enchantedflorest Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I did a search but couldnt come up with anything.... probably cause it dont matter --- but for those of you that do shows or have shops/booths, do you have coffee grounds available to clear the sniffer? Even more precise - do you prefer grounds or beans? Had to ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSAS Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I use Coffee Beans.And if you ever forget the coffee beans, have the customer just sniff the sleeve of their shirt. That cleanses their sniffer, also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesbeaulieu Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have them in a brown paper bag with a twist tie closer so the don't overpower my booth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgia Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have whole beans. I put them in tins with a cute label on top with and elephant that says, "clear your sniffer". Most people know what they are and look for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILVCANDLES Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I was in a candle store today and they had coffee beans in a 4oz JJ w/ a smelly jelly lid...I thought that was cute.:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaColo Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I prefer beans to ground because I'm clumsy. It's easier to clean up beans than grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hi,I use coffee beans. I put them either in a nice jar with the daisy lid or I cut a piece of tulle in a circle, load it with coffee beans and tie it off with a ribbon. If you go to the perfume section of the dept. stores that will give you an idea of how to package the coffee beans, because that is what they use.

enchantedflorest Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 Thankx for all the replies, I'll try to think of something crafty and use the beans -- they do sound easier for clean up and in craft malls I cant imagine they'd like it much to have that to clean up. Thanks again ---- man I love this board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candle Man Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 If you use beans and they get old, where you can't smell them anymore, just grind them up and use the grounds, grinding will release the oils inside of the bean. Then use these grounds for your new sniffer container.I keep my coffee sniffers in sealed jars. That way the coffee scent lasts longer. I also change my beans about 3-6 months so their strong enough to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliette Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I use beans in a glass spice jar I got at Cost plus world market. It has the shaker top so I didn't have to worry about spilling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
