    clamshells

  3. I ordered several samples of pumpkin scents from Aztec and I cant smell any pumpkin in them. vanilla pumpkin pie, pumpkin souffle, and pumpkin spice. I cant smell any pumpkin notes all I smell is cinnamon in all of these. I use a blend of PB pillar and excel, and I let my melts cure for 5-7 days. I used 1.3oz pp. I also ordered apple cinnamon and the same thing all I smell is cinnamon no apple at all. has anyone else had this issue? I am already late with fall scents now Im really gonna be set back...I did do a search and found a few favorites that people use so im back to the drawing board....oh I did order amish harvest, autumn leaves,and sugared spruce and I love those
  4. Kimmeroo what do you think of 6006?, This is the wax I use and I love the way it looks and I have got it to set up with little to no wetspots, I do temper my wax,(why? I dont know) but im just not please with the HT, I mean its ok but not like I want, I use zinc wicks which I do like but do you think it could be the wicks? oh im using 7oz elemental jars if that helps and maybe 6-8% fo
  5. I'm not sure but would you like to sell some of your spiced pear, I have a few samples of this from Aztec not so good to me
  6. we have a womens lifestyle show here in peoria and booth fee is $650...thats horrible for a one day 9-4 show
  7. ok I to love this scent my question, is the tart better then the votive? they were out of tarts so I got the votive but it seemed a little light.
  8. Hey Lauren I just wanted to encourage you to keep going you will get it, I just got my IGI 6006 to a place that im ok with, but like the others said it doesnt work with all of my FO I carry way more scents in melts. Dont give up, and just my opinion you dont have to pay anyone you have a wealth of information here. Im not an expert but I will help you research once you find a wax that you think you may like. Stella would always post that you have to learn the wax..lol I never knew what they meant until I learned my tart blend wax.. and soy does have a mind of its own....lol .... I have tested one jar from the beginning 7oz elemental jars now that I have it, im ready to find and test a larger jar to add to my line. so I do understand...keep pusing girl you can do it
  9. I purchased Amish Harvest from Aztec when they had they $1 oz sell to try. I use ecosoya Piller Blend/Excell mix and this scent is very strong. I placed a tart in yesterday at 8am and its officially 24hr and I can still smell it. I test using the hot plate warmers from Levines and I think they get very hot. I dont turn my warmer off, I test to see what I get. I know 24 hrs is nothing to some ..lol but to me thats good especially with my mix..
  10. I do I do...I agree I love to support...and compare..lol
  11. have you tried candle science, creme brulee? I love it its very strong in my calmshells,2oz portion cups and my 7oz elemental jars...a little goes a long way
  12. Monkey Farts is one of my best sellers, at first I wanted to changed the name but my husband said not to, he said it will be a conversation piece and its true, I have alot of people from my church as customers also and they love the name Monkey Farts(especially the lil boys). But I did change "Butt Naked to Grown & Sexy...I just could not take that to church...and this is my Pastor and his Wife favorite scent lol
  13. I use this base also, and I do have that problem, I thought that's just how it was so on my label I advertise shake, point, and spray. I would love to know if there's another way
