Candles for the Recital

I felt bad for posting without any pictures.  Reading, I know, but I love it!  My point, here are some pictures of many of the candles going to the show.  Plus, I posted it on Facebook and I never promote myself!  That's too much, too much pressure! 

Now, continue to make the candles.  Been thinking about stepping out and introducing other products.  Will have to wait and see.

With the candles, they have packaging, there's always room for improvement.

labels for jars
100 brochures

Continue to do right by the business and have fun while I do it.  Have at minimum 50 candles at all times.  Never know when someone will need some. 

Moving Toward Good Things

Started building www.bettysonly.com, my website for Betty's Only A Candle Company.  Things have been moving forward.  Selling candles for random occasions is always good.  The website isn't completed, but is up and running.  No, I haven't had a purchase via Betty's Only, but am looking forward to the first one.

I paid $85.00 to participate in two events here in the city, and messed one.  I had a meeting and didn't prepare so I didn't do it.  I didn't give myself an opportunity to get upset with myself, because ultimately, it was my fault.  It's better to prepare than not.

Friday, May 17, Passion Works Dance Academy will host there dance recital and at that event I will be selling Betty's Only candles.  So nervous, or embarrassed about this.  A friend of mine is going to sit with me while I participate in this event.

There are a few things that I need to purchase before Friday's show.

Table clothes to display Betty's Only candles on the table.  Table without coverage will look so bland.
Tape to hold the banner
gift bags

I believe that I have 50 plus candles.  Tonight, I will sort out the total number per type of candle and the amount that I can make off of them.  That will be my second time selling them at one of her events and period in a setting as such.  Will get there early to set up and wait for the crowd.  Going to stay because at the end, she wants to introduce me to the audience.  Very, very shy I am, but looking forward to this event!
