  1. Melting Nene's Kahlua Cafe. Good throw, strong and wonderful scent. I know some of you have said you can't stand coffee smells, but this one is great.
  2. Melting Cottage Hills Creation's Sugar Cookie in my computer room tonight. YUMMY! Burning a YC Vanilla Lime Candle in the kitchen. Also........YUMMY!
  3. Trep, sounds like you made out like a bandit at Yankee! I just got an email today from them saying they've marked down their clearance stuff even more as the sale ends Monday. It was all I could do not to throw on some jeans and head to the mall! But I didn't. I've been under the weather all day at home in my sweats where I shall remain for the rest of the evening. Everyone have a good night. Oh, I've had my Frosted Pumpkin candle burning all day. Thinking about either putting on a tart or burning my Biscotti Woodwick or maybe both!
  4. Got my first order from Sugar & Spice yesterday. Not sure how I feel about clamshells. The soy was so soft that it was a pain in the patoot to even get the chunkage separated to pop two out to melt...however, if the scents and longevity are worth it, I'll learn to deal. First up last night was the Peach Cobbler. I smelled NO cobbler, only peach. It was a nice peach, but I was hoping for more of a baking scent. Nice throw and longevity however! This morning I popped in Wildberry Zinger Tea, and WOW! I totally love this one and will definitely reorder! Jewel
  5. Well, guys I really did it today. Went to the mall--hit White Barn Candle first and got some more of the $5 specials--three of the Passionfruit and Guava and one Honeysuckle Nectar and some $1 lotions to give as gifts--then on to Yankee where I got a bunch of tarts 6 for $5, three small jars for $7, three more for $10, a new spring tartburner as I don't have a 12 watt one for anything but fall and some more regular priced tarts that I had a coupon for $10 off a purchase of $25. By the time I got done I had spent $62 with a savings of $64 so I did OK. Most of this is for my own use but also a bunch is for Easter gifts this spring. I also bought two sets of 4 tarts for $1 at the Dollar Tree. I had the candle in one of the scents--Cranberry Citrus this fall and it was nice. The other set was White Gardenia--will let you know how they do. At a quarter a piece I can't do too badly. I have YC's Macintosh and Peach going for tonight. Well, that has been my day. See you all tomorrow!!
  6. Candlefan, are you using a tart or a candle? I tried the candle ths fall, a housewarmer jar, but did not get much scent throw. I loved the scent, but just not able to get the throw I like. I did get a good throw from the Fall Harvest housewarmer. I recently repurchased that scent in both a candle and some tarts. Cyngreen, I was using the tart. I had a large Housewarmer jar in the fall and actually was quite pleased with the throw. I also dectected more of an "apple-ly" scent in the big candle. Sure, the tart throws a bit stronger, but I thought the candle did well (for a Yankee, lol). I like Harvest too. Only tried the tart, though. There was one called Fall Festival which I loved in the tart and it was STRONG. I rushed out and bought the big candle and could barely smell it. Still thinking maybe I got a dud. Maybe you got a dud "Autumn Wreath"? Looks like I need a lesson on using quotes up there!
  7. I'm still burning sweet oj & chili pepper from the mississippi mama. Man, it does a great job of covering up that stinky shoe odor you get from 4 little boys and a husband. LOL!
  8. I received my Can-Do order yesterday and she threw in one of those cute fruit loop tarts, too. I had a very pleasant scent surprise yesterday and discovered a new favorite smell. Sage and Citrus has totally impressed me. . Does anyone know if this was an original Yankee Candle scent ? I am melting the Candle's by Victoria version.
  9. I have one of my favorite scents going, YC's Autumn Wreath. This scent is just too good to only use in the Fall.
  10. I dumped the daytime fragrance early as I was in the mood for a change. I have YC's Christmas Cookie going in the living room and Beanpod Beach Walk soybeads in the upstairs bath.
  11. Melting YC's new one, Sweet Violet. It smells just like it sounds, like a sweet floral. It's only ok. Didn't wow me. Of course, I'm not that into florals and I don't think I was in the mood for a floral today either.
  12. Last night and this morning it was Angie's Cozy Home. This one smells delicious and is perfect for apple lovers. I want this one in a candle...
  13. I'm melting Nene's Orange Spice...this is one of my favorites, I've got 4 large tarts and a 1 lb Krumble bag to go through! :P Jewel
  14. I'm about to start burning sweet oj & chili pepper from The Mississippi Mama.
  15. Good Morning all--today is spiced cranberry from Huckleberry Layne--very nice fruity spicey fragrance for a cold winter day.
  16. :P I boobooed!!!!! It was my first post and I started a new subject instead of replying. Sorry eileen
  17. Welcome to the forum, Jenn! Hope you enjoy it here as much as I do.
  18. Now that the spaghetti smell from dinner is gone :P , I'm burning delish from momma's soy tart mart.
  19. Thanks guys for the CHC advice. I had ordered a couple of weeks ago when she was closed and was really surprised when she shipped so fast. They all smell pretty strong cold but will probably email her anyway just so as not to waste them. Thanks again. Forgot to say I am doing Angie's Lilac Blossoms for late afternoon and evening--this is a very nice lilac.
  20. I just opened my first order from CHC--I ordered two of the 10 pack samplers so have 20 new scents to try plus two freebies she sent. I know lots of you out there really like this brand so I hope I will too. Will let you know after I"ve tried them.
  21. It's cold out and I'm off today just hanging out at home, so I wanted something cozy. I'm doing a YC classic, Home Sweet Home. I love this scent, but hate the pink color, so I only use it in tart form. Can't go wrong with this scent.
  22. Now I'm burning Hansel and Gretel's House by Momma's Soy Tart Mart, and it smells delicious!
  23. This morning in my office I'm melting DreamTarts Butter Pecan Pie...now I'm hungry. Jewel
  24. I'm burning gardenia from Fox Hill Candle Company. It smells so pretty!
