pcbrook Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I was approached by a potential wholesale buyer this weekend. She said she usually bought the 1812 Candles but shipping for her is a killer and she was thinking of switching. She bought a couple of my candles as a tester to see how she liked them.I have done google searches and bing searches and cannot find this 1812 Candle Company.Does anyone know about them?

marcuset Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) They are actually popular over here in the NE sec of WI, many of the larger home decor stores carry them in Green Bay & Appleton. They do soy. I know someone mentioned they used to be a member on craftserver a while back. Edited March 23, 2011 by marcuset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Heard of them but don't know anything about them. Seems to me someone posted about them a while back mentioning that they carried scents with old colonial recipe type names to them. I could be wrong.The thread was in the fragrance forum.

pleasureridgecandles Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 http://www.1803candles.com/Is this the company you are talking about? I remembered the same discussion as a few others here did and had to search back many pages to find it. Here's the link to the post where they were discussed on CT.http://craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95405I had never heard of them either until the above posted thread. HTH. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbrook Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 I know the lady mentioned they were located in Iowa but I could not find any info. You would think if they are that big they would have a website or something. I forgot to ask her what kind of wax they were but at least now I know they are soy. Well, hopefully she likes what she bought from me and wants to order more. I don't do soy anymore. I switched to palm so if she is looking for natural she can still get it from me.

AlwaysWondering Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Grrrrrr. I've had another thread going on finding larger clamshells that actually hold 3.5 oz of wax, many supplier claim it but they only hold 2.8 ounces in reality. I just checked the 1803 canddle website and their clamshells melts, they claim, are 4 oz. Where is this packaging coming from???????????

TraciS Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Have you called Impact and asked them if they are available? A mfg should be able to tell you if it is standard or custom size and quote the prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
