  1. Hi! Do you know where to get the bath confetti and stuff like the kids "Goo" for wholesale?
  2. Hello! Does anyone have any experience doing this? I have a chain store that is going to be carrying my items and they require me to have UPC on my things. What does that mean? Or how do they work? Do I just make them up myself and put them on the products, or do I need to go thru some computer system? Thanks!!!
  3. Hi ! Thanks for the info, I currently am covered for 500,000. I live in Pa. Also, does anyone know what you need to do to make UPC #s for all your products?
  4. I need to find someone to cover me for 1 million in order to get a large chain store to carry my products. Does anyone know who carries this high of coverage? Thanks!!!

  9. Hi! I have been using j223 for a long time with the 51z's in square masons. Lately though my wick has been getting a heck of a mushroom on it. What wicks do you use with your J223? I think Iam going to have to switch. TIA!
  10. It makes me so mad to see some of these people!!! I have been making candles for over 7 years and have worked my butt off testing each and every product, getting out there and getting new accounts, advertising and acquiring a large customer base. Now when I see all these people at these shows who have just started and have no idea what the heck they are doing, and not testing thier products it makes me furious!!! They are destroying my business with thier stupidity!!! Alls it takes for a person is one crappy "homemade" candle experience and it ruins it for that person. Therefore, hurting me. It is all I can do to keep my mouth shut to these people when I see them at shows and see the scents that are supposed to be "skin Safe" when they are not and listening to the sales pitch on soy and lotion etc. PUKE!! Why does everyone under the sun think they can or want to make candles? And what about these dumbe people who actually call me up and want to come to my business so that I can show them how to Make candles or want to know where to get supplies. Or these people I see come in to check out all my products and the next thing I know they are on thier tables to!! Are they nuts??? Ok, I feel a little better now. LOL!!!
  11. I have been making candles for a loooooonnnnggg time and I learned very early on that C&S is sucks. Their products are way overpriced, and the FO's are horrible. You dont know what you are missing if you are getting them there. You need to do some serious shopping around. The way to getting around the high shipping is to order all of your items at once instead of ordering here and there.
  12. If you read the description the sides are slit for removal and the mold comes with rubber bands to hold it together. Never had a problem with her molds at all. They are the only kind I will use. I have the same snowman mold and that is exactly how it came. I have one of the electric grubbys that I bought over a year ago and it has the slits with the bands and it has had over 100 pours and it has held up great! Just give ginger a yell and Iam sure she will explain!
  13. I am trying to make white candles in my silicone electric mold and when I take the candle out the top of the candle is disolored. Anyone know how to clean these molds!
  14. My bulbs in my electric candles are turning brown in the shops that carry them. I am assuming it is from the FO and being in the cello bag. Anyone else have this or know of a way to prevent it? Anyone know where to get the silicone to dip them in? Thanks!
  15. If so, which do you prefer? Also, does anyone use zinc in thier soy? Thanks!
  16. M&P goat milk and clear base? Also a place that carries citric acid. I usually buy from WSP but the shipping is killer. Any suggestion? I live in PA, any place close? Thanks everyone!!
  17. Hello, I was just wondering where everyone is getting the electrical parts for thier electric candles? Also the rusty pans.(8inch) I am currently getting mine at craft wholesalers, but you have to have a $50 min order each time! Thanks!
  18. Hi! I have decided to attempt lip balms. Can anyone give me an idea of what you sell them for? Or packaging? I am basing my figures off of WSP, does any one have any suggestions on a defferent supplier? Thanks Everyone!!!
  19. Ok, what do you mean by keywords?
  20. Hello! I was just wondering how all of you promote your site. I need more traffic, but it seems so confusing all these different ways to promote. not to mention some of the pricing. Thanks for any info!
  21. what message board did you find the review on? Never heard of such.
  22. Thinking about giving it a try but was wondering if it was really worth the price. I wonder who else buys the magazine besides all of us crafters! LOL!!
  23. Just curious what everyone was making new to sell this fall/ christmas. I will be offering a couple differnt style of elect. candles. Anxious to see how they will go in this area. I know the waxed bears are pretty much burnt out around here. racking my brain on what else besides the electrics to try. LOL!!
