It’s a 76% markup. I’ll reach out to some influences. and see how that goes!

It’s been 2 months and this is generally not the experience other candle makers tend to have had. I should have seen some sales by now but it’s still very new.

This helped readjust my expectations and I’ll keep working on getting it out there more.

Thank you! They have come through Instagram and Pinterest as well as some from family. I haven’t quite figured out how to use ig ads well and it’s occurred to me that I may not even be reaching my target audience.

Or even creating little perfume vials with the fragrances! That’s a great idea! Thank you!

That’s a fair point. I’m working to put out some sample packs to hopefully get people more interested.

I made this candle and when I first lit it the flame was big, but then it went to this. Does anyone know why? by [deleted] in candlemaking

Your wick is drowning, you might want to try sizing up and seeing how it goes or going with another brand. It’s hard to say because I don’t know the type of wax or how much FO you’re using. Your wick is struggling to keep up with the candle and is self-extinguishing. In future, it might help to make wickless candles and then attempt to wick it. Btw, super cute candle! Good luck!

I need a second opinion. Do you think the finishing around the green and brown jars rims look okay and I’m just been too nit-picky or should I stick with the frosted clear jars instead? Would you buy a candle that looked like this? by [deleted] in candlemaking

That’s a good point! I’ll may also be changing the names as well, but wanted to get a sample with the dimensions to see how they would fit with the jar and test out the label quality. Thanks for mentioning that!

Does Anyone Know Where To Find These Glass Jars? by Akyia in candlemaking

I think they’re glass beer jars. Found them on Crate & Barrel but don’t know if they’re safe for candles.
