An idea for re-using vessels… use a vessel as a mold and make refills that you can drop into the vessel!

This! Much more small-business friendly. Also if you think of sustainability - the whole transportation footprint completely outweighs the thought.

I have a small business in Hungary. That’s my idea too! Refill candles is easier and less footprint ❤

To be honest, I’d rather you talking, then the music over it because it’s more entertaining

Thanks for the feedback🤗

Always ♥your videos, but really loved you being all chatty today! Love the bow clip and the bear candles. (OMG did anyone else gasp out loud when you dropped that poor guy? Just me?) LOL Also love the new ivory and iridescent vessels. I think you should try out both! The ivory would be perfect for a bridal candle. Perhaps you could release a bridal line with your signature scent, in honor of you getting married this year. The small vessel would go well as 'favors' and since you print your own labels, you could offer to customize with the bride and groom's name, date etc? Looking forward to the rest of this series! ♥

Love the bows. I think that if you glue them in one part, it would help secure the bow more.

Yesss that ivory is so pretty! I do also love the black, it's really unique 🥰

I think you should use the ivory and black but if they have like a brown colour I think that could look really good and use it instead of black.

The bear bag is the cutest thing!

Hi! Cold Process Soap maker here. I think you should make some soaps for your friends. You could do a cold process, a hot process, or melt and pour soap. I make candles for my friends & family for gifts. Good luck! ❤💛💜

Launching is SO HARD! I launched my spring collection yesterday and thought I was going to go nuts. SO many issues with website. January was so stressful!

Everything is so cute!! ❤🧸

love the candle vessel take-back idea

I like the take-back idea.

The ivory look so much nicer and cleaner than the cream.

Who were those other youtubers you referred to I love watching or listening to craft vlogs while i craft.

I recently ordered the iridescent ivory and peach aura vessels & I absolutely love them❣️

Do the ivory vessels… And the iridescent vessels should be for the scents you wanted to do based on your culture. Love your videos ❤❤❤

So I bought one of your toiletry bags a couple months ago and I have been using the heck out of it for anytime I go out of town. I’m always impressed with how much fits in it and also how well it packs since it is wider than it is tall. I think a great video on social media what be using your products and showing the benefits! You could do a video with how much you can fit in the bag and then also packing it in a suit case or duffel bag. I loooooove your stuff!! Also I initially started following you from your pop up series and I loooooove watching your market videos with tips and tricks too:)

I am working on things now, so I plan to be completed by July for sure. I just wanna make sure everything is perfect. Love the idea of an nostalgic collection. Great job.

Follow your gut, ivory looks great! The labels will pop so much more on a brighter base! ✨

Matte ivory is looks pretty slick

I LOVE the pink candle cases! Bring them back lol 😂 💖💖💖💖💖 love the videos always can’t wait to watch your newest video🫶🏼

A citrus bergamot or citrus cedar wood would be a lovely warm, energizing scent!

I think painting the bears would be good. Also, have you thought about a waffle/pancake/syrup candle for your nostalgia collection? Like a Saturday morning breakfast vibe. Also I like you talking because it makes multitasking easier (being involved with you while doing my hair or crocheting or washing dishes) instead of struggling to read. But as a fellow introvert 😅😅 when the urge to speak comes, you obey it. When it leaves, that’s cool too.

cool t-shirt!

Girl, I am with you! Always slow to plan that first launch and valentines seems to sneak up on me. Getting better going into my third year of business, but far from perfect haha

Omg I love OurCheeryCorner!! I love watching her videos. Her family is so adorable 🥰 I definitely think u should paint the eyes and nose black.

sooooo cute also I see you in that NTA shirt!!! I love Natalia Trevino Amaro, shes so inspirational :)

Great video! The ivory aura matches the ivory trio gift box nicely, too 😊.. with a ribbon, it would look nice... I love the take back idea..I have been mulling over the same thing since last year, but haven't ironed things out. I also like the circular design better for the cards than the other one.. very chic and simple. I have been thinking about getting the toAuto melter but I am still unsure + it'sout of stock. Does it take a lot of space to store? I have my first grown-up sewing class coming up, and I cannot wait. Your videos inspired me after I took a tote sewing workshop last year. Thank you! 🙏🏽🌺 BTW, the iridescent white aura is also nice and comes in 2.5oz, 8oz & 12oz 😊

I just tried thecraftygeminis’ boxy zipper pouch tutorial. Saves a time of time because you only have to box 4 corners total. Lining and outer are sewn together

Are you selling your creamsicle candles yet? Love the chatty video!!❤

Orange Creamsicle is one of my favorite from candlescience. Smells amazing. 🥴

Hey Monica! ❤ your channel. I wanted to let you know the arm that came with your walking foot is used to evenly sew lines so you can skip marking fabric with chalk. I believe it may be adjustable, but honestly I’m not sure. 😂 Hope this helps.

Thank you!! It’ll definitely come in handy when I’m quilting pouches👍

It is adjustable! You push it through the hole to make your lines as wide/small as you want your spaces to be!

Annnnnnnnd, you are also planning "our" craft trip!!!! BTW waiting for more info. 😊

Yes!!! Big announcements coming soon:)

I have a question! Do you find more success by going to pop ups or being online? Or like did pop ups /markets help you get your online customers? By the way I love love love the new creamy candle vessel.

I think you should create a standard discount. Damage is so subjective to the customer and also will they send it back with the same leverl of care? Probable not. If you make a standard discount then you will never encounter issues with your customers. Also look into what you incur if the vessals are no good. Great idea!

Just in case… you might want to do a little sage cleanse for that thrifted dress 😂 poor thing, it sounds like it’s been through a lot!

Monica, I think you don't do the exchange ,But!!! Start sharing ways for customers to use the candle vessel . Which is still promoting sustainable ❤. I think the exchange is not great for the bottomline, bc the vessel cost is less than the return shipping rate.

So trueeee. I’m definitely going to consider this!!

I highly recommend NOT to do the take program on the makesy iridescent vessels. Even if they look good when they come back to you - when you go to clean them, the inner color can scratch off very easily and well, you'd have to scratch it all of and then use it only as a clear iridescent one. This is not with all the colors, but definitely a lot of them.

I like the exchange idea but u feel like shipping the vessel back isn’t worth it and isn’t very sustainable I like the idea of giving back at pop ups though and you could hand them a discount code when they return and just include a card saying to return it in the bag when you sell them the candle at pop ups. But I also thing advertising sustainable ideas to reuse the vessels is also good for people who orders online.

Switch to the ivory.
