They make me upset too. I order the air freshener blanks from them and just ordered some bears. But they take forever to invoice me since I pay with Paypal. I ordered the same time as CS and NG and I just got my NG order. I'm still waiting on an invoice

If someone has one they can sell me I will be ever greatful!

I didn't read all the posts - but a year ago I was a total newb and the chandlers here seem like they are attacking you. It upset me enough to get better! I don't make candles - I tried and failed, not my thing. I make wax melts and stick to other home fragrance items that dosn't require a wick. I never even seen that wax before and dosn't look like a professional wax to use if you intend to sell. It takes A LOT of testing and even when you think you got it down you will still make mistakes. Once you get the saftey down, get others to test it for you and have them fill out a questionnaire. As for your candle - you have way too much FO in it. It looks so wet on top like its halfway set. A good wax will tell you how much FO to put in it.

My customer broke her bowl off her candle warmer (the 2 n 1 ) from Vista Wholesale. Now I found them on OBI, but I have to have a min of $100 order which I don't have. How do I get her a replacement bowl? I need a black one

Masculine scents *head smack* not sure why I didn't even think of things like that and cologne. Thanks so much for the direction. If anyone else has suggestions please let me know! I hate it, for now I have to limit myself to one or two stores because of very limited funds. But I found these three on NG. If anyone has experience with doing these in soy wax, let me know!

I never have used Peaks yet, but CS Lavender is not my favorite. It smells like old granny soap. I love lavender too. Now one I tried in a candle once I bought from an overstock person here was from J&L Creations. Its pricey though

I bought some EO's from Bulk Apothecary for aromatherapy while I was in labor. I thought they were great prices and were high quality.

I am trying to get my feet off the ground with my business and thought about doing a superbowl promotion. I was going to get the little candy molds and make football and helmet shape tarts. I don't dye mine usually, but in this case I will with the super bowl teams colors. Now the tricky part.....what type of scents? I thought grass, leather, a clean linen/cotton and I even thought about doing half and half like raspberry and vanilla for a red/white team. I am just trying to think of a neutral scent!

I get that response too. The beauty of handmade!

I aim to beat out Scentsy. It is hard to convert some people because they are Scentsy loyal. But once they try my stuff they see that mine last longer and cheaper. I have tried Scentsy personally and hated it. It smelt like burnt oil and didn't have a good throw. What got me hooked on melts was a local company that made soy wax melts. That's what started my passion!

I always get surprised reactions when I say mine are handmade. I get a lot of "Good for You!" with the tone you would give a child. People do ask mostly if they are soap or candy, when they say clearly WAX MELTS on the package. Yours I think tops the cake!

Would i have to claim the sales if they are online sales or just physically in that state?

Thanks, I think I won't go with her because she didn't really seem to know answers to my questions or what she was talking about. I asked her what percentage she takes and she said she dosn't take a percentage. I gave her my retail price, but said she needs to see it first. She also said "shipping would get expensive" and had tones like she really didn't want to deal with me. I'll look elsewhere, thanks!

I think I answered my own question. I was reading other tax questions and since I plan to come back and do shows in PA and do consignment here, I'll just be registered in two states. Sorry for the trouble!

So I have another sticky question. I'm making my shop/biz official next month. I need to register my fictitious name. I move to FL in Feb. Should I just register in FL and charge sales tax to FL residents. I have an address I can use there. Or should I file in PA for now and FL in Feb? Can I get past the fictitious name if I add "by Tasha" after the business name?
