ajna Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 im adding a new line to my products. soy candles :tiptoe: Now im trying to decide if I want them in tins or frosted tumblers. At first, I thought tins because they can help recycle once the candle is used up, but glass can also be recycle.What do yall think? whats more popular? Im going for an elegant looking candle.

Paupau Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I am in the same boat, I am going with tins, because I just like the way they look and the fact that they are easy to transport. Also, unlike glass, you can't see the sides if you have a bad pour, so until I get more experience...it's tin:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paupau Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I forgot to add, my focus is function, nice looking but not elegance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajna Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Yea, I also considered the fact that you would see air bubbles in the glass and that tins are alot easier to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I was in Yankee the other day and their soy line is in tins now. Didn't seem to hurt their sales at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meg_10 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I like Tins, due to less issues during shipping, they show no flaws on sides LOLMeg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella1952 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I think glass containers are a much more decorative product and offer better lighting because the light glows through the wax and cannot do so through metal. I make both tins and glass containers and the glass far outsells the tins, but not all markets are the same - some folks sell more tins than they do glass.
