      I started in September, and testing wicks to get a good product takes longer than you would think. I'm launching in April or May myself. I gave away a ton of candles while I was still figuring out the correct percentages of wax and fragrance oils, temps, containers, etc.
      My advice is to get only one size and type of container to start with. I bought too many different things then got overwhelmed with how each vessel needs a different wick, and how to get the perfect hot throw and burn. Wicking is the devil! I thought I'd be ready to launch in a month or two. Not so .. Testing is absolutely necessary and more time consuming than you realize. Good luck with your business- it's honestly a lot of fun, even during testing!

    Just to say I’ve had a dymo label printer for several years, great for shipping labels, but not for goods as the printer is thermal and the words disappear after a while, and especially when the weather is warm . I learned this the hard way and had to re label my goods .thanks for you tips x

    • @amylee5088
      @amylee5088 Před 3 měsíci +1

      I don't use lids on my candles, but I shrinkwrap them. I use fragrance labels on the shrink-wrap. Since the shrink-wrap comes off before the candle gets lit, it's ok to use a cheap thermal printer. Sadness so much money

    I enjoy watching all your videos. I starring watching them when I need help what kind of vessel I wanted to use. Where to you order your vessels from and size ?
    Since you were a teacher, just do sub teaching. And then you would have time to stay devoted to your business.

    Do you have any recipes that you use frequently I am having an issue with finding a good recipe for how many candles I need and I have different sized jars and always end up needing more wax or left over wax 🤦🏽‍♀️
