- Hi friends! In this studio vlog I am making 450 lip balms with the new flood trays that I showed in a previous video. I am working on scaling up my business this next year and trying to increase production by investing in new equipment.

Go to a grocery store, and ask for some pallets. You can sand and paint them similar to your mini fridge colors. It will get things off the floor, and be astherically pleasing!
Love that idea, thank you!
Easy Peasy~ Just cover a card board box with Pretty Paper like the fridge and put the box over the Uglies! It helps with the noise and is pleasing to the eyes when you chance a look that direction~
that's actually a great idea!! 💕
Well if you ever come to Canada, Canadian tire has blue and black and I think a red one and maybe an all black one.
I really enjoyed your video. I completely understand the need for aesthetics in your studio. I love how you did your mini fridge. As for the shop vac, girl grab a can of Krylon paint and go to down. Paint it a pretty color. Orange is Rigid's branding color so it will be a really long time before we see a pretty blue or green shop vac, LOL!
Thank you so much! Love this idea with the paint!
Very nice soothing video. Just one request ~ please talk about in a video what preservatives should be used in a lip balm to increase its shelf life (say 2 years) as I am planning to start a small scale business of lip balms. Love from India ❤️❤️❤️
Just put wallpaper on the shop vac too 😂
Omg yess I totally should!! 🤣
I’m with you on aesthetic things can’t have things that are garish and out of place x I want a pink fridge but can’t afford one lol x
The same way you did the fridge, you can spray paint the vac to your desired color. It worked for me.
Love that idea! I may do just that, thanks!
Possibly put the shock vack equipment in a cubby and cover with a curtain. Similar to a country kitchen sink!!!
Great idea!
Take a big box and cover it with wrapping paper and put it over the unsightly equipment!
I still haven't done a thing with them but that's a great idea!
You’re not crazy😂 it’s just makes the space so much more enjoyable and happy to have everything pretty haha! It’s like work motivation lol
It totally does make me want to work more/harder when everything is pretty!
Love ur mini fridge. I am with u on scaling up to prep for the start of my farmers market season
Thank you! Totally takes the stress away when you can prep and not feel behind!
Yes I have done them and had to do a lot of last min things
This may seem silly, and time consuming but you could do the same thing you did to your fridge to your shop vac and the item next to it! 😁 that way it’s close to your brand and pretty. (I love the Gilmore Girls and one episode Lorelei dressed up a hammer for Rory when she did charity work to build a house. The idea I gave you kind of reminds me of that 😁)
I love that idea! I too am a huge Gilmore Girls fan as I actually grew up in the town it was modeled after which is seriously so quaint and pretty!
Your kidding? Oh my gosh I’m so jealous! That is amazing! 😁
I would try hitting the moulds with a heat gun first to melt as much of the lip balm out before washing. It's great to see how they worked for you!
Yes I did that and it was super helpful! Now I just need my lip balm tubes to not be on backorder 😂 so I can make more!
You showed us how much you put in the batch but not what you put in it? Can you post that? I love the mini fridge super smart and so cute
Colorful shop vacs would be amazing!
Omg just found your channel. Thanks so much for all the information!
So happy you found me!! 🥰
Congratulation on hitting 1K! You so deserves it !!! Love love love your vlog. Now the sky is the limit! You go girl!!! Much much love Caitlin x

Hope you had a lovey xmas Caitlin x look forward to watching your content in 2022 xx Christine from Australia.
Thank you Christine! I can't wait to share even more next year. I hope you had a lovely Christmas and enjoy ringing in 2022!
I have been doing the same thing cleaning and decluttering
Feels so good to have a clean space right?!?
Just found your channel and loving your content and your energy! Thanks for sharing and can't wait to see more for 2022! Cheers from Australia 😃
Wow you're the sweetest thank you!! 💕
Just use some Rustoleum paint and spray paint the shop vac! It works!
I may just do that!! 👍
@@caitlinblue Let us see your finished product! Lol!
Amazing content Caitlin, I went full time this year after open my business part time 3 years ago. Your videos have helped a lot and inspired me in so many ways!
Happy New Year, and keep up the amazing work! 👏 🥳
Hi Mekisha! Wow that’s amazing girl congrats on going full time!! I’m so grateful you’re enjoying my videos and I hope you have a wonderful 2022!
@@caitlinblue Thank you so much 💖
I missed you glad to see you back. #inspiration
Awe you’re too sweet! Hope you have a great New Years and I’ll be ramping up my videos for next year!
@@caitlinblue I can’t wait
I want a pink or purple shop vac 😅
Oooo! Some body/hair oils would be nice💖
I was actually just researching body oils! Love this as a more natural way to moisturize!
maybe get flower decals and put on the shop vac. I have seen so many do it to mixers and stuff so why not sop vacs.
Ooo such a good idea! Everyone’s really good I got me inspiration here so I may have to work in this sober than later!
Do you sanitize the lip balm tubes first or do they come sanitized in the bag?
They are already sanitized from my supplier, as long as you keep the bag/box secure and nothing can contaminate the tubes while you store them.
Can you share where you got those bins with the wheels on them, from?
Yes! They're so good and from amazIng amzn.to/3BUOf3K if that link doesn't work it's linked in my studio tour video!
@@caitlinblue Thank you!
OR.....put a table over them with a table skirt to hide them.
For your mold, you have tried 5 times your recipe and 6 times your recipe… maybe the right spot might be 5.5 times your recipe? 🤔Shop Vac have made colored shop vac in the past but I have only seen it in the smaller model… mine is grey and purple… got it long time ago in liquidation because it have been discontinued… good luck to find one with a lovely color 😊
You could paint those items that are unattractive.
That’s a good idea! Thanks so much for watching!
