I'm making 150 small 1.5 ounce jar candles tomarrow. I have 43

different scents.

Gardening and making candles seems to be what I do now.

That's a lot of work doing up so many. Are you thinking of maybe

starting up what some call a " cottage industry business " where you

would make these candles available to consumers? And 43 different

scents ... that's quite the variety to choose from.

How did you learn to make them and do you use glass jars (or would

glass become too hot and crack)? You really have me interested in

what you're up to these days, .

Congrats. It's a cool site. All of the flavors look enticing and I'm just blown away that they're made out of soy. That's just great that you're doing something that's fun and shipping orders out to customers already. I'll have to make an order for the holidays.

The only way you can do that is by emailing, you would be the first. The site gets several thousand visitors, I have interacted with them. Just I am not ready to sell online. Most people have been local but they are addicted to them, they like them. Scented candles all year around, fudge browney! nick <drumthis2001@...> wrote: Congrats. It's a cool site.

I am starting to do teal ights next month as samples. People like my

candles allot and I will have around 150 plus special order scents

availible by the 3rd month of next year. It is morel ike a luxury

service where I am a candler and people order the candles. They are

highly scented and personally I never smelled candles so good, they

are the strongest possible.

[Guest guest]

Currently I am making peach pie filling candles. There is only one

left of those from the last batch and it is a great scent. For gourmet

I use the best scents I can get which are a bit more expensive,

expecially in the per unit cost ratio.

I am trying to get over 100 to choose from. There will be bakery and

sweets, floral and a designer series of mixed scents and speciality

scents.

I'd imagine you could sell your stuff to health stores as a healthy alternative to other candles since they are made with soy wax and these certain essential oils. I mean, you'd be getting a steady income from it. The ones sold at the health stores today are the same thing and all they have are ornamental ribbons and a circular card that explains the ingredients and so forth. I figure besides the internet there are other avenues of demand since you're working with bulk quantities. <nathaninfortuna@...> wrote: Currently I am making peach pie filling candles.

The wax is all natural but the scented oil is not. From what I know

it is hard to get essencial oils to work in candles. However there

are some, certainly not bakery or sweets, something like lavender.

Essencial oil candles are for a micro-industry which is called

auromatherepy. I planed on getting into that and have already

sourced suppliers for essencial oils. They are VERY expensive and so

the candles will be expensive as well.

Your candles sound very interesting , sound like some great

smells :-)

When I've bought scented candles in the past I have found they smell

great, but when I light them they do not seem to produce the scent

they smell of - I wonder why this is.

There has to be enough oil being heated and oil emited into the air compared to the melted wax. The ones I make, at least the ones I have tried all seem to do fairly well with making a rooms air scented. People who usually like scented candles but want more scent in the air tend to graduate to the oil burners and wax tarts. greebohere <julie.stevenson16@...> wrote: Your candles sound very interesting , sound like some great

Well , I can tell you since Yankee stopped making there Honeysuckle wax tart I haven't been able to find a good one. They now make a sweet honeysuckle, its too sweet for me. I am alergic to a lot of smells but love candles and wax tarts, but the smells have to be food inspired or fresh flower inspired or they make me sneeze, even some of the ones I just mentioned, I can't wait to try some of your candles, how do we go about ordering, send you an e-mail or a letter with check or what?. I would like to get a few to try, definately Honeysuckle if you come up with one, I know with you aspie nose I shouldn't have a problem with it.

I love scented candles! Scents are associated with places or people and

for me honeysuckle ( Moms Avon perfume that my cousin overused by

smearing an entire jar on herself), lilac (the bush outside my bedroom

window/springtime), lily of the valley ( my Grandmother's home) and wild

rose (the path through the forest preserve next to my childhood home)

let my mind wander back to my youth. My sister likes the candles with

the food scents but they tend to make me want to eat something sweet.

I had found a scented candle once that I adored and used too quickly.

When I went back to buy another the company no longer made it. I

believe it had Ylang Ylang, Mimosa, and possibly Jasmine and the

effect it had on me was ultra calming, relaxed, and happy. Do you make

any candles with these oils?

Good luck with the business.

All the scents you mentioned I can get and plan to. Ylang Ylang I saw, it is a designer scent and is a bit more expensive.Kim <6emini@...> wrote: , I love scented candles!

Ylang ylang is really nice :-) using it in my oil burner here at mo'.

I don't find it too expensive to purchase here (England, under £5

anyways) and is an essential oil, so a little goes a long way :-)

I must admit to quite liking Jasmine too, but prefer it natural as in

when my Jasmine plant flowers, which for some reason is not every

year :-( but wonderful when it does, highly scented little white

flowers :-) Night scented stock is quite nice too.

Amazing the affect of scents on people and all the connections that

go with them :-)

I wanted to know more about ylang ylang and found out why I might enjoy the scent so much. It is the scent of Chanel No.5 perfume, my mother's favorite and most often worn perfume. Why I didn't make the connection before is beyond me.

They have all sorts of scented oils for known perfumes. Also they have zodiac scents and Feng Shui. They have premium, consmetic and manufacture grade quality. I go with premium and designer only.Kim <6emini@...> wrote: I wanted to know more about ylang ylang and found out why I might enjoy the scent so much.

Please check the information on boxes of scented candles.After I had a bad

reaction to some I lit I read " MAY PRODUCE AN ALLERGIC REACTION "

Too late for me,but as we all do our best to move towards better health,this is

a toxic load we can do without.These candles contain(

2-Benzyldeneoctanal, 3-Phenylprop-2-1-ol) phenolic aromatic ketonether Next time

I just open the window for fresh air and wait till Spring to smell the sweet

peas.

Scented stuff (including people!) is a bane of my life and made working in an

office really unpleasant. I tend to get an asthmatic cough response and

irritated airways, from many fragrances. Morning commutes are also unpleasant

for that reason, as everyone has freshly applied their perfume, aftershave,

shower gel, scented lotions, hairspray, etc etc.

I look forward to an enlightened day when everything isn't full of strongly

scented chemicals! Few of these substances have been safety tested other than

for contact rash.

Though, natural scents can have the same effect on my airways - sweet peas and

highly scented mini-daffodils or hycacinths, stargazer lillies - I can't have

them in the house.

My daughter gave me a large scented candle that crackles and

flickers giving the effect of a log fire, but with it comes a perfume of

cinnamon and ginger. As soon as I took the lid off the top of the tin, the

smell almost knocked me into Kingdom Come - or Gone as in this case. I didn't

know I had allergies to anything, but I had to put the lid back on and open the

windows and doors as my chest became immediately effected and I started

coughing almost uncontrollably. If anybody would like this candle, you are very

welcome. However, I threw the box out and there is nothing written on the very

pretty tin about the contents. It had the same effect as Joss-sticks, which I

cannot stand.

Hi,

I read ages ago that joss sticks (inscense sticks) are known to be

carcinogenic. Best to just open the windows really.

The uncontrollable coughing and sneezing is what happens to me when I get in a

shop full of new clothes. It means I can only clothes shop for about 10

minutes, then I have to leave. In my case I suspect that it is formaldehyde

which is used in the dying process on some fabrics, to prevent pilling (little

bobbles).....
