  1. I contacted them and they said they are NOT getting a replacement, but checking into "new pricing" and seeing about carry it again at a higher sell point.... don't know for sure what that means.... and didn't get any kind of timeline.... so if Bravo can get a good dupe, I'd be sooooo in.........
  2. When you are ready.... for really large orders, go with the Turkey fryers... I have 12 plus.... I have 30 plus pounds of our most popular scents, all scented, colored and ready to go..... then I have a couple that just have unscented, so I can make what needs to be made, but I always have 60 plus pounds ready..... and I refill often. I make at least 200 candles a day (with 1 employee) but this is working..... The Surf 'n' Turks cost about $100 each, but if you hold off until January you can find great clearance deals... got quite a few for $33 each at K-Mart... HTH
  3. I haven't found anything close and I am desperate... I'd be soooo in....
  4. Anyone know any place that sells these wholesale, besides Levines?? I need a few and of course they are all out and not expecting more until Dec 15th.....
  5. IMHO.... the only way you are safe is to be at least an LLC..... and carry insurance. We pay $430 a year for 2 mill. liability...... but alot more is covered too..... Don't be a fool..... find a good accountant and LLC yourselves.... protect what is yours!!!
  6. We have ours done by a professional printer. It may cost more but the results really make a difference in presenting a professional, upscale product line.
  7. I am at the point where I have 14 surf & Turks.... but still only average 800 candles a week.... need to find the right help.... Ran a ad got a response of about 150 people....... Could only pick 3 I could work with:embarasse Got some real whack jobs apply........ An advice???
  8. Cranberry and Cinnamon is a great blend.... it's the holidays so you could add a splash of of balsam....
  9. This is what happens when the ones you love endure too much girlie stuff ( ie: pink sugar, etc) Be afraid, my friend, very afraid! and come join our Manly swap:yay:!!!
  10. I'd just make the scrub and drink the Vino:yay:
  11. I have some unrefined shea that has been around for awhile... stored in a cool basement, in plastic bags in a box.... It's got a funny smell anyway, so how do I know if it is still good? TIA
  12. I am going to be the only dumb one who post this question..... What is Lard? Besides the sh*t on my ass.... We talking something like Crisco here?
  13. Very old post.... BUT did anyone ever do this and was it profitable? TIA
  14. I have an opportunity to buy 2 -9 self 120 V, candle glass warmers.... Want to see if I am getting a fair price. Anyone have one of these units or know who sells them? TIA
  15. Well ANgi, My point was.... anything to get a 16 year old to do laundry, would work for me...
  16. Not an ideal with alot of merit...... but if I was his mother I'd be really encouraging his testing of the product.... lol
  17. Shouldn't he be in school right now? I know my kids are....
  18. I blend this with another fragrance and it is one our best sellers.... BUT BNC discontinued this awhile back. Bought a ton at the time and am almost out. I called them and offered to buy 25 pounds at a time and they said no.... then I asked if they could give the supplier, so I could order a large amount from them.... NO. SO.... anyone know of any fragrance similar to this out there??? It is very woodsey.... TIA
  19. I agree, but wait 24 hrs. to burn anyway:cheesy2:
  20. Ky has a body glaze base.... wonder if it is the same thing..... but have never tried it or any other body gloss....
  21. I pour at about 165..... can get a little bit of waviness, but this is into a clamshell, and we put a label on the top. It doesn't bother us. I do hit with a heat gun.... on the lowest level from way above (lol) and that seems to help smooth it out..... HTH Everyone raves about our tarts, say the scent last forever..... have heard of people not changing out after burning for 3-4 days....
