Kimmi Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hello Everyone,We recently moved to southwestern Indiana and shipping on my candle supplies is forcing me to re-think my candle business. I have been making candles for 3 years and have always had to ship my supplies from Texas or BCN. I love my supplies but would like to save on shipping but I can't seem to find a close supplier. I have reviewed the newbie links on this sight and have searched using google but have found nothing close enough to drive. I am looking for a supplier in southern Indiana, southern Illinois, or northwestern Kentucky. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!Kimmi:cool2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimmi Posted October 25, 2006 Author Share Posted October 25, 2006 Thank you both for such fast responses. I used the site with suppliers listed by state. What a great site!!! Unfortunately all of them are too far of a drive...looks like I will just have to swallow the shipping costs! Thank you again!Kimmi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everito Bandito Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 You're welcome. If you use soy, soycandle.com has very good shipping rates and their fragrance oils are really good also. I had a 50 pound case of soy shipped from them to S.C. several months ago and the shipping was around 16 dollars for roughly 500 miles. I thought that was pretty reasonable..

Georgia Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Alabaster has a branch in Louisville, if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelle Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Alabaster advertises their location as Louisville, KY but it is actually in Jeffersonville, IN. (it is right across the river) I used to pick up my supplies but it might be cheaper for you to pay the shipping with the cost of gas these days.

It's off the Gene Snyder, about 20 miles farther than they were in Jeffersonville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
