  1. No melts yesterday - we were in and out of the house all day long, so I never got the melters changed over.

     

     

    Today I'm melting Pink Fruity Loops from Haley's Heavenly Scents. One of my favorites, and it never fails to please me! I'm also trying to finish one of my candles that was left over from LAST summer - Slatkin's Island Colada. Yummy!


  2. Trep- the employees at my closest Walmart are like that, too! I think that they randomly stock products wherever they have an empty spot. This spring, they put the new fruity BH&G jar candles on an end cap in the AUTOMOTIVE section. This was weeks before the other springtime waxies started showing up. So random!


  3. Maggie, Sweet, Shortygal, and others: Thanks for all of the nice words regarding my latest sweater project. I'm about two inches into the lace part, past the yoke. No sleeves and no "body" yet. I'm hoping to have it done by fall - which sounds like a long time, but isn't. It's already summer here, and I can only stand to have that much wool on my lap for a short period of time. At that rate, what would take a month in the winter will actually take three or four months.

     

    Laurie: Nobody has seen "my" sweater yet - there's not enough to photograph. :) The link goes to the pattern designer's blog, and has pictures of that mine will (hopefully) look like when I'm done.

     

     

    Today I'm melting "Pine Noel" from Haley's Heavenly scents. Janet custom mixed Pine and VBN for me, and I really like it.


  4. Hi all! [smilie=th_76d65c2f]

     

    I've been MIA for a bit, with just a few scattered posts, and I'm sorry. We had some internet connection issues, and then some family obligations came up and were taking up a lot of my time. I haven't been melting much, since I haven't been home for more than a few hours at a time. I've been able to keep up on reading using my phone's browser, but it is hard to post on such a small screen.

     

    It is finally looking like things are back to normal (more-or-less.)

     

    I'm melting Haley's "Gooey Temptations" in the living room, and it is very sweet and caramely. I'm spending the rest of my afternoon at home, working on a new sweater for next winter. (This pattern, done in a dark teal color. I haven't taken pictures of my work yet.)

     

    I hope everyone else has a nice relaxing afternoon! [smilie=th_shewiggle]


  5. This week I've been melting through a pile of fall bakery scents from Kim's Tart Candles. I over-ordered this fall, and I'm afraid that they won't hold over the summer. So far I've gone through bags of 'Pumpkin Cheesecake', 'Pumpkin Bread', and 'Grannie's Apple Butter'. All smelled great, and were very strong for about 6 hours before they died down. I'll reorder these scents in the fall.
