Tess Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Ok I need help. (Ya Ya Hawaiian, we all know I need help-lol)Seriously though, I am a creative goof. Here is my dillema, I have votives that I display on my riser in 4's according to fragrance. However biz is boomin and 4 per scent is not enough, So I need to find a way to put more out without using more room. (Space is limited) I am trying to get a pic of what it looks like now. I am thinking something along the lines of little bins or something, to put more votives, and something I can angle toward the customer. But I have no idea what to use as a riser. If you have pics I would LOVE to see them. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VerticallyEnhanced Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 This won't angle em towards the customer, but I have always loved the look of votives in the big ole old fashioned candy jars. I have even seen some replicas at wally world. You could fill them, put a cute label on the outside and then keep extras under the table. Does that make any sense?? lol...I don't do stand alone votives (just pour mine in the flowerpots and sell them) so alas, no picture.

Dolphin146 Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 http://www.gershelbros.com/product1404.html Hi I bought me one of these. And it really works well. It also holds alot of candles. Regina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VerticallyEnhanced Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I looked through my bookmarks... found thishttp://soapmakingbusiness.com/Handmade_Soap_Displays/Floor_Displays.htmlMaybe you have someone handy who can look at it and duplicate a table top model. I would offer my hubby's services (oh-he-who-can-look-at- something-and-build-it-for-me) but alas, he is booked up (with me) till 2054.

I wanted to do this too, so they could just open a grab. Only thing was they are big and bulky. Do you think they would take up too much room?The ones I am thinking of are the ones are kinda like these, too big? : Of course I would need like 24 of these things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See my show is next weekend, and hubby was supposed to be on vacation next week, and was going to make a display for me. But due to things at work he has to work now, and I am stuck finding a display stat! Alas he might have to make them still, but I need a plan if things dont work out (which they rarely do lol)Thanks all keep them coming!!

Tess Posted November 7, 2007 Author Share Posted November 7, 2007 This one is perfect! I wonder if this is something I could swing on my own. It seems pretty simple. I just need to find the baskets. http://www.gershelbros.com/product807.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Dollar Tree has some great baskets. I tilt my baskets so they face the custoemr and then wire them to the stand so they stay put (sorta) :undecided Takes forever to set up though.

Lorrie Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Tess,Those baskets look like 1/2 bushel baskets. I know that all the produce stands around here use them so maybe check and see if you can get some there.Glad to see you posting again!

Stella1952 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Jadryga, that looks remarkably simple to build! I like that one, too! With bicycle tires, it could actually roll and be movable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
