Retailer FAQ
Q: Our customers don't like fragrant candles and some are allergic, can you accomodate them?
A: Not a problem! We offer our Custom Candles scented or unscented.
Q: Do you stock your candles?
A: No, since we offer hundreds of color, scent and style combinations, we create all of our candles to order. Although this takes a little longer, this allows us to make sure you get the candles you want.
Q: Do you offer colors other than what is shown on your website?
A: Yes, we limit our candle colors on-line so not to overwhelm customers. If you do not see the color you want, just ask!
Q: Can I order any type of candles from you in the same order?
A: Yes, you can mix and match candles, colors and scents as long as you meet the $150.00 minimum. ** Remember, if you are ordering private/custom labels you most order in 10 unit quantities per scent/style (e.g. 10 Campfire tins, 10 Lemon jars, 10 Merlot Wine Barrels, etc..). Additional label charges and set-up fees may apply.
Q: Isn't shipping too expensive on candles from the west coast to the east coast?
A: Not as much as you would think. Since we ship a lot of candles, we have great negotiated rates with our shipping carriers.
Q: Candles get too dusty in our store..how can I prevent that?
A: Our Custom Candles are shrink wrapped that protects them from dust and customers poking at them.
Q: We already carry candles and have a good relationship with our current vendor.
A: Great, stay with them! We have found that most customers purchase our Custom Candles as collectibles (they often say they are too pretty to burn). Consequently, we compliment any current candle selection you may have while offering your customers a one-of-a-kind candle creation!
Q: How do I see wholesale prices?
A: Once you fill out our Wholesale Application and we create an account for your store, you can log in to see wholesale prices, past orders, invoices, marketing material and more..
Q: Do you design custom candles?
A: Yes, Candles by Cleo can create one of a kind custom candles. Pricing depends on the complexity of design and molds and can include corporate logos, family crests/names, custom labels and just about any composition you can think of! Please contact us at [email protected]o.com for a quote.
Q: What are your custom candles made from?
A: Our Custom Candles can be made with Soy or Paraffin wax. Paraffin wax is often preferred as there is no container to hold the wax and keep its form (pure soy and coconut wax is very soft) so paraffin custom candles burn much longer. Actually, a lot of customers who purchase our custom candles don't even burn them as they think they are too pretty to ruin :)
