Hey guys! My team and I have decided to sale homemade candles as a fundraiser for this years Relay.

I was wondering if anyone has done homemade candle sales before and if so what scents sold the best for you. Thanks a lot for the help.

This may be too late, but

This may be too late, but thought I would mention it anyway.  My team did a candle fundraiser also.  We have a store in our community that helps with fundraisers.  They sell them to us for $6, and we sell them for $10.  It works well.  She does unique scents, and will create a scent for specific causes.  For instance, she created a scent that she called "cure" for our fundraiser, and colored it purple.  She also has a "pink ribbon" scent.  She also does scents for the universities in our region.  She has "Bulldogs", which is a red candle, a "Vols" candle that is orange, and so on.  No logos included, of course.  She also does them for our local high schools.  We found that people really enjoy buying the "scent" for their school!

candles

We sold candles that we bought from a company, but making them would be cool. Are you making them yourself?  If so, what does it entail?  What are the costs?

Thanks and good luck!

I worked with a girl who did

I worked with a girl who did the candle idea and I recal her most popular scent at work being baby powder.
