darindab Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 can anyone tell me what you think of their FO's thinking of getting some from them wanted others opinion of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane42 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 They were the first company we ordered from. We were happy with their scents until we tried a couple other companies. We have since found that there are certain scents that we prefer from Candles and Supplies (honeydew, hot apple pie are a couple), so we decided to still purchase a few from them. We are fairly new (testing for a year), and we have only tried Peaks, Just Scents and Candles and Supplies. Due to shipping costs, we really want to try to narrow the field to two FO suppliers BUT it will really be difficult to do that. There are so many we haven't even tried yet! So, for now, if we want to get a couple of FO's, we throw a case of wax in to justify it! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Since I am close to C&S I get my wax, containers, dye and wicks from them. I do have a few of their scents, but find other suppliers better. A majority of my FOs comes from Peaks and Day Star, with about 3-4 from C&S. They do have a $10 minimum on shipping, so if you are in a pinch for wicks...the shipping is more than the wicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I love their Peonies and Peaches. That might be the only FO from them that I will order, but I really want to try their tart/candle warmers. Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaye Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 They were one of my first companies that I ordered from too. But, I would recommend others such as NG, KY, Peak, etc. before I used them again. I thought their customer service was extremely rude. There are much better oils on the market IMO.

Candybee Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I buy soap and wax supplies from them only cause it saves me shipping costs since live close enough to drive in and pick them up. I can't say that their FOs really wow me-- at least not in candles. I do use their FOs in my goat's milk soaps and children's soaps and they do well in those. But for my candles I use a better grade of FO from other suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candlebuddy Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Their fo's are hit or miss; minimum $10 shipping charge; and their customer service needs improvement. I don't buy from them anymore, I like to deal with suppliers who appreciate my business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eugenia Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I have a few excellent FO's from them but I've been able to go there and sniff. There were a few that bowled me over, like Cotton Blossom and Lavender Tea. Most were nothing spectacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
