asheebeans Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Nowhere near those prices!! Holy smokes, I would never get any orders at that rate. Their candles aren't even that good, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 10 oz. shouldered jelly jar from Fillmore...$7. each or 3/$18.10 oz. sq. footed jar from Fillmore...$10. each or 3/$27.I just started testing right after Thanksgiving in the 8 oz. Madison jar from Fillmore. I also am testing a new wax...CBL130 from Candlewic. Got one scent tested in time for my open house before Christmas and the price was $10. each. I had 6 poured and 5 sold. Once I get ALL of my scents tested in the Madison jar...Lord have Mercy...I will probably drop the 10 oz. sq. footed and sell the Madison at $10. each or 3/$27.The next trip to Fillmore I want to pick up a case or 2 of the larger size Madison jars for testing.

KCScentsations Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 8oz Mason Jars: One(1) for $10.00 or Two(2) for $18.00Masons are the jars I always carry in my line. I do carry other jars but only if I have them in stock or for a special holiday but I normally charge $1.00 per oz unless I'm running a sale. With jars I have that are 24oz, I only charge $20. I don't have a candle over this amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showoffs Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I don't make candles yet, but today I went into a gift store and they had 4 oz tins for $11.99 and someone was buying one while I was in there.Shannon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I sell my JJ (5.6 oz of wax) for $7.50. I had been selling them for $7.00, but will up that due to price increases on my end. I will then offer a discount of 3 for $21, saving .50 of each candle.I had been using the big square mason pints, but I decided to not use those right now due to cost issues. I have votives in the testing stages and they are $1.50 each for singles, and I have price breaks at 6 and 1 dozen, they have to order at least 6 of each scent!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lantern Light Mama Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Each of my candles is different and it depends on the price of the glassware it is in. I have a 5oz tumbler that is $7, a 4oz lidded jar that is $9...etc. I take my cost per candle (jar, wax, color, wick, FO, wick sticker, labels, etc)and multiply it by four. If it seems high for where I live, I might do X3 or X3.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
