  1. Yes, I've noticed a difference too. The last few batches I received the throw is good but not as good as a year ago. I received 50lbs Monday and what a difference, the throw was great!! I come to realize when the flakes are very large the wax is not as good. This batch had small flakes as I am used to and the throw is amazing. Am i nuts or what??? Whats going on? This lot is from 5-14.
  2. CS is the best & strongest for me in soy...sell tons of it!
  3. I've have the same issue. Also HT is not as good for some reason. I've been doing this for 8 yrs, only using this wax...but recently I do see a difference. Just ordered some 415 to try, hate to change because always had the best candles with this wax...we'll see what happens.
  4. Can someone please tell me which burns hotter, HTP 1212 or HTP 126. TIA.
  5. I took a wiff of Walmart's pumpkin spice (Mainstay) today and loved it. I bought it an although the throw was not good the scent itself was great. The balance of the pumpkin and spice was pretty darn good. Anyone familar with this and know where I can purchase FO close to this one? Thanks.
  6. Very pretty. I also make these in tins. The only issue is be sure to use cosmetic grade glitter.
  7. Is there really a difference in soy based FO for making soy candles? Just curious. Thanks Jan
  8. Does any know where I can get clear votive covers? Can't seem to find them anywhere. All ready using plastic ones for my larger jars & I would really like to fing the same or simular ones for the votives. Thanks.
  9. Quess I'll have to check them out. With the shipping option it's hard to pass up. Hope the quality is good. Just tried Cajun and loved all of them. Been doing this for 7 yrs now and making profit so it's a little easier to support my habit!! Thanks all. Sorry for the double post.
  10. Quess I'll have to get some samples. The shipping option can't be beat...hopefully the quality is as good. Been doing this for 7 yrs and still can't break the habit of trying new suppliers. Got sampled from Cajun and loved them all. At least now I sell enough candles to support my habit!
  11. Anyone ever try this supplier? They offer free shipping for orders over <edited to say a certain amount>.
  12. Yes , I'm from the beautiful state of Wisconsin. PeggyK, I know they're not same day shipping but today was day 3 and the order was not even proccessed yet even though they were paid on day 1. When I called suddenly it was put through. I am very forgiving for a mistake made, but everytime I order???!!! They said Paypal didn"t notify them and again after my call they found it. I know I don't spend thousands there but if I sell a candle for $6.00 that customer still deserves the best sevice I can provide.
  13. I have no luck with this supplier. There is always a problem when I order. I live in the same state, but after 3 or 4 days, order still proccessing. I pay thru Paypal and there is always a problem. Never have I had to deal with a company like this!!! CS tries to blame Paypal but have no problems with other suppliers. This my last order with them, I'm done!!! Thanks all I feel better getting this off my chest.
  14. I have a great pumpkin spice scent, but just need to add a little sweetness. How can I achieve this? Thanks
  15. Lonestar sells them. They're a nice glass for a great price.
  16. Hi, I'm trying to find covers for the libby universal glass. Would prefer the clear plastic, but at this point any cover would do. Thanks
  17. From what I understand legally you can't use the same name in the same state. To me it was just a matter of principle. I do have a website so when you do a search it will come up. So if they checked it certainly would have seen the name was taken.
  18. This post just proves that this company is a rip off. First my co. is named Diamond Candles. I started this company in 2007. It really made me angry when this company came on the scene in 2011. I am registered at the state & federal level. I wish they would of respected the name of my business by doing a search before they named their company, I did . My name was choosen for the sparkle and the natural component from the earth ( 100% soy) not a gimmick to buy my candles. I take great pride in my products and and like all of you it's my passion. But I am not giving up my name, I thought of it and it has meaning. Also, am constantly receiving e-mails from disatisfied customers that are not happy with them. I am forever forwarding these people to the correct contact. I've been angry since they opened but I will continue to produce the best products I can for my customers. Thanks for letting me vent!!
