Think I figured me out. CANDLES!

So I was gettin stoney with a buddy of mine and we were just shootin the shit. He has this awesome multicolored candle lit that really gave off a great vibe. Then it hit me... I want to make candles.. but I want to do this for a living, all organic candles, oils, incense, and soaps. I would make an art out of it adding designs and colors. I would even make custom soaps or candles for people, such as custom colors, scents, designs, or even names if it so suits them. I live in southern california minutes away from Venice Beach, an ideal spot to open this little shop of mine.
I'm currently employed full time and making decent money, plus I moved back in with my parents and don't have to pay rent at the moment. I figure that if I start building up an inventory over the next year, save up enough money, and write a good business plan to get a loan, I could actually get this thing off the ground.
If any buddy has any business venture experience and have any tips for me it would be greatly appreciated.
I'm stoked thx for listening

Sounds like an awesome plan, man. I love those moments of inspiration in life. I'll order one from ya when the first batch is ready.

make sure they loan you real money otherwise you're fucking the economy. go for debt-free banking, credit unions maybe, try to study the way loans are done. in fractional reserve banking money that the bank never had is created as soon as you sign.
there is a market for american made goods in america, especially if you educate your market about how it's helping them by keeping wealth in their local economy. there are lots of marketing tricks.
