First Farmers Market as a Candle Vendor | Preparing and actual footage from the night

Welcome! I share tips and insider secrets as a professional candle maker and biochemistry major, review candle and soap supplies, and just have fun.

It appears that VistaPrint no longer sells the rope or clear adhesive hooks for their banners. If anyone else can find them on their website, please let me know.

[@titiverdeasmr5314]

I LOVE all your labels. Great job!

[@Sherrie_Martin]

I would love to see more of you at the markets…

[@roccdecorfragrances]

What a lovely display. I love your wax melt stand. I ordered a banner from Canva, it was super cheap for the size, but now I have rebranded.

[@steweythecatdog]

Everything looks amazing. Your labels are so gorgeous....I hope you sell everything you brought with you and take orders for more. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤

[@earthglow]

thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@teannahairston5729]

Definitely would love to see more, especially since you've made changes. So exciting for your first one.

[@earthglow]

More to come!

[@LolaBee144]

Your set up is amazing! It looks inviting and cheerful.

[@earthglow]

thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@medikaorganics]

Bungy cords are perfect for the sign. Local hardware will sell them. They're like a stretchy rope with hooks on each end. Your labels and everything are absolutely stunning ❤

[@earthglow]

Good to know!

[@katebrady8042]

thanks for the video nice to see your setup. would be interested to hear about the markets and how they went for you!

[@tipp_montgomery]

OMG!!! I love that you did this video!! I struggle with knowing what to take and how much!

[@earthglow]

I’m so glad this was helpful!

[@gracierosemiller4411]

I love how you focused on your own table rather than showing everyone else's love the displays totally rocked.

[@earthglow]

I’m so glad you enjoyed!💛

[@maryobrienbarcoe2639]

Bless you, all that hard work and not to mention your videos. Videos that I just LOVE LOVE LOVE to look at. I hope you did well. You are a tonic. 🥰💙 Never stop what you do best. 😘

[@earthglow]

Thank you so much!

[@toddlasvegas]

Absolutely amazing! What an incredible setup you have and your level of organization is off the chart! I am in the setup stages of starting my candle business and I cannot thank you enough for your videos and all of the education you are providing. Your product line looks amazing and absolutely love the esthetic of your entire line. The branding is spot on and carries from one product to another. The product labels are absolutely beautiful as well. I wish you continued success and look forward to watching your business and KZbin channel grow!

[@earthglow]

I'm so glad you enjoyed this video!! You've got this. I'm sure your business is going to be amazing!

[@AshlandThomas]

[@medikaorganics]

Loved watching that thankyou ❤

[@earthglow]

I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@OliviaDaughter]

Love your set up❤

[@earthglow]

Thank you! 😊

[@GlimEssentials]

How’d things go Allen? As soon as you post the video I’ll be tuning in ❤

[@earthglow]

I’m not sure that I’ll be posting a dollars video as there are so many variables and I don’t know that this would really be useful to anyone but for me it went well.

[@libbyrumary4939]

Hmmm that’s lame. You know how much money you made. Otherwise, why would you post these videos in the first place if nobody knows if the effort is worth the reward just saying.

[@titiverdeasmr5314]

Hi hun can you tell me where did you get the tall floor display? I’ve been looking for one for a while but they’re usually expensive and not appealing. I like the one you have.

[@earthglow]

I purchased this at my local Home Goods.

[@rossrichert2022]

Missed u

[@earthglow]

I’m still posting videos though!!😅
