In Nov. it will be 2 years that I have been doing this full time. :cool2: Love it!!

Working in my PJ's with no make up, and a cup of coffee in the mornings is one of the great perks!!! LOL

Then I crank up the tunes and get pouring in my candle room!!:D

Run a business out of state. Stay at home Dad. I think it will be another year before it is going full steam to be considered a fulltime job. Last year it was full time only a couple monthes. But things change quickly.

I work 2 jobs and have the candle business. I don't sell to the scale you all do and I don't really have or really want any wholesale accounts at this time.

I am not in a position to leave my part time job but I am seriously considering reducing my hours even further to put more time into the candles and soap. I am also looking for a new full time job that might afford more time with the business

In the near future I would love to have a shop but in the meantime, I am making candles for friends and family and some associates. I would love to have a couple of wholesale accounts and try out a couple of craft shows but that won't be for another year or so. I still need to perfect some techniques before I ever think of selling on that level. I must say that I am truly addicted to making candles and soaps and it's all I talk about so me having this as a full-time business in the future will be a reality and not just a dream.;)
