I have only just seen the thread and have read it all.
Sounds like you did a good job GoodFairy - you can never please all of the people all of the time. Its also good to get feedback good and bad so you can improve.
I've bookmarked your site for the new year.
Those wax melts look fantasticSometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0 -
Mine arrived Friday, thanks they are great, I will certainly order again have cinamon melts on the go as I type, lovely warm cuddly and Christmassy aroma.
I will be back next year to persuade Sarah to make some amaretto melts!!!0 -
Sarah,
you have done fantastically well to achieve what you did - especially when suddenly overwhelmed with unexpected orders. You (and the rest of your helpers/elves) should now sit & put your feet up!
I chopped my Xmas Cake melts in half to burn & the tealight candle gave out long before the smell did!! They smell gorgeous too, not too heavy or sickly, but all cosy :-)

I only found this thread today but the candles and melts look fabulous, have bookmarked it for future birthday and xmas prezzie purchases. :-) Great to see something made by hand when so many people are buying plastic tat (bulk manufactured in China for pennies and sold here for pounds) as Xmas presents.
Sarah, if you go on uk business forums ( http://www.ukbusinessforums.co.uk/forums/ ) you will get loads of good business advice, support and help (and probably quite a few orders too) quite a friendly bunch on there and eager to help (just like here).
Have a good Xmas Goodfairy :-) :A"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the

goodfairy- i have just seen this thread and loved your candles- they are so clever. looking forward to seeing all the other ingenious ideas you come up with.
i think you seem to have coped very well with the orders and i'm sure you will learn from this sales period and be better equiped for future rushes and will also take on board the feedback you have received to make your fledgling business even better. good luck:T:love: married to the man of my dreams! 9-08-090 -
As you know, Sarah, my order was found in a mislaid sack at the sorting office along with 14 other packages for other people. I couldn't wait to open and I wasn't disappointed! The smell was amazing and was teasing me the whole time I was trying to open the package - no problems with my packaging! The wax melts are amazing and everyone who has seen them has commented and has asked for your website details. I will definitely be ordering again in the New Year - and please please I hope the iced gems are a success - I LOVE them!
Have a very Happy Christmas!!0 -
I'll definitely be ordering in the new year. The candles look lovely and the majority of posters are really happy with them. The way you're dealing with the few problems there are assures me that your customer service is fab so i'll be ordering with confidence that if there is a problem you'll put it right. Well done you xxJanuary budget

Merry Christmas GoodFairy! What candles are you burning tonight?:heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.0

Merry Christmas Darlings!
I am burning my own concoction of left-over wax
Whenever I finish a candle and have some wax leftover, I pour it into a big pillar mould. Sometimes it's cinnamon, then pineapple, then vanilla, it's ugly as sin though lol
