Lucky for you Boogie that you finished up all your holiday tarts. Nautilique-You sound like you are making quite a dent too. I had to pack a big box of mine away today. I better not order any new ones next Christmas. I melted some of them throughout January but I am really more of a seasonal melter. I added them to the box of leftover Autumn and Halloween scents. I also have a large box of some of my Spring and Summer scents in the garage too.

I have quite a bit of tarts out now that I want to concentrate on using up and hopefully I can without ordering more. I am dying to try out Almost Country though. I might just limit myself to one vendor a month. That will be February's order.

My Banana Ivy is still going strong so I will not change it out yet.

Laurie - That's a heartbreaker. [smilie=th_cry2yw3] Bless your compassionate heart for stopping to help.

Aria - that candle label is beautiful! [smilie=th_00000020]

I'm melting Nene's Cinnamon Glazed Fritters - delicious! [smilie=th_LOVE]

Tonight is Dream Tarts - Bayberry. Going OOB... [smilie=th_smiley-crying]

Maggie - you have another good list of scents!

My kitty is watching the heater vent, and has been for the last couple of days. I wish I could hear what she hears! I think? :o

Laurie, so sad for the family. The dog we just lost was also a yellow lab. They are wonderful family pets.

Good Morning--starting mine out with Crosscreek Mango Papaya--another lovely day on tap for the Ozarks. I am getting ready to go to Iowa on Friday to welcome my dad home and to stay and get him settled for a couple of weeks. He is so excited to be going home.
Today is the tomorrow that worried you yesterday and all is well.

Good Morning WaxHeads!
[smilie=th_hello]
I hope everyone is doing well.
Picked out my morning scents last night, to make it easier on myself when I'm bleary-eyed.
[smilie=th_oregonian_mornincoffe
Starting the day with Cranberry Christmas by OMG Candles in the hall
Holiday Frost by Spotted Hog in the living room
Snowberry by CBV in the kitchen
Still have Snowman Balls by Candle Dippers going strong in my room
I just discovered how much I LOVE this scent. Anyone know who else carries it? I messaged Candle Dippers (on vacation till the 2nd) because they have it on the clearance page, but without a quantity available (some do have quantities - normally I would assume only one is available unless noted, but some other scents have a (1) after them, so I'm really confused). Anyway I need MORE of that!
I also need a small fix of a couple of faves from Can-Do, I see she's open this morning. Anyone know of any re-opening specials? $3.95 for 6 tarts is special-enough for me to order, just wondering. I've also been trying to get in on the Candle Cubbard special, but finding it a little confusing (or myself a little slow - probably the latter).

Hey Jedda, I think one (the fruity) may be Berry Bewitching Brew and the other one (with the coffee note) is Witches Brew. Here are her descriptions of both:
BERRY BEWITCHING BREW: Top notes of peach, apricot, and blackberries, middle notes of mandarin, cinnamon and rose and nicely balanced with just a hint of woodsy musk
WITCHES BREW: a secret scent that is mystical
Maybe that solves your mystery




You solved it! I blame the handfuls of antihistamines that I've been relying on for my allergies. The names are close enough that I didn't notice the difference.

Berry Bewitching Brew is the fruity one that I had in the stash, and Witches Brew is the one from my swap box. It was really nice, and I would reorder it in the future. (Though I would like to know what the "real" description is. I smell coffee, spices, and fruit... intriguing.)

Good Morning all!

Debra~ Thanks about the scents...my dog stares at the vent too....I always wonder what it is she sees/smells/hears! [smilie=th_confused3]

Trep~ Great news about your Dad! [smilie=th_cc15] What a wonderful thing for you to settle him back in...I am sure he is so happy...what they say is true, "There is no place like home!"

This morning:
Ginger Shortbread from LSC...this one was in the Holiday scents but I think it is good all year.
Hansel & Gretels House from Perfect Scents

Have a good one! :)

debra, maybe your kitty does hear something! A couple of summers ago, our cat would sit upstairs and stare at the ceiling in one of the dormers. Posted ImageI mean, he would literally sit up there for hours! I couldn't figure out why. A couple of days later we realized we had bats up in our attic!!!Posted Image He could hear them before we did!

Hi folks. I'm melting Scentsy Sentimental Cider today from a CF friend. Thanks buddy! [smilie=th_76d65c2f]

Don't have a lot of money for wax these days because I'm spending a bunch on craft supplies. My yarn wreaths are coming along nicely but not quite ready for p0rn just yet. I'll post when they're done! As for wax, Shady Mountain and Crosscreek are next on my list.

Did you have a lot of them? My sister had one in her house that they didn't know about and one night on the way to bed my BIL got knocked in the head with it! [smilie=th_smiley_emoticons_fluc Creepy. We have woods behind our house and when we moved in we would notice in the summer that bats would be flying all around our yard. One night we saw that they were coming out from under the eaves. [smilie=th_shout] YIKES...I freaked out. Once we counted up to 32 and gave up counting. They were packed under there like sardines..thankfully, they never got into the attic but all I wanted was for the old DH to get them out. Well, we had someone come and seal up under the roof and behind the gutter and the bats disappeared...but now we have the BUGGIEST yard in the world. Can't even sit outside after dark at the pool. I should have left well enough alone. [smilie=th_sad-1] I miss my bats. I never thought I'd ever utter those words.

My cat sat and stared at the pantry door in our old apartment all day until we realized that there was a mouse in there. It was the first...and last... mouse that ever came into that apartment !

Today's melt is CFTKR Ancient Incense. Love it !
