Starla's Candle Making Best Picks

My pick of the best places on the web to go to for candle, crafts, instructions and some fine "mom and pop" wholesale shops. In no way do I receive any money for the links, nor am I advertising for others. It is strictly what I like.

Candle making suplies

For your website, some searchers use the wrong spelling when searching. Like the words, "candle making suplies" Last month 76 people used these words when searching. My site was listed at #3 in the listings because I have that misspelled word on my site.

Note, I don't recommend you have misspelled words all over your site, but if you use http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/ to find what words were searched last month, it won't hurt to add the more popular one.

Yes, I know Google has the "did you mean ________" thingy at the number one spot. I just don't care and some people overlook it, scroll down and find me.

Tara's Scentsational Gifts

Tara has a nice site.

Located in Ohio, Tara lives with two bouncing lab mixes and her adoring fiancee. She has been creating soy melts and dipping bears for over four years. Tara enjoys displaying her items at local craft shows for thankful customers. Two local craft shops offer her craft art to area visitors as well. The amount of attention and care she puts into each order only goes to show her devotion to her handicraft. She gives her customers the same amount of care and attention.

Please take the time to visit her shop.

Create Your Own Air Fresheners

Welcome new crafter!

Susie Bell! I'm thrilled to say we have added a fierce new craft maker to our site.

For those of you already in the know, most of this will be old hat. For those of you new to our blog, Susie handmakes paper to create car air freshener blanks. You add your own fragrances and string/ribbons to these blanks and you have your own personalized line of car air fresheners.

This week she has added a new custom Smiley Face air freshener blank.


We grew up with this happy little guy and are please that he has come back. You can paint his eyes and mouth black or just leave him the way you see him.

Yes, we think it is a "he" because he had no hair. Just like Mr. and Ms. Pac-man, you can tell the difference.

Check out her other custom made blanks on our website.
