  1. Yeah I've been using that since the very beginning. I sure miss their Lemon Bunt Cake I have never been able to find another one remotely close.
  2. Last year and looks promising for this year ? I know it's different everywhere but since I've been out of it for a year and so, I don't want to spend a ton of money on something that you can't give away now. Edit : I know I'll be purchasing from the following, so if you know some really great one from there, please let me know Aztec AH/RE CS Elements and I have a few BCN I need to get so if there is any of their new ones that rock, chime in !
  3. Ditto to everything KS just said... I grew up with a garden that had veggies in it.. the flowers, were in a BED !
  4. I guess I'm lucky since I just do limited kind of runs on clams and change scents so often. I just use 4 and 8 cup glass measuring cups. I did have a few huge pour pots for dipping pine cones in, but I cringed when I had to buy that baby lol
  5. I'm not familiar with those waxes or that combo, but I can tell you this much. When I pour melts into my clamshells, the room has to be just right or it will go all wonky on me. I kind of look at it like making candles... you learn and tweak and twist things around while you're testing, to get the "perfect" result in the room you are using. Weather, temps, humidity and such can change those results unless you keep the room a certain way all year. You may be on to something by thinking that changing rooms, and air flow / temp ect, could have messed up your results.
  6. Well now, that is just flat out adorable! And looking at the concept, man o man can you dress those up in any way you want, for any occasion and they would be a HUGE hit !!!!!!! The possiblities are endless !! WTG !
  7. I've HEARD that Birthday Cake from Aztec is to die for. I know it's their number 1 seller and has been for a while. I had gotten a sample to try, and I put it in 4794 in a TP and the CT was amazing ! I'm sure there's other's who have used it in candles and stuff and maybe they'll chime in
  8. I only read about 3/4 of this thread since it's 9 pages long lol but I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in . I've always used 4794 since the beginning. But then again, I don't do containers or pillars. But I needed a wax that would make my life as simple as possible for multi purposes. Calms, dipped items, votives, etc. I can't remember if Vybar is in 4794 or not, but I do know it's a pre blend. I'm thinking it is in it. I've always had amazing CT and HT from almost every scent I've ever tried. Sure , out of trying about 400 total to either test or carry, sure I had a few that wouldn't have thrown if you'd stood on top of the Empire State building and threw the mess off LOL We all some FO's hate some waxes and there's nothing you can tweak or turn to make it work. If someone has ever used 4794 AND added Vybar to it, can you tell me how it worked out for you? I've always been pleased with my wax and how it's acted, but if adding a lil vybar to it will push it into the stratosphere, I'm game ! Vybar is cheap LOL
  9. heheheh I miss that " baby " too !!!!!!!!!! Aaron was talking about him the other day and said he missed going with me to pick up supplies and see a dog that was actually a " Me size dog " ( Aaron is 6'6 300 lbs ) LOL
  10. Let me jump on the I LOVE ALL THINGS AZTEC bandwagon !! It will be my main supplier if / when I get back into all this. I have never ever had anything but the most amazing products and customer service from them . Trust me and OG. We've both done enough shopping and sniffing over there they might as well give us room and board because I know when I go, I usually stay in there about 2 hours just sniffing and looking at the new stuff and getting ideas. They are the BEST ! LOL. Sweet Potato and Brown Sugar huh ?? hmmm does it smell like a Sweet Potato Pie? If so....... I'M DOOMED ! I'll be trying to eat it or bathe in it LOL. Also, someone asked why there wasn't that many reviews on scents on their website.... I can't speak for them, but I do know that the website they have now, is very new and they've been working the kinks out of it for a while... The " review " section is something that is new to this particular version of their website. I'm sure as it goes along, more reviews will be readily available. I guess I can go over there and give reviews on the older scents that I've used, and sold, and hopefully help someone out
  11. I had to keep a full stock of Peppermint and Eucalyptus year round for sinus's customers. I was using 4794 in melts at 1:1 . I did it in TP's and they last forever ! Great CT. Also used it in some lotion.
  12. I've used it in MP and TPs and Melts and it has serious staying power ! I loved it !
  13. OMG ! Those are stunning ! I can't figure out which one I like the best but the swirls are "sick" ( in a good way , as my kids say ) lol
  14. If you look on the Aztec FB page, it's on there. They put it up the other day, as a "preview" Here's the link : http://www.facebook.com/candlemakingsupply?fref=ts
  15. I honestly think that the three other people were more embarrassed than he was, although he did have a rather contrite look on his face when I shoved it back at him. That is why, no matter if someone I'm with, says that they are leaving the tip, I also leave a tip based on the service I got ( or more ) because trust me, this sort of thing happens all the time. Party of 4, one says they are paying for everything, they do, and leave a shitty tip because the bill was higher since they were paying for it by themselves.
  16. No, I just mixed it 3/4 Tobacco to 1/4 leather because the leather is SUPER strong. Mom burned all the melts I had on hand. Woman went through 5 packs !
  17. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with a warped sense of humor LOL
  18. Well heck yeah ! The more the merrier. Can yall just imagine.. I know it sounds silly, but if you get past the giggling part and the part about " oh it would never work"........... It's honestly not that far of a stretch and has a lot more benefits in some ways, than trying to open your own solely owned and operated brick and mortar.
  19. OG, you wouldn't have to worry about anyone. My DS is just waiting for me to say the word and he's ready to go LOL
  20. I haven't received any emails stating such. But I think they should. I mean, if they can send us newsletters and all that, they can mass send us an update when one of these turns wonky.
  21. OG, she's talking about there's another empty store out on Glade's in the one across from Morning Village.. I saw it and teared up wishing we were all up there in it !
