    I’m so happy to bring this video to you after many request on how I package my candles for shipping. Especially during this intense heatwaves we’ve been having all over the country. I really try to do the best insulation possible for my candles, so far (knock on wood) all my shipments have made it successfully and without any issues so far. It’s very important to pack the candles very tight, and not leaving any space where the candle can move inside the box, because that is what causes them to break and get damage during the shipping process. Please join me for my weekend livestream this Sunday July 31 a short, but fun stream to answer your questions, share ideas, and bring your favorite topics to the table too. See you then, Michael

    Michael I adore you. I’m so stressed about shipping in hot weather and have been searching for ways that won’t make the package weigh several pounds more. Came across your video at the perfect time ❤

      @CandleRomance  Před 3 měsíci +2

      I've stopped using them because nobody really used them, no traffic so it was a waste of time tbh, save your time and effort.

    I need to ship candles from Georgia to Florida and it's been around 98 degrees lately. I was wondering if you would suggest using USPS, UPS or FedEx ground when shipping candles during the heat?

    • @CandleRomance
      @CandleRomance  Před měsícem

      I would suggest UPS and FedEx and last resort USPS

  • @aliceuriarte4478

    I was wondering you use two boxes but what is the sizes of each boxes. I know you said 6x6x6 so what is size of the other. Love you video. Thank you Alicia

    • @CandleRomance
      @CandleRomance  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Sorry but I don't remember the other box size. Typically if I'm going to ship a box inside a box I use a box that's about 1 to 2 inches smaller than the bigger box so I have room to have the heat bubble wrap around it.

    What is it called the foil looking stuff he wrapped around the candle????? I’m so lost?

    • @CandleRomance
      @CandleRomance  Před měsícem

      It's the bubble wrap used for shipping that has insulation/metallic coating, you can find it at amazon or Uline.

    Thank you Michael,
    Beautiful well done. Perhaps you can tell us the business side, in terms of what's needed besides insurance. Is it costly to trademark the name of a candle? How to get a logo maybe once a month you can share your do and don't with us. I love you Michael 💐
