    I am burning YC white chocolate bunnies (trying to use up my stash of YC),YC buttercream and main stays sweet lavender 3 wick. And I am melting mainstays pumpkin spice and up the creeks apple vanilla something.

     

    I too am sad to here of Deana closing up shop. I've noticed that that in the past her fb page wasn't happening as much as other vendors.

     

    Also sad to hear of Jane's diagnosis and that there will be no more HHS. She's had a rough year.

    Good morning all! I have a later shift at Starbucks this morning,so I am getting a chance to melt and burn. Normally,when I work 4am shifts,I am just too tired after work to do anything. So I am taking advantage of waking up before the alarm clock.

    I am burning a YC Jelly Donut candle.

    Sugared Petals

    Melting Scentsationsals from WM dual back of shortbread cookies and the sugared pecans

    CCCC Stuffed French Toast

     

     

    On a side note,I have been trying to use up my stash since starting work in March. I have been buying the BHG,Scentsationals occasionally to help feed the need for more wax.lol I really wish I could order from CFTKR,they were one of the ones I first bought from back in the day. I just can never be online or fight for buying wax. Any thoughts on how to get some CFTKR?

    It's finally starting to feel like fall here in Northern Ca.

    Candles going are:

    YC-apple pumpkin

    red velvet cupcake-smells like a vanilla to me lol

    cranberry chutney

    christmas cookie votive

     

    Melts-

    Crossroads farmhouse-I really pick up on the clove,wont re-order

    Scentsy peppermint dreams

     

    SI coffee sweets-I noticed that her tarts are really hard to melt with the ikea tea lights.For her wax to actually melt I have to use a YC scented tea light to get a strong flame going.

     

    Has anyone else noticed that uses ikea tea lights,that their flames are not as strong as they used to be,perhaps something changed?

     

    Last Wed I have off then next week I start work cleaning a barn both morning and night. Atleast I will have weekends off to melt and burn my smellies.

    Before I take my daughter to nutcracker rehersal I thought I would try to make it the last time I burn my YC shortbread cookie and crisp apple strudel. But I somehow think they know that I want them to die,so I can light something else. I really enjoy lighting the candle for the first time,then I love how it looks like when it gets half way down and after that they seem to never die lol.

     

    Also burning Mainstays 3 scented candle,I think its finally on the last layer of coconut vanilla.

    Melting:Scentsy Peppermint Dreams,BHG A thankful harvest, and TCC Midway something. Cant remember the name,just trying to use up my stash.

    Good Morning everyone. Today it's called let's use up some candles before using new ones. As much as I love candles when I first get them,I hate having this feeling of having to use it up just to start a new one.

    YC crisp apple strudel

    shortbread cookie

    Mainstays-med jar of vanilla ,buttercream frosting and,coconut vanilla.

    Root-honeybuttered crossant votive

    Melting:

    TCC candy corned zuch bread

    Scentsy blueberry cheesecake

    I totally agree! I melted Lake Sunset the other night, and while I found it nice, nothing about it said fall to me.

     

    Tonight I have Yankee Vanila Chai in the warmer, and a Yankee Kitchen Spice jar burning. I actually think both of the scents smell somewhat similar.

    Hey Jason,Vanilla Chai smells like the cider doughnut I have here.

     

    I also noticed that the harvest welcome by YC reminded me of frosted pumpkin. Does anyone else think that?

     

    Today its been:

    Scentsy french toast

    YC salted caramel

    Mainstays cranberry mandrin little jar

    Hello friends. :)

     

    I'm a little jealous about all of the snow you all are getting. We were out today for a while and got "a few flakes". Big whoop! :rolleyes:

     

    Maggie ~ I checked out Nana's Tarts on Etsy last night, too. They are pretty and I'll be for sure watching to see how they throw! Also saw another vendor there that looks interesting, but she is closed at the moment. I think she is called Clark's Creek Candles. I'm going on lock down on January 1st, though. Thinking I might place a little order with Haley's before then. [smilie=yes]

     

    LSC Christmas Splendor from a sweet CF pal [smilie=thank_you]

    Scent Appeal Christmas Bliss

    Homemade Apple Butterscotch Cake and Zucchini Noel

     

     

     

     

    Still burning the GC Spritz Cookie Dough candle, but can't wait til it's gone. Not too impressive. [smilie=th_F_14WA116161617]

     

    Have a good night!

     

     

     

    I too saw clarks creek a few weeks before she closed up shop.Talked to her and sent her stuff I wanted to buy from her thru her etsy shop. Was in contact with her over and over and poof she never replied back. I took that as I scared her with my order? I don't know,but it left me uneasy and I figured there are others to try that will email back and are eager for the business.

     

     

    Janet(HHS)will be closing up shop temporarily due to her upcoming surgery and she's in the process of placing her mom in a nursing home and then having to pack up her whole house up.

    Good morning from sunny CA,were melting and burning this morning:

     

    melting-lemon zuchinni bread,mistle toe

    burning-gingerbread(swan creek almost gone),jackfrost(lol almost gone too)

    ,keylime pie(mainstays almost gone)

     

     

    Today the donation truck came around for the disable vets.I got my candles and tarts going,then grabbed a bag to fill before they got here. I had 2 bags on the curb already,but it seems like when I don't have much time to ponder,it's easier to giveaway/donate. I don't talk myself out of it.
