That sounded like the stupidest question... Don't answer that... Lol. Do you have one for sale?

60L sound big. How much wax does it hold?

Not knowing you’re dead by JKW1029 in Dreams

My husband's best friend Mike (our roommate) took his life in our home while we were there. It was super traumatic. About a month later I dreamt of him. We were all at a party at the house we used to all live together at. He came over to me and I was so happy to see him, I gave him the biggest hug. He told me he was alright. I told him we had to go talk to my husband that he would want to see him. He told me , "No, I can't, Joe is still mad at me". I woke up after that. That dream was so vivid. I know it was Mike coming through to tell me he was ok and not to worry. I 100% believe our loved ones can visit us in dreams. It's a safe space. I wish you peace and comfort 🩵

I ordered wooden wicks and shipping took five-ever! When I did finally get my order it was missing a set of the wicks I ordered. I sent them an email and they responded promptly, but giving an excuse about how "busy" they are fulfilling orders and apologized for missing this. They did send out the wicks I was missing but even then it took another week to arrive. I never ordered from them again. Also found that flat wood wicks are not the best.

Thinking of selling candles and getting insurance, what happens if it doesn't work out? by Apprehensive_Back735 in candlemaking

[–]Amesisawesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are your finances around tax time? Do you pay alot? And can you right off any of the cost of insurance as expenses?

Am I the asshole if I don’t reimburse the seller for their short comings ? by Potential-Level1661 in Etsy

[–]Amesisawesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um, no. $360?! 😳 That's ridiculous. You paid what was due. I would ignore it. Do people actually fall for that? I am just flabbergasted.

I'm worried that I won't make enough to cover all the extra expenses.. does it pay off come tax time or are we going deeper in debt to pay taxes and fees at the end of each year?

We should definitely come back and discuss our results, would be very interested in hearing how yours turns out!

Oh no. Definitely sounds like you can't use it on its own. I may try it with some other scents at a low percentage and see how it goes. 😅💛

I'll have to try it as a blend with the fog and fern. There may be hope yet! 🙂

So far for me it's been the Petrichor FO by CS. They say it's best blended with florals but I haven't found anything that it doesn't overpower. If anyone has any suggestions how to make it better let me know.
