Hi y’all—this video is me getting ready for a 10-day vendor event at the Gwinnett Fairgrounds, and I’m literally working in real time in my home studio (aka my “junky junky junky” candle station). I didn’t have time to film and edit a full vlog, so I went live and brought you with me while I label jars, let my wax heat up, and talk through what it really looks like to prep inventory when you’ve got a big market coming up. If you’re in candle season right now, you already know it gets busy fast, so this is very much a work-with-me, behind-the-scenes kind of day. I also share what I’m selling and what’s been moving the most—my 100% soy, non-toxic candles with crackling wood wicks. Coastal Serenity is my number one seller (sea salt, eucalyptus, sandalwood vibes), and I’m telling y’all right now… Fiery Affection is coming for the top spot because it sold out at my last vendor event (I even had to sell the tester). I go over my full scent lineup, talk about options that work well for men, and share tips like why I still hand-label everything and print my own stickers to keep costs down. And if you want to shop, I’ve got a YouTube code (YOUTUBESJ15) for 15% off.
