Thanks to lonegirl for this month's thread title. What are you melting/burning today?

[Juletones]

Love this month's title. Thanks Lonegirl.

This morning I'm melting Tara's Candle Cottage - Sweet Corn Pudding and Vermont Maple Syrup. Also, Ten Digit Creations - Butterscotch Creme Brulee

Happy May!

- Bittersweet (Scentsible Scents) - "tart, somewhat bitter berries and sweet, earthy scents of green leaves." I don't get any of that but it is a lovely scent anyway; all pine tree but very mellow (even though the throw is strong) - no astringent "pinesol/pine cleaner" at all. Anyone else try this one? I wonder if it was mis-labeled !
- Papaya Dragon Fruit (Pics, Petals, & Scents) - very nice fruit scent and has a good throw going in my powder room.

Good Morning

It's rainy and gray out this morning. I started off melting Krispy Treats from Sugar & Spice. Unfortunately, I really could not smell it. It kind of smelled like plain wax in the cup, but wanted to melt it to be fair. It had a tiny hint of some sort of smell, but it was only detectable with my nose almost into the wax. This had cured for a good 3 weeks. It must be the scent, because other tarts from that order smell fine. Oh well

I did another random grab and pulled Crescent Rolls from FP, which I find to be a bit yeasty by itself. I have it going with some Sun Harbor Scents Bear Claw & I think it is working together

Melting Ava's Buttery Maple Corn Muffins @ work this morning...yummmmy

Melting sweet serendipity from Bellas and baked apple from lsc

I'm melting Haley's Vanilla Spectacular today. It goes perfectly with our spectacular weather, which will probably be short lived.

And keeping with my theme, I hope May is a spectacular month for all of you!

That is on my wish list - do you like it?

Well...it seems to have a lot of floral which is not bad but not my favorite. I like it enough to keep it going for a second day but probably would not reorder. I smell the lemon & bergamot....and I detect grapefruit which is not listed...hmmmm. But I am known for being scent illiterate.

Karen... . Oh dear....LOL! !!!!
I have to say...I don't think these need to cure like my older ones did....or it could be the particular scents....they are amazingly strong!!

[candlelove]

It's an ice cream day today-

Wahm's Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
CFTKR Pistachio Ice Cream
CFTKR Mexican Fried Ice Cream

[NMhoneybear]

Cute name, Lonegirl!

Having to change out a bunch of those darn Haley Candles tarts today. Bummer. Won't buy them again.

Put on:

Wahm's Pink Zucchini in the bedroom
LSC Orange Crush in the meditation room
TBG Cherry Bubbles in the great room
LSC Blackberry Cotton Candy in the kitchen

Thanks, MaggiMae! I like all those elements so I think I will try it (eventually ).

I stared some new ones...
- Orange Cream Danish (Shayz) - good throw and a nice, fresh orange! I like it a lot...no bakery in it to me, maybe a tiny bit of vanilla.
- Midnight Bamboo (Candle Dippers) - a rare dud from Candle Dippers...almost zero throw

I am melting White Cake from CFTKR. Hope everyone is having a good day! It seems a little quieter on here today

Hi all. I am melting CYS Lemon Buttercream Sables today.

Recently DH and I put together a massive shelving unit and I moved my tart collection to a new location. They used to be in two deep drawers (I posted this as storage p0rn once) and now they are in one really big wicker drawer. Both locations are cube shelving, but the second is from Ikea and dwarfs the first, which is from Target. That's why two drawers can suddenly fit into one. I have a divider in the middle to separate bakery from fruity, and floral/clean is stored in a big glass jar in the same shelving unit.

Having most of my melts in one drawer makes me even more motivated to melt through some of my stash. Combined with upcoming summer weather and an interest in buying some new board games, I am having no trouble resisting wax purchases these days. (My recent hefty stock-up at LOL helps get me ready for summer, too.) I'll have to make the most of it before the tides turn, as they surely will someday. (If Crosscreek had a sale, I would probably cave.)

Roserent - I've tried their Bittersweet & really like it - very unique! I don't get any pine sniff to it at all, tho. So...either yours is mislabeled or mine was.

I'm melting CFTKR's Toasted Sugar Corn Pudding Fluff. I put this on and had to go back out for a bit & came home to a wonderful smelling house!
