  1. Thanks, all. Still going great. I love it!!! I'm getting such great feedback on the store and products. I guess the obsessive 5 years of testing, tweaking, testing and testing again has paid off. I think my favorite part is that I feel so confident with my products. I know they are good. If I do say so myself. :)

  2. I just opened a small store in my little hometown. Just finished my first weekend and a had great turnout and a fabulous time. I can't believe how fun it is. It's hard work, as you all know, but I love it. I want to thank all of you on this board for all the great help and info over the years. You all rock!!! Here's some pics of my store. post-8637-0-38799500-1427072909_thumb.jppost-8637-0-19124400-1427072941_thumb.jppost-8637-0-03338800-1427073015_thumb.jp

  3. I have used 6006 in the past, but currently use my own parasol blend. Here are some of my super throwers.

    Mac Apple- CS

    Christmas Hearth -CS

    Rosemary Mint - Soappalooza

    Apple Crisp Deluxe- Pure Frag oil

    Sugar Cookie Royale

    Cinnamon Broom- Fragrance Buddy

    Christmas Tree - Fillmore Container

    Cedar Garland - Fillmore

    witches Brew - MW

    Welcome Home - MMS

    South Pacific Sea, Lavender Vanilla, J&J Soothing Lavender - Candle Source

  4. I ordered a bunch of Sc**tsy dupes from them a few years ago in SOS grade and was very disappointed.  Could not get to throw well and most did not smell like Scentsy at all, IMO.  I just tried them again a month ago and ordered the extreme grade.

    Here is what I ordered:

    Autumn Sunset - extreme grade - dud!!! Little CT or HT

    Winter Wonderland - extreme grade - OK - mint chocolate - but like other ones just as well -  not worth the price, IMO

    Spiced Grapefruit - extreme grade -  strong, but not my cup of tea - smells like public restroom to me - but others like it

    Amber Romance - extreme - strong and wonderful !!!

    Brown Sugar Fig - extreme - AWESOME - Strong and yummy!  I love this fragrance and have had trouble finding one that throws.  This one throws great!!!

     

    I would reorder Amber Romance and Brown Sugar Fig. It's just hit and miss - like any other Supplier. :) Oh, and BTW, I did use 6% instead of my normal 10% in tarts.

  5. I made Darwin's and Kat's recipe when I first started soaping a few years ago. I really liked Darwin's recipe, but ultimately went for less CO and PKO in my bar. Might have to try it again now that I have some experience to see if I still like it.

    I have a block about going much above 16 on the cleansing number - in soapcalc. I know that is still possible to make a nice bar with higher cleansing, but just can't seem to do it. :)
