  1. Welcome!! I spent 3 months reading on here before I started and I'm so glad I took the time. I would have been so lost without the information here.
  2. Amazing! I really like them!
  3. I use NG's in my tarts and it's very strong. Great scent. I use a blend of Ecosoya PB and Xcel.
  4. I love the Best Friends too. Soooooo good! That's good to know they are different for you. I haven't put the Pomegranate in wax yet so maybe once it is, it'll smell differently. I bought the Pomegranate because it has glowing reviews on NG's site.
  5. Does anyone have these 2 fragrances? I just got the Pomegranate one and I swear it is the exact same fragrance as Best Friends. Does anyone think so too?
  6. I didn't get that one. I wish I would have. I guess almost everyone at the open house purchased it. Of the new ones I got Tiare Flowers, Raspberry Lemonade and Eucalyptus & Spearmint. I like them all but haven't put them in wax yet.
  7. I use Nature's Garden and it smells amazing. I haven't tried others though.
  8. Yay! They look great! Makes me excited for my open house.
  9. Those are really really nice. I love Pink Sugar!
  10. I think Admin is constantly shutting down reseller shops, like you said, they're a dime a dozen. There's also so many copyrighted items on there. My monthly bill is high enough to pay for a website for a whole year or more. I am still making a good profit though. I like that a lot of people shop there and I don't have to do the maintenance work. I may not be able to afford it with this business though. My profit margin will be much smaller.
  11. I do pretty well on Etsy with my hair accessories. I stay away from the forums. I don't like them at all. I used to go to their chat rooms a lot and met a lot of great people there. I just don't have time for that now. If you only have a few items in your shop, people tend to stay away. I am debating with the wax melts/tarts to just open a "real website" or stay with Etsy for awhile.
  12. I am testing NG's Morning Glory & Honeysuckle and it is amazing.
  13. Gorgeous! You did a great job with them. Nice colors and they look so smooth.
  14. Oooh that sounds like a really good one. I'm interested in how it turns out. I'm testing Blue Cotton Candy today.
  15. Have you tried Ecosoya Xcel? I don't see many people talking about this one on this board. I'm using it in a blend for my wax melts and I really like it. Great scent throw so far and just a tiny tiny hint of frosting. I'm not using wicks though, so that may make a big difference.
  16. I've done quite a few refunds over the last few months and I haven't had any problems with paypal holding money.
  17. I haven't had any problems with paypal holding money. Is this a new thing? I'm going to be signing up for propay too probably. I used it when I used to do shows and hopefully will be starting to them again. Lol on the knucklebuster- there's a reason why they call it that, they are difficult to use.
  18. Those are really cool! Nice job!
  19. I am testing Apple Jack & Peel right now. I was thinking the same thing about the name- not my favorite. It smells so good though! I think Spiced Apple Cider is a great name for it, it fits the way it smells. I might use that one if its ok. Jack's Spiced Apples goes well with your biz name.

    A mix to avoid

    I pour about 155 for my clamshells too. On one I forgot to let it cool and poured too soon and I think the temp was in the 170's. It warped. I use all soy.
  21. Thanks for that information. I do keep the lid handy. I've sort of gotten the hang of the presto pot so it doesn't get too hot again. I have been testing with 2 cubes. It does lead me to want more. lol. I have quite a few scents that I need to test. It's been fun!
  22. Oh my gosh! I never thought to put the FO & dye in first! That makes it so much easier! Thank you. I wish I had gotten a couple of 2 lb pour pots instead of all 4 lb ones.
  23. That looks really good! I love strawberry smells!
  24. I have a bunch here that smell amazing but I haven't put them in wax The ones I like that I have put in wax (I'm just starting out) Monkey Farts Clean Cotton Pink Sugar Best Friends Christmas Cabin Apple Jack & Peel Pumpkin Crunch Cake
