Maybe the site is still under construction because the FAQ section is also empty.



Yup, definately a work in progress, cuz I clicked on both Candle Gift Sets and Bath & Body Gift sets (was gonna steer DH to something I'd appreciate for Mothers' day) and both said COMING SOON!

Can't wait!

When I ordered last time, I used the Order Tracking feature. Just an FYI to everyone: It's excellent and accurate! Easy too.

I'm a dunce. I just now noticed Pam's guest book. She never once has asked me to post there even though she knows I'm a huge fan. I just wrote a review and it's waiting to be activated and published. Y'all can guess what I have to say. [smilie=th_drool33456183iw4]

Just a quick question to long-time fans (I'm a new fan)
I see the Soy Shot Melts say "on sale" for $0.99, and reg. price was $1.25. Has this been going on long? I'm hoping it doesn't end soon. I want to order more.

I just noticed Pink Licorice Whip on the new scent list, that sounds really interesting. (I don't like bakery but I LOVE candy!) lol

I am not a bakery person, and I see Amish Quilt (one of my favorite scents is OUT OF STOCK). Good for Pam since it means business is good, but bad for me since I can't order any. Looking over the list, I see some

Misbehavin.... A flirtatious, fruity, sexy fragrance. A tantalizing aroma of sweet juicy candied apples and pomegranate, with a hint of fresh ivy and oakmoss.

and

Cinnamon Lust...One of the Purest and Hottest Cinnamons we have ever smelled.

in my future. Don't you just love those names? I also love the idea of a Wish List - wonder if it means we will be able to put in scents we "wish" she would consider carrying or if it is like a "watch" list on EBAY???

Also, love the idea of a gift registry as well as gift certificates. Could come in handy to email a gift certificate to a friend...

It seems the "search catalog" button doesn't work. It would be nice to search for just a certain scent if you don't know what classification it might be under. But when I put in "Amish" or "Misbehavin", it just takes me to shot melts or the mists. Maybe once she finishes overhauling the website, it will work better along with the other "buttons" we have found.

Also, free shipping is for orders over $50 - not $100 as per some other vendors we know and love.

You're so funny, Laurie! Have I told you how much I enjoy your posts? You're a great addition to the forum, buddy! [smilie=th_smiley_emoticons_hurr

I wonder if some of the products aren't "clickable" because there isn't anything available yet. [smilie=th_idontknow]

So do you gals like the scent description list being divided up by category or not? It's okay, but my preference is alphabetical.

ETA: Hi Proudmama! You won't be disappointed! And welcome, BTW!

Gail


Gail, I just saw what you said, Thanks!![smilie=th_slider_flirt] How lovely to be appreciated!

As for the scent descriptions, I don't mind either way, but alpha is probably more practical. I'd love it if they were strength-rated, but that's what fellow fans on the forum can do!

Oh, and [smilie=th_welcome] Proud Mama. Don't hesitate to brag on your kidlet(s) as well as your wax!

Are soaps on there anywhere? I saw that in the spotlight, that she enjoys making cold-pressed soap. I wonder if it's with goat's milk? I recently discovered goats milk soap locally, and it's to die for. I did notice the Goats Milk and Shea body lotion.

DREAMY
oh, and I see she's a member of Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild! I'd love to attend a conference on that!

Laurie, she's had the .99 tart sale going since sometime in November, I believe. She posted on FB that it'd continue until "??" so hopefully that means a long time. [smilie=th_shewiggle]

Oooo, those scents you mention sound fabulous, Tobe! Shame about the Amish Quilt being OOS though.

Have you noticed that all of her tart and oil warmers are either sold or on sale? Maybe they've been completely overshadowed by her awesome wax, heh heh.

As far as new scents go, I really like the sound of Pink Jelly Beans and Creamy Chai Latte.

How interesting that her tarts are 80% soy. I thought they were 100% soy, even though it does specify 80% on her website. I also am crazy for her 1.5 oz. tart cups!

Of course she does, who wouldn't!
I'm on that list too.
The highly scented and long lasting soufle cups with lids to insure freshness and the individually labeled, made to order tarts are TO DIE FOR!

Oh, and isn't it kind of her to include tips to get the best results from your tarts! (as if they didn't perform well on their own!) I have to agree tho, tea lights can burn them out rapidly. Heating in 2-3 hour increments is definately the way to go. My DD does it like that too. Turns off the melter once the room gets scented.

Greed, lust, obsession unmasked! :ph34r: I'm as helpless as a babe. Not as innocent though, eh? [smilie=th_roll]

Speaking of which, doesn't the baby inspired scent Bed Time Bath sound wonderful? [smilie=th_200912104451] I know. Another shameless try. I'm pathetic. :shock: :lol: And just a wee bit melodramatic.:crysmiley1:

Fun!

I know, we were really on a roll there for awhile, weren't we? !

Well, I was licking my lips in anticipation of your last post (and congratulations on your restraint, btw), that I now find myself wishing I had some all natural and moisturizing lip balm! The mango butter, olive oil and vitamin E are just what I need right about now.
[smilie=th_drool33456183iw4]
See all that drooling? It makes me wish I had silky and moisturized lips without the waxy feel. I want the waxy feel in my hot little hands.

You two are cracking me up! You should both get the goods just for trying so hard!!! [smilie=th_smiley_emoticons_hurr

If either one of you happen to live in Canada-she can still ship to you! She does ship in the US and Canada ya know!!! [smilie=th_Whistle]


I also found it interesting that she has had her shop open for so long(since 2002) and has just recently gotten overwhelmed with orders(in the last six months)-any correllation to the shout outs here? Ya think?

I would be excited to have such a supportive husband of 19 years-that makes a big difference when you have a good support system in your business!

Is it my imagination or does the Facebook status in the bottom left corner keep changing? I swear it just said something about Thanksgiving this afternoon, now it says something completely different. 215 fans on there!

I am so glad she has gift sets available, and I am also wondering how the weather is in Keller, TX right now-if she can get out to start delivering the goodies ordered today.

On a serious note though- Has anyone taken the plunge on ordering the 36 pack? Maybe Stardust-so you can order tons of the mint coffee latte!
It would be great if you really loved 4 of the scents on the list-9 of each scent. Do you have to email her to order it-or is there a drop down for it?

I just may be taking that plunge once I decide which scent is my fav. THAT'S gonna be a tough call. Hmmm. . . . so far Grapefruit Mangosteen has knocked my socks off. I can't wait to try Fairy Garden (if for no other reason, the cuteness of the label), I see it is currently sold out, so it must be very popular. I will just hold onto mine and drool a little longer. I did also notice that a scent called Patchouli Honey was brought back because of so many requests. Now that's what I'm talkin' about. That kind of customer service goes above and beyond. I wish I liked the food scents, because there sure are some interesting-sounding ones. Creme de la creme! Love it! I'm just afraid I'd be craving sweets all day long if I were smelling that. Or Andes Thin Mints, or Fresh Baked Bread - oh I can hardly imagine it. But since I have a hard enough time sticking to a diet, I think I'll stick to some exotic Bamboo Verbena (or Bamboo Sugar Cane for that matter) or maybe Ocean Blue or Tranquil Waters as I am taken back to carefree beach days. And if I let my imagination really run wild, how about some Sex on the Beach. (no, not the kind that would get one arrested, the drink- sillies! get your minds out of the gutter now)

You two are quite entertaining - and I am learning a lot about the LSC site just from reading you posts. Just like good old college Cliff Notes! [smilie=th_laughing]

But now you have my interest up on a couple things, so I am actually going to go look again.
