Cross-stitch Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I'm torn. Since I've started playing around with making Solid Perfume, I've always used these cheap plastic containers from Dollar Tree. I've always liked them because I could use either round or square so you could tell which scent you were getting. But, now I see these round cool tin ones that would look nice too. Which do you prefer to use? I've seen both used equally, so I'm not sure... Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzyK Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I offer both! I offer a 2 oz twist up container and in a tin. I sell both equally well. The tin is great for fitting in a purse or travel bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross-stitch Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 Thanks! I've also been thinking; I have fruits, florals & neutrals. So, maybe each of these could be different containers this way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, do you package everything the same? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to have good feedback on it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross-stitch Posted July 26, 2021 Author Share Posted July 26, 2021 I hope it's alright. The other day I looked up your website because I wanted to see your other creations. Looks like you've got all kinds of really neat stuff on there!!!! 😊 One of the things I like most was when you name your scents, you keep it really simple! Some of the solid perfumes I've been playing around with making have too many scents to list them. So, I've been trying to figure out names for them instead...

Of course it's alright Thanks for the compliments. Most of my fragrances are just the names the supplier gives them. There's a few that I've changed.

Cross-stitch Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Sounds good!!! I ordered some tin containers yesterday from Etsy and they should be here in a few days! Can't wait to play around with these!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross-stitch Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 Update. I've really enjoyed using the metal containers for my solid perfumes!!! And, everyone who gets them from me has as well!!! Also, there have been a few of the dollar tree plastic containers that I have used that have cracked. So, I now only use the plastic ones for myself until I use up those...

kandlekrazy Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I think you'll do well with the customers that don't want to buy in plastic. Some customers don't care so you'd prob sell both. I've recently thought about starting to make these again so this thread has helped since it's been 15+ years since I sold them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
