CraftyChris Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) I haven't been on in awhile. We moved, and now I'm pregnant (5 weeks left and our new little boy will be here!!!)I have been busy with getting new staff trained, and our fundraiser and wholesale programs lined up, so I will be able to take a bit of time off when our new little one makes his grand entry!Thought I would share some of our creations...Some of these are for wholesale, some for our school fundraiser programs, and others just me fooling around, trying to come up with new stuff for our spring lines (eekk)1- a fundraiser event ordered 30 of these, 3 wickers. They had to be "old world prim" with a light woodsy cinnamon scent. You can't tell from the pic but the muslin is coffee stained, and rubbed to look dirty.2-apple raspberry dish--good seller3- plum cake and cinamon pecan cake4- these jars are 10oz. They went wholesale to a chain of drug stores, we did 15 scent in all for them. I LOVE this jar, easy to wick, nice size, clean looking and simply.5- Spiced orange, this is me fooling around. I love this scent, so these were for me!6- Caramel apple tureens. We made them in the spiced orange and gingerbread also. Good sellers in the fall.7- parfait... a classic8- this biggie is layered in scents. Not the best seller, but I think they are cute.

CraftyChris Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 They all look great. My favorite is #1. I'm assuming you use all paraffin?Depends. I use mostly paraffin, but use gel or soy (or a blend of waxes) to get desired effects. The tureens are a blend, the sundae a blend of all 3... and so on. Containers are paraffin.

beechcreekcandles Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Congratulations on the upcoming birth of your son! I wanted to thank you for the tour you gave us when we visited your store in the summer. Visiting my old home town of 30+ years and seeing all the changes was interesting too. Hope you're settling in to the house as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
