Guest EMercier Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 This is not totally finished. I'm still adding products and playing with the wording and such. I've overhauled my entire website. I needed something to match my products and my style. I would like to give a HUGE THANK YOU to sweetcam68. She is the best. She was very quick and gave me exactly what I wanted. If you want a good webset, then go with her. She's a sweetheart as well. I signed up with handcraft market and I love it! It's a little confusing at first, but I have the hang of it. I still have to set up my Mal's cart.Check it out, let me know what you thinkhttp://www.scentsbyeilena.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherie Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Very, very nice Eilena! Congrats on the new website opening. Are you using Mal's premier cart or the free cart with DIY site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EMercier Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I think it's Mal's premier. I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meredith_D Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Your products look great, especially the labels. One thing I noticed, I saw pictures of body butter and clamshells, but nowhere to buy them (aside from in a gift set.) The site is easy to navigate and read. Good job!

cozyaromas Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Eilena, I really like the Black & White concept, very classic, simple yet elegant. The only problem I noticed was under the soap category, the relaxing soap kinda blends in with the black stand so that it's kinda hard to see the soap itself, then again it could be the resolution on my computer. Overall, I think you've done a great job!!!:highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jldorrington Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 ohh i love it i'm so tempted to do an online party if i didn't think it would interfere with friends and family buying my candles lol but very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris77 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 your website looks awesome....I agree with the black and white theme on the displays, it's great. The only thing I saw that you may want to fix is the pictures that you've used for the flower pot votives.....your wicks are waaayyyy off center. That may deter some of the more candle savy customers from buying those...I would be hesitant myself.That being said, you should be proud of your site....good luck!Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I think everything looks nice, but I noticed you don't have the weight of your soap or your lotion bar listed.Also, I think your lotion bar is incredibly cheap. Something that sounds as rich as cocoa and shea butters would probably be able to sell for at least twice what you're asking. Maybe it's a good way to get people hooked--advertise it for $3 for a limited time as "introductory pricing," but make the regular price $6.

Guest EMercier Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Well as I stated, This is still under construction. I'm not finished. I did notice I didn't put the weight on the soap. I did on my last website. I figured this out late last night. I'm still working on it, but that's one thing I did not over look. My wicks are straight, could be just the picture. I pride myself on straight wicks. As far as the lotion bars, that's my cost. I might have to re-think it later on, but I don't have high costs. Everyone's costs are different from the next. I spoke with someone at SCORE and the suggested that I try to raise some of the prices and see what I can get for them. Instead of getting a following and raising prices.BUT, as far as everything else, I'm very content with the site. I've seen a lot worse.

so-soy Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Yes your site looks great, your products look wonderful but I would increase your prices..I think they are to low also! 5.00 for an 8 oz jelly jar candle is to low! You can get more than that for them! I was also wondering about the wick in that votive..but it could just be the picture..some distortion maybe?? Looks good, and I like the black and white concept also! Very clean looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VerticallyEnhanced Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 From a fellow black and white gal, I LOVE it! Love love love it! Did Becky do you topper? It is wonderful... Did you take the pictures yourself? Awesome all the way around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDammit Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I think everything looks nice, but I noticed you don't have the weight of your soap or your lotion bar listed.I know you have to list the weight on the lotion bar, but is it a must for cp soap? I list the ingredients, but not the weight cuz each bar seems to be different, etc. :undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing I noticed is the label on the middle pot. It looks a bit off as oppose to the labels on your other products. You might want to reconsider retaking this picture so the wicks doesn't look crooked and have a better centered label.Overall your site looks beautiful and elegant. Congratulations!

VerticallyEnhanced Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 And if I would thoroughly read a post, I would see who did your topper. Sorry bout that! Excellent design work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 I love the style of your products and your site. :highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 In your soap descriptions, there are two different fonts used. Not sure if you meant to do that. Congrats on the site, can't wait to see as you add to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Just caught something else, on your website, your co. name is listed as "Scents by elina" In your header on the top, there's no s at the end of Scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deana_P Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 You might want to go back and use spell check on the fragrance descriptions. For instance you have for the Apples and Maple.. " An intoxicating blend of fresh macintaosh apples with woody undertones .."Winter Candy Apple - Bath & Body Works Type ..."A fruitty, clean blend of apples and sweet candied sugar.

kristilkleer Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 I agree as far as your pricing. I thought everything seemed awefully underpriced. You have an awesome product line so far...I'd keep with the upscale theme and charge a little extra. Your site is awesome. I think your pictures look very classic.
