Congratulations Erika! I'm just hearing and wanted to express my excitement for you and Chris! I'm an old grandma now, which is awesome, but you never forget the first moment you are expecting your first baby! How exciting! 😊😊❤❤😊😊 Now I have to watch the video again, because I didn't hear anything after you were expecting, lol!
Thank you so much, your content is very helpful. I am in the very, very beginning stages getting started/educated on everything. It is a little overwhelming. Not even close to being ready to open a store on Shopify, but I do want to quickly secure my domain. Should I do that through Google and then transfer it over to Shopify when ready or is there a way to secure it through Shopify before I’m ready to begin my subscription with them?
Great video, lots of useful info, I was wondering if you could share where do you get your vessels from, including the lids if you use them. Thank you.
Hi Erika! Are you still using tw30 blended with your soy 10 and beeswax? Just curious, I tried adding tw30 in and I cannot get a proper burn with my wicks.
I've enjoyed your videos, I'm barely starting and you have been extremely helpful. Thank you, so far I made 2 6oz candles in the 8 oz tins and I'm using soy wax with a couple amazing fragrances from 16/17 which is crazy to start with their fragrance lol it's amazing but not something to just experiment with lol and I'm bummed that the wicks were some Erix x or I don't even remember the name but it was in a kit and using only 1 I'm not getting a great melt pool or HT, I need to double wick and find the right size. Thank you for sharing so much
I've gotten almost all my information from Erica (Memory Box Candle Co), Wade (Black Tie Barn), and Jeff Standley (Standley Handcrafted). I think I would have struggled so much without their help. Erica did a 2 part Q&A with Wade, too. Such a great little community.
Thank you for your video❤️ I am sure your fragrance oils are going fast 😊 buuut what would you do with fragrance oils which are nearly expired or for example opened a bottle few moths ago and don’t think I will use it soon 🫠 is it better to keep it safe, dark, cool place and hope I will need it soon or use it straight away. Would it go bad faster in the soy wax products 🧐does it make any sense? 😂 thank you ❤
So I would keep fragrances in a dark room temp place away from sunlight for up to a year, if you don’t think you will use it by then it will last longer in a finished candle if you don’t mind using it up and keeping the products stocked!

Good information
Thank you so much, your content is very helpful. I am in the very, very beginning stages getting started/educated on everything. It is a little overwhelming.

Totally get that! I secured mine through godaddy and then I was able to connect it to Shopify once I was ready :)
Hey Erica, I was wondering where you get your jars from?
Calcandlesupply :)
What causes small waves on my candle tops
Great video, lots of useful info, I was wondering if you could share where do you get your vessels from, including the lids if you use them. Thank you.
Oh I forgot to add those to the pinned comment! I get them from cal candle supply! (Lids are included in the jars I get!)
I'm the beginning so much problems for bay everyone ,thank you so much 😊😊😊😊Dora
Hey Erica do you change your respirator filter everyday?
No not at all! I have only changed it once
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thank you because those filters are pricey.
Hi Erika! Are you still using tw30 blended with your soy 10 and beeswax? Just curious, I tried adding tw30 in and I cannot get a proper burn with my wicks.
No, I stopped doing that a while ago, I just add beeswax to my soy 10!

Keep experimenting! Candle making is definitely a journey :)

@@arfreeman11 thank you
Wow did you upgrade your camera 😲
You look so HD😮❤❤❤
If so I want the info 😊 please 🥺🙏🏾😊❤️❤️
I haven’t actually! Still the same one :) it could be the lighting!
For reference I use a canon m50 with a 22mm lens :)
