Sunday Posted August 7, 2018 Posted August 7, 2018 Do you guys know where I can find some vessels that's just are just a bit fancier than a mason jar ...something similar to these? Quote
Trappeur Posted August 7, 2018 Posted August 7, 2018 What about these? From Candles and Supplies? I've been wanting to order some of these for sometime now...so elegant. Trappeur 3 Quote

pughaus Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) @sunday For an upscale ceramic pot, yes. (Unless you can bring them in yourself in large volumes from China.) You might save a few bucks if you search some wholesale home decor lines like www.homart.com or https://www.creativecoop.com/Home-Shop-by-Product-Candle-Holders-Tealight---Votives/ or, since you're in Canada, https://www.chive.com/collections/ceramic-vase for something suitable. But even then the cost is typically upwards of $4.00 pc. and you'll need buyer credentials and to meet the vendor's minimum orders. And there's still freight, although timing your buy with a trade show can help. Many lines offer freight breaks or discounts during the trade show season. (July-August and Jan-Feb) Traps link, www.candlesandsupplies.net also has some colored glass tumblers that look similar to woodenwick's version. HTH Edited August 8, 2018 by pughaus Quote
kandlekrazy Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) The black jars from candlemakingsupplies are nice but beware that they are painted so if shipping far or you ship candles they do get scratched. I quit using them and I'm local to that supplier and could pick out good ones by hand. It has been quite a while so maybe check with them and see if the paint has been improved.

Forrest Posted August 9, 2018 Posted August 9, 2018 I find this thread very disturbing. First there are links to seven suppliers I didn’t even know about, this has caused me to develop a twitch in my right eye from the strain of not clicking on the links. Then there was the one link I did click on, candlemakingsupplies, they have fragrances designed just for Ultra Wax, which is a soy coconut blend; what is that all about? Do I need to try that? I think my hair may start falling out and how will I ever be able to sleep again. I think I need to make some candles this weekend, that will calm me down. 2 7 Quote

Forrest, I get the same way when I read the fragrance threads! So, I have to BAN myself from reading them until I deplete some of the ones I already have. 2 Quote

Trappeur Posted August 9, 2018 Posted August 9, 2018 Oh Sunday, check out this site. I know they are in California but if you order 3 cases or 4, the prices don't hurt so much California Candle Supply. I'm checking out the black ones...I really like those. Quote

Trappeur Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 So would you order with the lids or no? Boxes? Oh, that will be really gorgeous! Trappeur Quote

I really like these boxes ...they come in a few colors and I drool over them every time I look at them..but at 7.00 a pop...then the jar ...wax ...fragrance etc...my free labour and still my candles are going to be 200.00each ..ok maybe not quite but you get my drift!. 1 Quote

They sure were! I had a special project and i ordered the teal ones, they are so pretty 😀 Quote
Trappeur Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 I called a while back and they told me these were just a limited collection and once they were out, they were out. Just recently I believe someone said they were out of the lids. When I went on line, I don't see the lids. I sent them a message inquiring about this a couple days ago and they have not responded. Kinda odd. I'll check again Monday. Now in this case I would put them in a box. A beautiful dust cover would also be nice. I could see these teal jars as a limited collection for the holidays. I'm going to order 3 or 4 cases and do just that myself. Trappeur Quote

I ordered 12 of the white ones and they make beautiful candles. They were $2.40 each and they charged me $23.62 to ship to Texas; $4.36 each for a pretty 10 oz candle isn't too bad since my customer will be able to charge $25 for these. I just checked the CalCandleSupply.com website and it looks like they're still out of stock on these lids. I need to do my test burn with this container but looks like I may not be able to get more so this will be a VERY limited edition!! 1 Quote
Trappeur Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) Oh my! What a gorgeous candle Lightmyfire all the way around...!!! Your wax and wick and the creaminess of that candle is stunning! Very nice presentation. $4.36 is not bad at all for a classy candle and with that wood lid. Are you putting a label on it too? Trappeur Edited August 11, 2018 by Trappeur Quote
