Wholesale orders + working with a collective has really helped me through this slow summer season. In this video, I'm working on my Fall inventory and getting ready for Winter!

Thank you! Ugh I got impatient and bought one from Michael’s and then the other one came in the mail the same day 😂 so now I have ANOTHER backup!

Ok so I’m not the only one who has broken those circle cutters. In concept they are brilliant, but each one I’ve tried has eventually been overwhelmed having to cut through sticky paper. I think the sticky builds up on the metal edges or something. I hope the new one lasts a good amount of time! I’ve gone through 2 brands and idk how many

Enjoy es the video as usually. Do you mind sharing where I can get the tealight containers

@laciej 11 ай бұрын

I get them from CandleScience, but you can get them from anywhere, really. Including Amazon I think. Just a quick Google search and you’ll see a bunch of different places! ☺️

What Avery label were you using for the ceramic jars?

Congrats on the new job!!! And yes you always have to negotiate if you aren’t being offered what you are worth. Never stop standing up for yourself!!😊 Question… you said your order came from Instagram AKA Facebook. So Im confused. Do you have a separate store online on facebook or instagram? That isnt an etsy shop? I have an Etsy sticker shop and am trying to get more sales and have been wondering about facebook. Not sure if you could give more information on this? Or maybe a quick video or part in one in the future? Love your channel and how informative you are…

She has mentioned in another video that she gets orders on Instagram from time to time. She also have mentioned she has a Milky Candles page on Instagram, TikTok, and then her website. I think she said instagram aka Facebook is because they are both owned by the same person.

@laciej 11 ай бұрын

@@TiffanyChantee yup! You’re right. I have a Shopify website, I use Etsy, and I’ve set up my Instagram (owned by Facebook which is also known as Meta) shop for people to buy directly from Instagram. However, in order to sell on Instagram, you must set up your inventory through Facebook. It was super confusing for me at first which is why it always takes me a long time to update my Instagram inventory 😂

Loving the content 🥰 I plan to purchase soon can’t wait to try. Do you record everything on your phone? How do you keep your storage space from filling? Would also love a video of you taking product photos 🫶🏽

@laciej 11 ай бұрын

Thank you! As of right now, yes I do record everything on my phone. I had a camera and then broke it (it fell off my tripod yikes). Was using my fiancés camera but it shuts off randomly. Sooo… iphone haha.

@laciej 11 ай бұрын

And I finally purchased more storage (VERY reluctantly) since it’s a business write off 🤷🏽‍♀️ but I basically upload the storage to my iMovie, edit, and then immediately delete it from my phone. Bc I don’t have time to be fussing with storage when I’m in a hurry haha

@JazmyneK 11 ай бұрын

@@laciej thank you!! I’ve struggled with figuring out how to handle the storage capacity in content creation.

@laciej 11 ай бұрын

@@JazmyneK sometimes I schedule time to sit down and (1) clear my cashe (2) delete old text threads with large file sizes sent and (2) manage my overall storage through my settings because so many docs get downloaded and I didn’t even know! So that’s something to look into, too.
