Thank you so much, this is such a kind comment. Made me smile ☺️ x

Lovely to see you up and about and so quickly after your surgery. It sounded like a bit of a nightmare, but glad it was successful. Your resilience and strength really shines through, no wonder you have such a thriving business. Love the Christmas collection they really are lovely. Look forward to the market vlogs. Im looking to do a few next year so that will be really helpful 😊😊😊

Vicki, this actually makes me emotional. Thank you so much for this lovely comment. I will read back on this when i next have a mental breakdown and feel like everything is wrong 😂 So glad you love the videos ❤️❤️❤️

[@daisyanna22]

Always look forward to your videos. ❤ Kudos to you for soldiering on through the busy candle season. But hope you got the downtime you needed to recover as well. Good luck with all the Christmas launches. 😊

[@WILDRACECO]

Thank you Daisy for the support always❤️ Hopefully onwards and upwards from here and can tackle the candle season strong 💪

Hi Jordan glad to see you are doing well 😊i'm really looking forward to your next 2 planned videos lol i find myself now waiting for Wednesdays & Sundays lol love hearing what you have to say thank you for all the work you put into the videos take care until next time 😁x

[@WILDRACECO]

This makes me SO happy, really put a smile on my face 🥰☺️ So glad I can bring some entertainment, always hoped to create a cosy video to look forward to. Thank you so much for your lovely words xx

It's great to see you smile and thrive after your surgery! I've learned a lot just from watching your videos and inspires me to achieve my goals

[@WILDRACECO]

@@EtcTwilight Aw thank you so much. I am so so happy that you feel inspired. Means so much to me. I was the same! I remember trying to get the courage to buy my first tray of jars which was like £45 and then 3 years later buying 10 trays every week or so. It’s really crazy how desensitised you get to it. I just totted up Octobers outgoings so far and it’s nearly at 6k. Madness to think it’s the same me as 3 years ago xx

[@EtcTwilight]

@@WILDRACECO yep I started a month ago wrapping my candles in a gold fabric with a hot glue gun and now I have actual packaging 😂

[@MsFresh619]

Glad to see you recovering well. Don't over do it. I've just got into candle making as a hobby. Looking forward to getting my second candle from you the last one I gave to my neice.

[@WILDRACECO]

Ahh thank you so much, which candle do you have your eye on? 🥰🥰 Hobby making is so fun, you get all the good parts without the stress of all the regulations x

[@MsFresh619]

Cranberry and Fig 🥰 seems perfect I love anything Cranberry. Hobby making will keep me busy since garden season is over 👩🏾‍🌾

[@WILDRACECO]

@ Ahh yes it’s a sweet cranberry scent with just a hint of fig and winter berry so sounds perfect for you ❤️✨

[@MsFresh619]

Sounds fantastic 😊❤

[@elliestaley-cinti5900]

Sorry it's been such a tough few weeks 😔 hope it's all up from here on! Really looking forward to the market video as I'm super nervous ahead of my first market end of Nov x

[@WILDRACECO]

Thank you Ellie 🥰 oooo amazing, will definitely get that filmed! Any particular stuff you’d like to see? X

[@elliestaley-cinti5900]

@@WILDRACECOThank you Jordan 😊 I would say maybe key things to bring with you to markets, how much stock you tend to bring (or how to estimate if possible?), table set up tips and some advice on interacting with potential customers (something I'm nervous about being quite introverted!) x

[@WILDRACECO]

@@elliestaley-cinti5900 will try and cover all of that, thank you, that’s actually really helpful 🥰✨ xx

[@AmySnedker]

I had no idea that endometriosis could affect nearby organs too 😮 So pleased to see that you’re recovering well now! I’m in the testing phase still. I’ve spent months trying to nail a certain fragrance yet I made just 3 candles of another scent last week and I think I’m happy to pass that one. So funny how it goes! I’m going to have to move on and revisit the other fragrance at a later date before I drive myself insane lols x

[@WILDRACECO]

It’s crazy isn’t it! Scary how far it can wiggle around and affect inside. Thank you so much 🥰 Keep going! It’s so weird how some fragrances just never seem to work. Sometimes it can be because of the wax so maybe worth looking at if you really want that original fragrance xx

[@syreeta2602]

Hi, so glad your feeling better after your surgery. I was just wondering how CPL labels work when selling on Amazon. Would you have to use one specific to each scent or can you just use a candle safety label ? Good luck with your Christmas market. I love the buzz of this time of year, tiring but rewarding my first one was today.

[@WILDRACECO]

I love the buzz of this time of year 🥰 Thank you so much! CLP has to be individual to the scent as includes allergy information about each oil used. So all the same regulations no matter what platform they are sold on - for the UK 🇬🇧 xx
