Perfect Scent - Red Velvet Cake (Love this scent but I'm learning the melts from PS need to be melted sooner rather than later.)




Why so, Cyn? I'm asking because I just melted something last night from Cottage Hill Creations and it was HORRIBLE. I don't remember earlier ones from there being that way, but I'm wondering if I kept it too long and it *turned* or something. I melted one other from them last night and it was a bit funky too.

Hi CF buddies! I have been so busy with both of the boys' end-of-the-year activities that I haven't had the chance to visit here....oh my goodness. They pack everything into the last 2 weeks of school. Tomorrow is the Renaissance Festival at the middle school and Monday is the Olympics (field day) at the elementary school....Posted Image

Today I am melting Fresh Floral Honeydew from Carol...love it and it's a summer favorite around here.

Have a great afternoon everyone! Posted Image

Started out the day with Yankee Bahama Breeze and Mainstays Tropical Fruit and now it is BBW Fresh Picked Cherries--love this one. I am getting caught up on grocery shopping and housework so now I am going to go read a book. Have a great afternoon everyone.
Today is the tomorrow that worried you yesterday and all is well.

I was just going to ask the same thing! How long is too long? [smilie=th_idontknow]

Today it's Blackberry Marmalade and Blackberry Musk ( [smilie=th_smilies-2] ) ...both from Perfect Scents.

Have a good one! ;)

Not melting anything yet - I just got home and put dinner on. I don't think that the garlic fumes from the kitchen would play nicely with any of my tarts!

Later I'm burning my "Ocean Breeze" candle from MVP while I watch So You Think You Can Dance, drink red wine, and wish that the last day of school would come sooner than next week. The end of the year just KILLS me!

I really love the Spiced Pear...whacha think? Deanna said it's a new one...I love all the extra scents thrown in there.

I liked it, too! Will definitely get it again. [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy]

I am watching "So You Think You Can Dance" tonight - I have never seen it before. Not only are there some good dancers, it is hysterical!

Debra - I try and watch that every summer. Luv seeing how talented those kids are! [smilie=th_shewiggle]

Cyn - I'll echo Laurie & MaggieMae's question.....why? Since they're soy, I've been letting them sit a bit. Maybe I should schedule a PS melt-a-thon? [smilie=th_scratch]

I'm melting Can-Do's Bread Pudding. Smells good enuf to eat! [smilie=th_aa17]

Hi everyone! I've had YC Ocean Water going all afternoon, both in melt and candle form.

I know what everyone means about end of the school year chaos. Field trips, food for end of year parties, dances, major projects due, finals to buckle down and study for, field trip permission forms--I'm exhausted! And I'm not even in school, just a frazzled parent at the ready with checkbook and car keys in hand. :wacko:

Oh well. In a few years, when the kids have gone off to college, I'll be sorely missing these days.

[smilie=th_f5a39fcb] Yes, you have the "essentials"! I've been there!

Tonight I am melting a few more samples (a little off season...) so it is Silver Bells from Scentsy.

I started the day with 'Black Cherry Cake' from Haley's. It smells exactly like a cherry popsicle. I get no cake or bakery notes.

It isn't what I expected, but 'popsicle' sure beats 'cough syrup', which is what most cherry scents smell like to me!

To all involved in the education system: a BIG [smilie=thank_you] [smilie=th_congratulations] to all grads. this year. I am starting off the morning with CYS-Sweet Musk. I'm going to make a real effort to start using up some of my "stash". I hope everyone has a great weekend. It's going to be a hot one here, 90's tomorrow..
