7Angela7 Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I have a show coming up, and have been testing 3x3.5" pillars for months now. I'm new to pillars, so I was just doing basic, creamy pillars. From what I've read, people normally buy pillars more as a decoration then to burn, and like to sometimes buy them in sets. Since the 3x3.5" size is all I do right now, I'm debating on if I should even make them to bring to the show. Is this size popular with your customers? I myself am more of a container person, and would probably just buy pillars as a set for decoration.As always, thanks for your opinion!

mystical_angel1219 Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Tis the season for gift giving, and those would make nice, not too expensive gifts. I would offer them. People love things in cute packaging, ready to give.Take a look at how Robin bundles her small octagon pillars. Those look absolutely fabulous and you could come up with one of your own ideas.

RobinInOR Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I used to sell lots of 3x3. You could dress them up with a candle plate, or even stick them inside a box (white or kraft depending on your style) and do a really cool label - kind of an upscale gift...

MichelleOH Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I sell a lot of 3x3 pillars. Most of the time they are bought for a gift or display. I would take them:grin2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I think we move more 3x3.5s than votives at all our shows. We've only had a few say that they only get candles for decoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanaE Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I just received an order for 15 of the 3x3, and 5 of the 3x6's. I have to say that's a first for me, as everyone always bought the 3x6, and this is my first order of the 3x3's. DanaE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DolphinLVR Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 This year, we have sold more 3x4's than we had in the past couple of years. I haven't made many 3x6's so on my price sheet I say that they could order. I think we are selling more this year due to our changing of wax's.HTHJeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
