Marilyn,
I am getting my package tomorrow. I will see if I catch the UPS man on my way home and let you know! LOL

I am also wondering if they will revert back to the jar and dozen votives this month.

Too Funny...thats what I said to husband last night when we were wondering what it would be like.

Yolanda, that would be great I am not scheduled to get mine till the 10th!


I will be happy to go back to the votives. I like to burn one to see if I like it and don't want to waste a jar. Plus samples and stuff. I have still been ordering a dozen but by the time I order and get them, half the month is gone. Especially if I wait to smell the jar first. Living so far from Corp can be a bummer sometimes.

Joli, I can't wait to hear what it smells like! And, if we get 1 jar and 1 dozen votives ~ I'll be anxiously awaiting your report!!! http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif

From the description it sounds nice. Here's what the description is:
A romantic blend of jasmine and fresh vanilla , with a base note of musk.</font>

Sounds like a perfume description. Can't wait to find out for myself!!!

I've really liked the two jars, but I'm down to just a few votives... so I won't mind either way!

This month's COTM shipment will be with one jar and twelve votives (and a Bella Bar too, of course!)

Ahhh, you beat me to it, Deb!! http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif I just heard we were getting the dozen votives!! WOOHOO!!!

Okay, isn't it funny how people think differently when they hear a scent name? For some reason, I'm thinking it is going to be a soft, clean smell. Wow ~ won't this be interesting??!! I'm excited!!!

I was wondering also. I was worried about the smell. All I could imagine was a dusty attic.

When I heard Antique Lace and Linen the first thing I thought of was "Chantilly" - a perfume that my dear Great Aunt Gert always wore. I seem to recall the box was pink and had white lace on it. It has been many years since but I still can conjure up the scent on her when she enveloped me with one of her warm hugs...

I think that this version-A romantic blend of jasmine and fresh vanilla , with a base note of musk-sounds positively wonderful too. I can't wait to get my shipment!

I love Jasmine and think that this is going to be yet another one of my MB favorites..... like every month!http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

I like it! A nice light perfume scent. I think that people who liked the Sensual Evenings can enjoy this one!

BTW the Bella bar is Juniper Breeze(thought you would want to know that Vicki LOL).

Jennifer, why not sell them to local customers? I have a few fragrances that aren't my favs at all, however, others love them. ;)

I haven't received it yet, but I'm sure it will be divine!!

JenniferS
12-07-2007, 03:42 PM
Thanks but I just dont have the time to try and sell it right now. Most of my customers have already purchased their candles.
Just thought I may help a fellow distributor who might need it :)

I really like it. It is nice and light and has a very fresh fragrance. My came yesterday and last night I hosted a Lia Sophia party. After everyone left and the rep and I were going through the orders when we finished she said "now lets talk candles, I have been very anxious to buy one from you." I need to insert here that we give gifts to our neighbors every Christmas and one of our new neighbors are good friends with her. I had given my neighbors a basket with a plug in burner and 12 different melts in Christmas scents. She said she fell in love the burner and wanted to know if I had another one. Well I only have four left and she purchased one of those, a bag of SO&amp;CP melts, an SO&amp;CP jar candle and my brand new Antique Linen and Lace jar candle, so really a person doesn't even need to try to sell these candles. Concentrate on just getting you out in to your community, business cards, scent samples, gifts.............they all speak for you even when you are not there. Little by little this business continues to grow for me without a whole lot of effort on my part. I can only imagine what will happen when I really start putting out a little effort!

I don't really care for it either however, I will definitely be putting it out to sell it. I quickly learned that not everyone enjoys the same scents.

Also, if I have one that just really doesn't sell then I normally use it as a gift. My theory on that is that if the person I gift it to doesn't like it - they will probably gift it to someone else. So - that is 2 people that have seen my products instead of one.

Nice going Angie! Don't you love it when that happens?


I sold a candle to a lady who likes the Fresh Laundry scent. I had a feeling that she would like this one as well.

Candlemama

I JUST got mine today. It will definately sell fast. It reminds me of a signature fragrance, that I have smelled in the samples of magazines. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif


Also, I know I have smelled this fragrance on someone. I just can't remember who!

I'll sell this on Thursday at my last open house of the season. :)

Mine didn't have a tracking number and so I called corporate and they told me that the shipment possibly lost.smileys/smiley19.gif. I don't know when I will get the replacement, I'm guessing maybe after Christmas since I live all the way in Oregon.</font>

Mine says it was delivered to Oviedo, Fl, only problem is I live in Texas.

I am wondering if they recycle tracking numbers with UPS, cause it says it was delivered on Sept. 20. Either way can't wait to get it, hopefully it will be here on Monday.

I agree. I'm in BC and still haven't received mine yet and it's the 19th!!! I called last week because my tracking number is showing that is was delivered to California in Nov of 1999!!! http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gifI was told that they recycle the UPS numbers and looked it up and said it had not yet crossed the border. I'm starting to think it has gotten lost. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley19.gif
