box(s)/cabinet,etc? does anyone do a digital version? How far back do you keep test records?
