Girl!!! You are amazing - how the helllllll do you do it all?! Like serious superwoman and wow you are authentic. Such an inspiration - I just bought my first candle from you 🤗 happy to support such an encouraging maker. And CHRIS for the WIN!! You guys are a good team.
Look at him go! So proud of him and I don’t even know you guys! 😂 I keep trying to get my husband involved. His first project is hitting the candle tops with heat after our weekend event that go a little warmer than expected and messed up several.
This is so sweet ❤ I also own a handmade business on Etsy for bath and body and candles and my husband always wants to help and be a employee… I just don’t want him getting anything messed up 😅❤
It's called a Bakers Rack - I bought one and love it.. I thought i'd keep jars on it after pouring like yous said, but It now is a fragrance oil rolling haven! LOL
Hello, hey you are great and I love your videos, maybe it’s the way you present yourself and you are a real American entrepreneur. I want to say this, if you are buying from Uline, you are paying way to mush for anything you buy from them. For heating your jars, a proofing cabinet is perfect, you can find good used ones cheap.
Y'all are such a amazing couple ! Love seeing y'all work together and just smile and laugh and enjoy what your doing. I have a question, do you change up your wicks due to different fragrance oil or can you use the same no matter what? I'm just starting to try candles and don't know what size or type of wicks or the best jars. Any help on that would be awesome. Thank you
Wao he is fast and good helper for u I m glad the you have a little help Gbu guys I like and enjoy ur channel thank u for the information 💜👍🤗 send my good vive to u guys love this Yess 😉
The trays that you're talking about is called the bakery rack trolleys as you can just slot the tray of candles that you're done pouring into one of the sliders.
Hey doll. Love your videos! They are super informative and helpful. I have a question...where did you get the little containers Chris is using for the fragrance oil? I have been using little throw away dixie cups, but the oil absorbs into them. Thanks in advance!
Thank you for sharing. Well done Hubby. I work in a small space. Love the process. Would you be able to do a video on labels? They do my head in. If you have done one already please share the link. Thanks to you both x
Amazing when husbands get to help out. I have a question or two. Entirely by accident, I used TW 31 tart wax from Virginia Candle Supply for candle making. My candles look amazing and I spent 2 hours making the almost perfect candles. I plan to test the candle and monitor its performance, however, will this be a product I will have to shrink? Your thoughts? Oh, and I have already reached out to the manufacturer and I am hoping for positive feedback. We will see.
hi Erica! question about the wicks, you said you use CDN2 Wicks, Is that a proprietary designation? or is that a common name such as Matte Black Jars? in general, Are wicks name trademarked? Thank you for your time.
Hello, starting a candle business since May of this year 2023, and I would love to know where did you find the silicone measuring cups, those seems very convenient to use especially when doing multiple scents like in this video.
@@lasha3568 it was a custom item from that Etsy shop. He has this wick setter available that can be used for any jar: www.etsy.com/listing/1014815023/wick-setter-3d-printed-5-inches
There was an hour of footage, but it probably took him a few hours from start to finish with prepping and pouring! Honestly waiting for the melting pots to heat up takes the longest time out of anything! Once everything is ready he pours really quickly! I’m always like you’re done already? 😅
Yes! Social media, email marketing, wholesale/private label expansion, plus I also have my UA-cam channel and my ericamariemorris.com website…. So there’s always something to do 😄❤️

Yes! That would be awesome haha
great video, i wonder where did you buy the wick setting tool which is fast.

Hi Erica, have you thought about reusing the wick trimmings by buying the metal tabs and crimping the trimmings in place?
Yes, we’ve done that before! :)
You GO Chris!! As an S - Corp business, you can add him to payroll. I think you can get more tax credits, too. I might be wrong.
I had to take a break with starting business. It became overwhelming. But I'm back starting from where I left off. Testing... is insane lol!!
Welcome back! It can be a long process, but it’s well worth it!! ☺️
I was so nervous watching you do that over carpet, oh my goodness

Do you let them cure for a certain amount of time before shipping? I know soy can be anywhere between 4 days and 2 weeks?
Hi there! Sorry if this is a FAQ, but where did you get those giant vats for heating your wax?👀
Great video, I’m new here but just curious why 2 wicks for the 8oz tins? Can you please explain thank you
"We are not sleeping outside" hahaha. That one had me laughing hard. 🤣
😂
hi Erica! question about the wicks, you said you use CDN2 Wicks, Is that a proprietary designation? or is that a common name such as Matte Black Jars? in general, Are wicks name trademarked? Thank you for your time.
Hi Erica. Great video!! My question is does all your candles use the same wick. Your large jars and tins?? Thank you
Hi! Yes I use the same wick in them and then adjust my wax formula based around the container or fragrance oil :)
Hi, how much you can sell 8 onz candle?
Wat kind of wax melters do you have?
Digiboils!
You do a burn test before you sold your candles? Or just made one and went with it?
Yes, always a burn test on all candles before selling!

Hi! From amazon ☺️

Hi, I have a question about labels. What type of labels do you use, so it does not get damage with the heat?
I use online labels weatherproof ones
Does your entire floor you live on in your building have the fragrances in the air? 😊
Hey Erica.. what wax melters are you guys using in this video? Thanks!
Digiboils :)
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thanks so much 😀
Will you post the link for the wick tool used
Yes it’s in the pinned comment! ❤️
But here is the Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/carpelink
The tool he used to wick the jar is not showing
@@lasha3568 it was a custom item from that Etsy shop. He has this wick setter available that can be used for any jar: www.etsy.com/listing/1014815023/wick-setter-3d-printed-5-inches
Thank you
what do we do about 2x wicks
what do you mean?
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo why 2 wick is it for aesthetics or a better burn not sure of the reason for 2 the glass does not look too wide
How long did this take him real time?
There was an hour of footage, but it probably took him a few hours from start to finish with prepping and pouring! Honestly waiting for the melting pots to heat up takes the longest time out of anything! Once everything is ready he pours really quickly!
I’m always like you’re done already? 😅
You don't have to answer, but is Chris a full-time candlemaker now, too??
Yes he has pretty much taken over the candle making, inventory management and shipping part of the business! ❤️❤️
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo I am sure that is such a huge help! I like that you all make a great team!
Are you focusing more on the social media side now that he is making the candles?
Yes! Social media, email marketing, wholesale/private label expansion, plus I also have my UA-cam channel and my ericamariemorris.com website…. So there’s always something to do 😄❤️
Hi there.... where do you buy most of your jars, especially the black ones if you don't mind me asking?
@@Kemelia101 cal candle supply!
Can you please make a video on social media marketing
Is he making the candles because of the pregnancy?
Dit is niet leuk om naar te kijken . Dat snelle gedoe .
