ForHisGlory Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 you mean you dont talk to yourself yet? I open bottles of Fo and think how can I make this better or what can i mix this with to make something most excellent? heheheheActually, I believe I was talking to myself before the candles came along. If only this wax would talk back!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leesters Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I read all of this, and think I might be getting myself into trouble. Should I just walk away now before the addiction grabs me? Will I be able to just make candles I need and move on? Am I going to be selling retirement accounts just to buy wax? I'm scared now! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course if you are selling you will need your inventory up first, which will cost some... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavenScentU Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Yes you can go broke with candles. I have been making candles for 8 years and my first year was so deceiving because I made a huge profit at all my shows. Then after that I made good money but it wasn't the same and the past two years I made more money than I ever had. As for this year it has gotten off to a rough start. So I am going to have to go and hit the pavement to peddle my items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My whole reason for doing the google search on candle making was so I can have fun making my own candles. *laces up the running shoes*Nah, all hobbies are expensive, right? And you just never know what hidden talents are waiting to be primed and wicked, right? Who knows, maybe I'll be the next Donita. Or more likely, I'll probably spend thousands of dollars on a fun hobby, and have plenty of candles decorating my house. And plenty of wax marred furniture, and dye stained clothes.
