Trappeur Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Geesh, for some reason it wouldn't let me post the website address I tried to post here Little Light as I tried here. It was only one, but I think someone else had posted it here. I sent a pm message to you with the site address and it went through there in the message area.

moonshine Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Those are bigger than the maxi'sI am betting they are custom made just for them- I haven't come across any that size- they appear very large in diameter and somewhat shallow but deeper than the maxi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I noticed they do not list the net weight on the front label, or on the website. Sneaky buggers, lol.And the picture with the warmer ... does that look like an easy melt cup in the warmer? Looks like a jar to me. The cups are short.I'm curious, but not curious enough to go find one and buy it.Tell your customers to save the little packages and refill them with your melts, saving a ton of money!I sold wickless candles about 10 years ago. I used both the small tureen jars and 4 oz shallow tins, and you used them on the plate type warmers. You have to be careful not to overfill them because the wax will grow in volume. You don't want them to spill over the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I really love the idea someone posted above of the lidded tins. They come in several sizes and dimensions.the 2 oz hold quite a bit, are refillable, definitely safe regardless of the melter type, easy to label and not plastic. Encaustic paint manufacturer "Hot Cakes" uses tins for their product which must be kept at 150-ish and reheated over and over.I think i.m going to introduce that this year versus trying to recreate the wheel. They fit my existing brands too, so win win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest OldGlory Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I checked Papermart.com yesterday and they have a wide variety of sizes in the tins. If the 'pod' or 'cup' has to sit down in a narrow spot you will need to get a measurement of the pod/cup being used and find the tin that will fit. You'll also have to provide a warning not to handle the tin until it has cooled. B2B, glad you were amused. Hope you were able to get all the sticky off your computer.
