  • I always get so anxious before an event-- I always think I'll forget something or run out of something and wish I'd prepared more! But it's always a blast and I am so grateful for the company of my fiance, other vendors, and the customers each time.

    The Aura vessels are absolutely gorgeous. You are the first person I have ever seen wick this vessel with one wick. I love it..

      Thank you! 2 wicks looks nice, I just don’t want to pay double for the same job. CD 8 works great!

    Loved seeing your setup and how well you did. So inspiring! I have a vendor event in November so I'm binge watching your videos to help me get prepared.

    Lacie, thanks for sharing how you set up for a pop-up. I got some really good ideas😊. I'm new to the business and looking forward to getting my product out there. It was encouraging to hear the amount of money you made. Keep up the good work! It will pay off!!!!!

    I love the new Vessels! they are so pretty.. I am enjoying watching your Market Video while prepping for our big Halloween Market this weekend. Funny I noticed you have the same Collapsable white shelf that I have for markets LOL. It's one of my favorite purchases for markets so far. I pressed designs on 30 shirts and 30 tote bags last night and now on to putting 200 different stickers on new pegs to hang up. And last but not least, I need to hang christmas ornaments on spinner racks and secure them for travel and oh yeah I need to get my bookmarks onto new pegs... It seems like there is more prep time involved than actual time at the events LOL!! Each time we set up, we tweak things to make things more streamlined but It's alot of work!! Although I am doing all of this while burning my "Milky Candle "Golden Leaves*Cedar" candle which I am still loving! Your set up was beautiful. Loved all of it. Congrats on a great event.. Always nice to have a successful day.

      Thank you for your support! Luckily it was only a 1-day thing so I’m like… uhh was it allergies? Cause I’ve never experienced allergies like that 😅

    You did great! I’ve noticed at my own markets that I’m horrible at predicting top sellers because each market is so different!

    • @laciej
      @laciej  9 місяців тому

      So different!! I can’t believe we didn’t sell Black Moss + Cedar and I can’t believe we sold out of Apple Orchard?? Not on my bingo card.

    great video! could I ask where you bought the round circle candle dust cover cutter from? ;-)

    Have you ever thought of blending waxes? Like blending soy with palm wax; I did that for a while and it helped a lot when it was hot outside.

    • @laciej
      @laciej  9 місяців тому

      I haven’t thought about it, but I also have a hard time believing no wax will melt or soften in 95 degree direct sunlight. But I wonder if it’ll work 🤔

    I sell my Aura for $36 also but I love the idea 2 for $65 gonna try that at my next market

    • @laciej
      @laciej  9 місяців тому +1

      It was a big hit! We got a lot of “oh okay then I’m def gonna do that” giggles.

    Hi, I just started follow-up your channel. I love your work. For a pop-up, how big is the inventory? How many candles minimum do you have to take to the market. thank you.

    • @laciej
      @laciej  9 місяців тому

      Hi! It depends on the expected traffic, honestly. And the advertising they’ve done ahead of time. Something like this is 45 candles (5 of each scent).
