Hello everyone! I am a huge candle nut and very big on smells. I have a nose that can sniff a trace of anything from a mile away and I am very into smells. Years ago my daughter at around the age of 4 leaned over a candle to sniff it and her hair caught on fire! Poof! She batted it out as I ran to her and by the time I reached her, the fire was out and her hair was singed. One other time my kitchen cabinet burned as well. After thatm I swore off candles due to safety. Then I discovered *SCENTSY*!!! :wub: Here in Canada, Scentsy with shipping runs at over $8 CAD a bar. :angry: It's nuts. However, in my opinion no product comes close to the quality of Scentsy products, not that I've used myself anyhow. Recently I decided to take a step back from my career as an RFP Proposal Manager and focus on the kids so I resigned earlier this year. My husband has earned some decent promotions and we downsized our home to lower bills and I am LOVING the time with my children, namely my 10 year old daughter. Previously I was working day and night and weekends and holidays and I barely saw the family. I need to change my life and stop killing myself!! I have decided to make wax tarts at home (and other scented things) and hopefully once I perfect my recipes and scents, sell my tarts and whatnots locally and via my website I am creating. No, I won't earn a killing, but hopefully it will be an enjoyable hobby. First though, I need to sit back and learn, make some batches, tinker around and educate myself. Happy to be here, look forward to getting to know you guys.
