graywritingdog Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hello,I make electric candles. Been making them for a little while now. Here's one of my new ones. It's my Birthday Cake candle scented FROSTED Cupcake! Smells so good!I place these on a cream or rusty candle pan and package it with cello tied with raffia. Any comments or how I could improve would be helpful![ATTACH]11103[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graywritingdog Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 I ordered 170 candle pans but they were 1/2inch too small. So I had to order another 100 candle pans. I'm waiting on my pans or I would have posted it complete. Here's some candles that are in the package. I make little ornies to give my package some pop.I think they look much better in person.

graywritingdog Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have a ton of silicone molds in the shapes of: Buttons, apples, gingerbead men, pineapples, pumpkins, etc that I make along with the electric candles. I just pour the left over wax into a few of the embed molds, let them harden, take my drimel tool and drill a hole to hang them from. It's super easy and it addes alot to my packages.I'm addicted to these electric candles. I've sold close to 30 in a month and 1/2 and have 20 on order just waiting for my candle pans.I found a little antique shop that is going to let me set up in their shop. I'm going to be offering about 10 differnt items, no real candles yet, I haven't had the time to test. But I'll have:Electric candlessmelly jellyfixin'spantry cakessugar conesSoy tartsGourmet soy tarts (in shapes of cookies and the like)and I make the jar lightsWe will see how the shop thing goes. But if it falls through I'm doing well enough on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erinmfritz Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Very cool. Good luck with the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 That looks so cute! The only thing I can see that might improve it some would be if the walls were a bit thinner where some of the light would glow through.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graywritingdog Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 The light showes beautifully. The walls are a bit thicker then some molds but I find only the really dark reds have trouble with the light comming through. I'll post a pic of it glowing![ATTACH]11157[/ATTACH]I couldn't get my camera to take a great pic, but you get the idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graywritingdog Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 I forgot to add. The walls are not as thick as the top of the candle. I would stay it's not quite and inch thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Oh yeah, that does have a nice glow That pic shows it much better than the one in the first post, probably because of the light level in the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graywritingdog Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Yes, it's $3.00 extra and optional. I strongly suggest that they buy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
