  1. Love the green glass thingys. Your labeling is awesome btw.
  2. What a beautiful rainbow of colors! I bet it smells ubber nice
  3. Agreed, there's nothing natural about the process that it takes to create wax. It's all mostly a sales ploy or a way to make their product sound nicer. Like bamboo fabric, I know it's been a big thing for people to think that is such a fantastic for the environment because of how quickly it takes for bamboo to mature (only 3 years) when in reality the process to turn that plant into a fabric is not exactly the best for the environment. Anyhow, the best thing for anyone to do is to do your research before "buying" into the next new thing, which is what we are doing here now and keep and open mind. This forum definitely opened me up about a lot of misconceptions. So thanks to all who have researched and those who are currently.
  4. You bring up a very good point, this brings a lot of pondering I must do.
  5. The answer is a big yes in order to be recognized as officially organic they do need the label. The purpose of providing the seal is because anybody can label something organic, so to make sure there are standards in place this is best. I wouldn't trust just anyone with the words organic on a label without the usda label as much as I trust products that claim they are 'all natural' (btw to label all natural only 3% of the product needs to be natural to use that title). Tho my local farmers market there are a lot of farmers who can't afford to go through certification process (it's not cheap) so all I can do is take their word for it that they practice organic farming. But I trust my local farmer over any commercial manufacturer that doesn't have the seal.
  6. Those are beautiful! I can't even pick which color i like better!!
  7. I see, thanks for the help! I mean I suppose if I can't find it it's ok cause the palm wax I've seen so far is so beautiful.
  8. I know this is very old, but I was flipping around and saw this. I was curious if anyone knows a company in the US that sells the peacock one? In my hunting it seems palm wax isn't the easiest thing to find anyways(I'm still in the beginning stages and thus don't have a whole lot of sellers on my list of who to buy from) and I've seen the others but I don't think I've seen that one? Does anyone know?
  9. those are so cute. I love the brown one with the flowers and butterfly!!! totally cute!
  10. I agree with everyone. You were extremely polite and explained why you didn't respond in a timely manner and you are standing behind your product by giving her a replacement. There is nothing that needs to be changed.
  11. I agree it is unfortunate that companies do this. Just like the companies that make stuff that is "all natural" when really 5% of it is and the rest is chemicals. Though I've never read anywhere that actually researched it that soy never produces soot, just less if burned properly. The only places I've seen it said that soy doesn't produce soot is from the companies that are manipulating the truth or someone who really hasn't done their research. I am grateful for this forum because it did help inform me a lot about the myths of "natural" candle making.
  12. Does anyone have the stainless steel presto pot? It's only $52 on amazon http://www.amazon.com/Presto-6020-Electric-Multi-Cooker-Stainless/dp/B0017UQB3C/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1328298153&sr=8-3 I think I'd prefer stainless steel to Teflon anyways, just in case it does start to flake in the future. But I'm curious has anyone tried that one?
