      Hello luv I have a question that I hope you do answer. I would really appreciate it. When you say go into whole sales do you mean sell your specific candles by the bulk or do you mean sell candle supplies so that others can create their own candles. I hope the question is clear. Thank you in Advance

  • @torikibbee1452
    @torikibbee1452 3 роки тому +6

    Personally I don’t agree with your dollar tree vassal tip, since in the testing phase your vassal is vital to what wick you use and burn time. Encouraging people to get a vassal that they don’t plan on actually using in the long run isn’t good advice; since they’ll have to double do the testing for a different vassal. But love the video and appreciate your content!💗

    • @Eyeamsandee
      @Eyeamsandee  3 роки тому +2

      The testing gives you the exact same results as my jars. It’s good because you’re not wasting valuable vessels especially with the candle science shortage.
