I ran across them while surfing https://www.boxcoop.com/boxes-by-industry/candles/dust-cover-lid/ No I haven't. But I visited the link you gave us and they have some nice stuff. Don't just go to the candle industry section and leave if you don't see what you want, though. I browsed through the other industry tabs and you might find what you're looking for there. I didn't. I've looked everywhere and can't find a plastic cover for a jar I've got. It's square and at the top, which is the widest point, 3.5" x 3.5" OD. Rounded on the corners. 4 3/8 on the top diagonally. Any suggestions where to look? Any one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even did a few searches and this is all I found. https://www.candlemakingsupplies.net/glass-container-jars---lids/pvc-metal-lids-for-glass-candles/cate_105/p___P0906069.html https://www.lonestarcandlesupply.com/plastic-cover-large-square.html https://aaacandlesupply.com/collections/containers/products/large-cube-metal-lid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) I think you may have found it @Laura ! I went to the first link and that is the type lid I need. Looking around the site I found this: https://www.candlemakingsupplies.net/glass--boxes--jars--lids/glass-containers---jars/cate_104/p___P0941826.html That's my jar! Only mine is more like 12 oz. However, the 3.5" dimensions it gives match up with mine. Thank you! I've got it bookmarked. After I posted that yesterday, I did manage to find one that looks like what I need. It all depends on from where they measure. Outside to Outside, inside to inside or from the center of the groove. The lady at the company I found yesterday is sending me a sample. I think I'll ask these people to do the same. Now we're getting somewhere.

And you could always do a square paper dust cover if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and you could DIY or use an online print service. Search for "labels" on here and you will find lots of helpful info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran across them while surfing https://www.boxcoop.com/boxes-by-industry/candles/dust-cover-lid/ I used to order from them. They are really close so no shipping. They started out nice but got to be a PITA. When they made my dust covers they would wait until they got an order that there would be extra space between whatever they were cutting to fit my order in. Does that make sense? Instead of just making my order, they would “fit my order in”. The orders started taking longer and longer to get. I stopped using them when they started acting like it was somehow my fault that they were late with my orders. I recently found these guys. They have much better prices, they are super nice and occomodating. http://www.westernpress.net/CandleCoverTwoColor.html They sent me quite a few samples. They have a very big selection of papers and print type options. BTW I have a few dust covers for sale in the classifieds. You should take a look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScentedPleasurez Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 @Jeana thank you! I had just came across them while searching around and it seemed that they had a quality product. I seen your post in the classifieds but i only had 100 containers that i was looking for a cover for, they are colored and brown beige wouldnt look good with them imo but thanks for letting me know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I ask what company you found them at..? I LOVE these jars and have been searching high and low for lids, with no luck. I've currently been trying to make my own paper dust covers, but my impatience is killing me and I'm pretty sure my kids have learned a new word or two in the process. 🙃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly I saw round and more round. The one square one that was sent to me though, was from Candle Packaging, USA. Their selection consists of exactly two items. Large & small. I even took another path and looked for companies that sold to food service and take out restaurants. Nothing. I just gave up. If you'd like to take the baton and speed off down the track, by all means do and let us know what you find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did find some sleeve type things... Waiting on a quote from the company. I'll try to find the link... Probably going to contact one of the local printing/sign shops and see if they can do something similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C. Rochelle Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 This is what I found and may try.. Would work as a dust cover and maybe keep people from sticking their fingers in the wax. https://pakfactory.com/sleeve-with-tapered-side-panel.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember why I backed away on them. The link you've given here doesn't look familiar, so I'll check it out. What material were you using to make your own dust covers?
