pamperme Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 ..but I have been told that I should do this HUGE festival at an amusement park in the fall ...I think it is the last week of Sept. Anyway. I am not doing as many candles except for what I make in Bath & Body. Do you have any good FALL bath & body suggestions? Scents or products that I should start working on now and testing so I can do this in Sept. :undecided I have my basic line but I figured I should throw in some fall themed stuff as well. Pink Sugar does not sound fall to me...nor does Sweet Pea or Spring Rain and those are my best sellers. What are you fall best sellers?

JacquiO Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Sweet Cinn Pumpkin is awesome! Apple somethings - Apple Cinn, Apple Pie - Apples and Roses is a great combo!Also with fall shows it's good to add a little x-mas to the mix. Sugar Cookies, Gingerbread, Fig combos and such. Just some ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin? Where is that from? Is it body safe? Sounds wonderful.I might need to throw in some cappuccino hazlenut and chocolate sugar scrubs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkie68 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Amish Harvest (Peaks) does well in the fall for me, as does Cuppa Chai, Please (Daystar). And I just got it, so don't know yet how it will sell, but I love Chocolate Latte from Greenleaf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Really? In bath & body? Now the Chai and latte ones sound pretty darn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sporadic Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I like Peppercorn. Also, Red Currant is an excellent choice for fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 OOOhhh....forgot about red current. I have that one from Peaks. Love it in Bath Bombs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquiO Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin is a BBW dupe. It's yummy. The one I get from SOS is body safe. I was also thinking of a Spice Chai or Vanilla Chai would make great B&B fall scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGirl Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Orange Clove and Spiced Cranberry usually work well for me.Good luck with that HUGE show -- I'm jealous, but not envying the work at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michi Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Yep, Amish Harvest rocks in B&B and makes an awesome CP soap-it's a FAV. In the Fall and Winter months! Anything pumpkin was very popular last year with all the big names, so that would probably do good for you this Fall.Even Japenese Cherry Blossom might be nice since it has an oriental spicey flare which is a little heavier scent which IMO is worn more in the colder months.Any of the heavier more "wintery" perfume types would be a nice addition as well.

LovelyLathers Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I do well with anything pumpkin, cranberry, asian sandalwood, dragons blood, Amish harvest (peaks), Apple Jack, orange clove, and musks for men. Also in the fall I do well with bath melts, bath salts, foot and hand balms for the dry weather. Lip balms sell well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Sounds like you have a lot of scent suggestions, so I will do some product suggestions!Scrubs, butters, bath teas, bath melts, soaks, etc. Usually people take more baths in the winter, so those would probably sell well!Good luck!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like to "nest" in the winter and cozy up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asheebeans Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Smaller stuff has been selling better, too. Bath bombs, votives, soaps, smaller size lotions, etc. People just don't have alot of disposable income these days. As far as fragrances go, Backwoods Pumpkin Cornbread did well for me in candles last year. In soap, it is BCN's Closeout Pumpkin Pie all the way! ( I hit the mother lode last year and got two pounds of it--enough to keep me until I find a replacement. It was discontinued so you will have to haggle, sell your firstborn, etc to get some off of the classies.) I like Hearfelt's Apple Danish in candles and it is soap safe too! Cinnamon is another good one, cinnamon bun namely. Good luck and have fun! I am looking forward to the shows this year. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeAnna_EC Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 i'll just jump in with my suggestion, lip balm poured in clear tubes like candy corn colors maybe with some vanilla flavoring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Thanks all!Got some great ideas but still in a panic. This is a huge festival and I have never ever done a festival. Have no idea how much stuff to take :undecided There is approx 20,000 people over 2 days...in an amusement park the last week it is open. It has been around for a very long time. Any ideas on how much stuff I should take? My best selling items are sugar scrubs, body butter, lotion, soap, bath bombs and 8oz jelly jar candles.
