- 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 th_oregonian_mornincoffee.gif

 

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 th_sad-1.gif

 

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 th_sml29.gif

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

 

And keeping with my theme, I hope May is a spectacular month for all of you! [smilie=th_a194]

Careful! You'll get the curing police called on you, missy!!

 

I want to try mine so badly but they are a week or less old. So, they sit and when I am getting out my other tarts to melt, I sniff them all again.

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. :rolleyes: But I am known for being scent illiterate. ;)

 

Karen... :D. 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!!

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 :(

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.)

Great May title Lonegirl! Ok.....all those that think that MAYbe they need more candles or tarts....raise their hand. [smilie=th_ee29]

Roserent - I've tried their Bittersweet & really like it - very unique! [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy] I don't get any pine sniff to it at all, tho. :blink: So...either yours is mislabeled or mine was. [smilie=th_scratch]

 

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! [smilie=th_dancing_smile]
