Container Help

[jaxonmurphy]

Why is finding decent, unique and affordable containers such a hassle?  It looks like some of the top suppliers would take notice and improve their selection.  Does anyone have any good sources?  Also, does anyone have a source for Matte Black Metal Tins w/ lids, preferably 6-8 oz. ?  I would prefer to order domestically to avoid international shipping.  Thanks in advance!

I think a simple search would find your answer

I appreciate your advice, however I have searched extensively and it is impossible for me to comb through the 1,910,000 results that Google displays.  I was hoping someone here would be able to point me in the right direction.

I like the black tins but I don't think I have ever seen them. I know what you mean, especially depending on your budget, candle container options are somewhat limited. Seems like things that I like are expensive, are overseas and/or in very large quantities. Seems like I have to settle for something reasonably priced and get creative with the lids and labeling.

 

Hey I found some black tins.

This shop on Amazon has some.  https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=bl_dp_s_web_0?ie=UTF8&search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Gipsi+House

Besides the black tins, what type of container are you looking for?

Thanks for replying!  Candle container options are VERY limited and hard to find,  it seems for some reason several Australian suppliers have lots of pretty neat options! 

 

I saw the tins on Amazon but I feel the price is a bit steep at $3.00 each, I do not even pay that for my glass vessels.  The ones from Papermart look too shiny.  My search continues.

Below is just some examples of different containers I would be interested in finding.

I reckon, those containers are wonderful, I'd like some too. LOL. They are probably expensive and only available on Alibaba all the way from China or something and in huge quantities, or Australia. But, I don't know. Sometimes things are not as expensive as you imagine. Good luck with your search.

Thank you!  Yes, that is my issue.  I can not find a supplier in the US that sells anything even close.  I really do not want to deal with Alibaba or order internationally because shipping is outrageous.  And even if I did use Alibaba the minimums are quite high.

Hi, I’m not a brand new member ( I read everything and haven’t posted yet) so hello to everyone.  There’s a relatively new Facebook group called Premium Candle Glassware: US and Canada, which seems to be gearing toward higher end candle containers.  They’re not quite launched yet, lots of unknowns with a new business, but the prices I’ve seen mentioned seem more reasonable and the selection is considerably more in line with offerings available  in Australia.

Thanks so much, I have liked their page.  Excited to see everything they have to offer.
