I just visited their warehouse a couple of weeks ago when I was on vacation and they were really nice and helpful when answering my questions. I loved that fact that they are out in Amish Country which I love so much. I would not hesitate to do business with them.

Does anyone know who sells cut and curl candle supply equipment besides www.candlesandsupplies.com? I thought BC started selling it but it is no longer on their site.

I talked to a rep last week about those warmers and asked if my 8 ounce jars would work. I was told no because they are too short. I can't remember the exact size but know it was the taller candles that work best so they are right underneath the lamp. If you call the company they can tell you.

Sorry I wasn't much help.

Thanks for the input. This can all be so confusing.

How are you testing them? Place one in your car and after the warmth of the sun gets to it you will definately smell it. When it is cold you won't smell it as strongly but will once it warms up.

I like the glass container better. Your labels are very cute!

Congrats on a great day!

You might want to refigure your prices though. You are selling them way to low.

So many choices to chose from...

Thanks for the ideas.

Does anyone know of an awesome Pumpkin Pie type FO that is body safe? The one's I've come across are candle safe only.

TIA!

I made up gift baskets for Valentine's Day and the warmers that have a picture on the box I just put in the basket as is along with the the other goodies I put in the basket. If the warmer just came in a plain box I took it out, put the instructions underneath and placed in the basket with the other goodies and then wrapped in cello. A few of the baskets I had to put shrinkwrap around part of it in order to anchor the candles in since the baskets were being shipped. I then put cello around the whole basket with a big bow.

How does Cornucopia sell for you? When I offered it about 5 years I didn't sell any.

You can always package them with cello and tie a pretty ribbon around that top. That will retain the scent.

I have the same warmers and I don't think they are shiny but more muted finish. Personally I like the finish because if wax gets on the warmer it would be easier to clean than if they were a matte/dull finish. The sage I had wasn't lime green so it sounds like yours slipped through quality control.

I love the large size of the warmers and plug ins and have sold bunches of them.

RMC, thanks for the reply. I was thinking that shower gel would probably be a slow mover vs. lotion. I have 4 oz and 8 oz bottles so I guess I could do scents in both to see how well they do.

How is lotion and shower gel selling for people this time of year? Is one selling better than the other and what about size? Does 8 ounces or smaller sell better?

I use spinners and also lay a few around the table. Make sure you have a sample of the air fresheners open for people to sniff and feel. Once they realize what they are they will buy. I sell a bunch and have people seek me out to get them.

Doglover,

Thank you for the information. I'm surprised that someone left that information on the bag.

I charge $4.25 each or $3.50 each with the purchase of a warmer.

This came from a supplier that I buy from frequently and have never had the problem before.

I always ask when buying off the classies if the probucts come from a smoke-free environment because I hate smoke.

Confusing.... wanting to build a website but am so confused as I don't understand what a Zen Cart, X-Cart, Mal something or other, etc. is. Can anyone explain all this or point me in the direction so I can get educated?

Thanks.

There's some businesses I had never heard of.

Thanks Steve. I'll have another family members sniff the bag when they get home. I still think they stink.

I normally pour in the evening after work and put the lids on in the morning, so that would be about 8 hours. I found if I put them on too soon then they shrunk (caved in) in the middle.

I just received a pound of yellow beesaw pastilles that I ordered and it stinks! It smells like cigar or pipe tobacco and is offensive. Is it supposed to smell like this?

I'm sorry. This is the worst time of year for this to happen too.
