As a fellow candle and soap maker, your videos make my day.
Thanks so much watching! have a great rest of your day!
Thank you for sharing all those box sizes. For a visual person like me, that's the best!!! I will definitely use your links to buy them.
You are so welcome! I'm happy to hear it helped! It takes a lot of trial and error to find the right size!
Thank you for this extremely helpful video!!!!! I'm new to the candle world so I needed all of this insight! Thank you! :)
Glad it was helpful!
I love your branding! Everything looks so lovely!
Thank you so much!
❤❤❤ for schitts creek distraction lol
Yes!!!!!!!
this helped sooo much! i use the evermore jars from 16/17, which is much larger than the VERY common 9oz jars, so i've been struggling to find suggestions on what size boxes to use. it seems the aura vessels and evermore are very similar (aura is a little smaller), so this narrows it down !! wohooOO
I’m so glad that helps you!!! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video! Thanks
What else goes in the box besides the candle? Bubble wrap, peanuts? How do you secure the candle inside the box? 😊
Thats it! Make that baby snug as a bug!
Hello! Lovely!!! What size stamp do you use for your kraft bags? Thank yiu
The biggest dazzle has. Take what you need stamped and fill up about 3/4 of the space
Loved this video🙂
Thank you!!
I do the same thing with my packing materials.
So you don’t package your candles in a fancy branded box first? Just right in the shipping box, right?
Hellll no. Ain't nobody got time for that! All shipping box, all day!
Are you willing to share the link where you bought your larger rubber stamps? I have a small one but would love a larger one for my boxes.
Yes! It’s a custom one from Zazzle!
It's the custom 4"*5" stamp! I love it! Oh and they always have coupons if you search "zazzle coupons"!
@@UpsideGoodsCo Awesome! Thank you! I have a Zazzle account so that is perfect! :)
@@UpsideGoodsCo Thank you for sharing! I was wondering the same thing :)
What products do you ship with in summer?
The same year round, I just only ship on certain days.
With all of the various sizes of boxes what kind of quantities did you start out with for your launch? Also, how did that $40 tape dispenser hold up...do you still like it?
I think I had about 25 of each. I bought them as bundles, so that sounds about right. Yes, I do really like the tape dispenser, it's kind of a mess with the water, but it adheres really well!
I want to order custom boxes for my WW aura vessel and then pack that into one of those shipping boxes. What size would you recommend?
Great question. Honestly, I think you can make it work in a 4" cubed box, but what I usually do is cut samples out of shipping boxes to see what works. For this it sounds like you'd need a gift box which is a bit thinner so that should work!
Does the 5x5x5 boxes not work for the aura? i was thinking of using that one..
Nope, they are too small for the peanuts and things I package my candles with.
@@UpsideGoodsCo Ah, okay. Thank you!
Did you get your stamp from a local big box office supply company? Also based on the size I'm wondering if its old school with an ink pad or the kind that retracts.
Ooops...saw your response below.
@@lynnekrueger9056 Yep! Zazzle!
You have a lot of fragrances... do you have favorites?
Yes, I love Palo Santo + sage from WW and is a consistent seller for me. A lot of the fragrances that I have are from when I first started and had. I sense of direction. Or they are duplicates that I pour frequently and don’t want to wait on shipping!
Do you buy your vessels wholesale ?
I do not. I do buy large quantities for me given where I'm at right now but no, I don't purchase wholesale.
Awesome video! Thanks!
Of course, thanks for watching!
