DIY Starter Kits?

[LordDavon]

Wow, you guys are really making the DIY idea much easier! I am really glad I asked. I haven't had such a helpful thread, in a long time.

DC, PC and brit: Do you guys mind if I shoot you a PM, when my stuff arrives?

 

[Prettycat191]

Don't mind at all!

Guessing DC was me, CD maybe? lol

I can usually catch my dyslexic mistakes, but I miss a few. Yup, it was you.

Mine's easy to get straight, since it's an abbreviation for Personal Computer's lol.

I ordered the DIY master kit from OSDIY. I also got 120ML of 48MG Nicotine PG and 120ML of VG from RTS. I think that is enough to start me off. I hear that many flavors can be found at Michaels, in the baking section. Since I am picking up some of my daughter's craft supplies there for Christmas, I think I am going to check them out.

I'll tell you what's nice about the DIY Liquid forum. It really doesn't matter what hardware anyone uses, for purposes of most discussions. It's all about liquids, or at least somehow forms a connection. It's where everyone can discuss the topic on a completely equal level.

In General, some people will answer to a question regarding their PV, "toss that away". Well, hey. It's what I have, am using, and it's what I'm asking about. There are other people who do have an answer, and some of them even use the thing.

My local Michaels had 0 usable flavorings. Hobby Lobby has some of the Lorann's though.

What you should do is look for a baking shop in your area, there's one near here and they had tons of Lorann for even cheaper than Hobby Lobby.

Read the diy flavoring sticky for good info, including which lorann flavors are ok to use.

The Michaels here doesn't either. And the ladies that work there aren't very personable or friendly. Hobby Lobby was closed. I don't know.

 

[Prettycat191]

Must have been a Sunday, Hobby Lobby's are closed on Sunday because they're a "Christian" company.

 

[mgordon1100]

No, it wasn't Sunday. It was Tuesday. They close at 8:00pm, while everyone else stays open until 9.

LorAnn just sent me there new 2011-2012 catolog today, it's a good idea to get on there mailing list, just saying,,,nice to have on hand and there pricing is pretty good ordering right from them on line at www (dot)lorAnnoils (dot) com pricing on a dram is $1.40 1oz is $5.50 and 4oz $14.00 with free shipping on all orders over $75 and of course they also have different coupons available at times as well as deals on 24-1-Dram assorted bottles for $26.75

 

[LordDavon]

Thanks guys. I've never heard of Hobby Lobby, but there is one on Google Maps about 20 minutes up the road. I will check out which flavors are good.

 

[Prettycat191]

I forgot that they close early.

Hobby Lobby had 2 dram bottles for $2.20 I think it was. They were even cheaper for a tester size than ordering from Lorann directly. (The cake place I mentioned was $1.75 for 2 dram bottles.)

Walmart had some for $1 for 2 dram bottles, but it was in a weird place at that store, next to the flowers and Home decor. A little rack on the side of the end-cap.

ETA: Not all walmarts have them, only the one next to work had them here.

While Lorann's can be used in a pinch, I expect you'll see a lot more DIY being done with FA or TPA flavors (Capellas also has some decent stuff), or Natures Flavors and Faeries Finest (mints) in organics. (I still like my Seedman, for base tobacco )

 

[CaminoDiablo]

I only use PA and I'm never disappointed. I love the selection and they tell you everything in it. I mix at 20% and they just work for me. I have used others but as for the selection markfm your correct.

 

[LordDavon]

I will understand all this eventually. I'm just glad that you guys know which ones to use for which flavors.

Just NEVER I mean NEVER get the pizza flavor. Threw up and had to throw away my atty lol. BTW, I've been thinking, I have flavors I never use. You guys like want to sample and trade flavors?

 

[Prettycat191]

I guess the only thing I use regularly of lorann's is the cotton candy lol. The others can be good, just haven't had much time to mix new things recently.

Don't think I'll be buying any more lorann for awhile at least. About to have a lot of fun with TPA and FA
