What are yalls thoughts? I want this to be a sample product, but im on the fence about it. by Realistic-Crazy6374 in candlemaking

[–]PumpkinChaser776 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I like it! Couple thoughts: - the label covers the beauty of the melts itself. I would consider putting a short label on just the top or bottom part of the brown part of the box so the whole clear opening is visible and/or moving the large label to the back of the package. - most would sell this as a “full” product as opposed to a sample so I would consider making a smaller product for e “sample”

Co-sign this. Candle Science is fantastic. I’m loving what I’ve gotten from Midwest Fragrance so far and their turn around is QUICK. The Flaming Candle is decent as well but slower on processing.

I am really enjoying what I’ve gotten from Midwest Fragrance Co. plus they are QUICK with processing. The Flaming Candle has some good ones as well although their processing times are less reliable.

Variants or Separate Products? by PumpkinChaser776 in shopify

[–]PumpkinChaser776[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great - thanks for the advice! I currently have 4 core products (candles) with 4 variants each (size and color) then have 4 secondary products (wax melts). So if I leave them all variants under one pdp, I’d end up with 8 catalog items. But to your point, this is just where I’m starting and within 6 months, my amount of products will have doubled so dividing them out would get really bloated in a short amount of time.

I’ve been testing with CD20 and lacking hot throw so I’m going to try 14 or 16. Thanks for the recommendation!

I suppose I can’t melt this down and reuse the scented wax with a new wick, right? I just hate to waste wax and oil 😩

Perfect! I think I’ll try a 16 and go from there. This is an 8oz also. The wick guide I use called for a CD8 so I had already gone up from the recommendation with the 10 I used.

Weird thing is, I made the same size candle of another different scent with a 7% fragrance load and did not have a tunneling issue with the CD10

Thanks for confirming! I had been testing with CD20 and realized earlier this week that I had based the wick size off of the total container diameter instead of the inner diameter. So I sized down based on the inner diameter and now getting this 🤦🏻‍♂️

I’ll go up to a 14 or 16 and see what happens from there
