Laurie & MaggieMae - I did find it several places, like here, but they were all vendors I've never heard of before. Not that that's a bad thing. [smilie=th_pardon] When the melt started out, I smelled mostly apples and fireside, ,which I liked, but, the longer it went, it turned slightly 'cologne-y', which I'm not a fan of :wacko: , so ended up turning it off. I have a large 2oz melt left & can send half to each of U, if you'd like to try it - ? [smilie=yes]

 

 

I won't say no this time, thank you! I happen to love "cologn-y" so it sounds like a match made in heaven. Thank you!

[smilie=thank_you]

I saw them here too, anyone heard of this vendor (Almost Country)?:

Today I finished off another winter scent - my bag of Sweet Snow by Haley's Heavenly.

I still have a bag of cubes from Nene's I think, but I will hang onto it, because it's something that would work any time of year I think.

I have Nutmeg & cedar by CandleDippers in my room. I can't say I can pick out the cedar, but it smells really good, I like it.

Frankincense & Myrrh by BH&G in my bathroom, but it needs a change-out

DS#2 has Cool Water by Kim's Tart Candles in his room. Very *manly* for a now 11-year old!

and DD#1 has Vanilla Oak by Can-Do in her room, it's wafting into the hallway, I LOVE that one!

Anyone else plotting to pick up a few when she re-opens on the 31st? Do I remember hearing there would be a 1-day sale then?

I NEED some of that Vanilla Oak and some Eucalyptus Ice if she still has it, if she doesn't I may have to beg and plead!

[smilie=th_allah]

Have a great evening, friends!

Jason, Could you post the link for your youtube reviews? I'd love to see it! :)

Sweet, you don't have to do that...but I thank you so much for asking! :thwetkissf: However, I might just place an order with Almost Country since Laurie has found it there and I just got an email about lots of sale tarts!!!

I definitely have heard of them! I have ordered there MANY times and Linda is a doll! Oh dear, I feel another order coming on!! ;)

 

Earlier it was:

Sea Salt Caramel and Cinnamon something or other from Auntie Di's (the label is smeared)

Now it's:

Pumpkin Brulee Crumble from Starring Fragrances...Debra's post reminded me I had this!

Macadamia Nut Cake & Sweet Ripe Bananas from Bizzy B

Melting Buttercream Frosting from my just arrived order from A Primitive Glow...yummy! I am pleased with everything so far. p0rn coming!!!

[smilie=th_dancing_smile] Can't wait to see it!

Maggie, oh no! Have you ever worn contact lenses before or is this your first time? I have worn the Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism for a few years and love them! Maybe you just need a week or so to get adjusted to them. Wear mine all day, every day.

Yep...I've been wearing lens for about 20 years.. [smilie=th_sSig_what] ...but I always wore regular B&L...I have a tiny astigmatism but my eyes are getting rotten as I am aging so she thought I should try a pair...Boy- once I put them in everything was crazy [smilie=th_cocktail] ...very GROOVY..my eye muscles were killing me and I felt like my eyes were crossing!

I have also ordered from Almost Country a couple of times. I would order again.

 

Trep - that is so funny, and so like something I would do! I reach and grab and never look at labels!

 

I have a really nice candle burning that was part of a gift basket - Pacifica's Russian Fir. These candles are so pretty they are hard to burn!

Hey everyone! I followed the scented trail back here :lol: I've been super busy at work - picking up extra shifts to financially prep for my March vacation. I work like a maniac from New Years until the day before I leave, and while it's exhausting, it's all worth it once I put my toes in the sand [smilie=th_smiley_emoticons_hurr 39 more days.....

 

Trep - so glad to read about your Dad - awesome news!! Bless him - we should all be so lucky to have the will to work through it at that age :D

 

Big hugs for you, Debra - so sad that you lost one of your furbabies :( Thinking of you and your family.

 

In celebration of my LSC sale order shipping today (YAY!) I'm melting:

 

LSC Honey Patchouli in the living room, and Earthen Oak in my bedroom. I also have County Line's Pink Berry Bundt Cake going in the bathroom.

 

Have a great Wednesday, everyone!! :wub:

Almost Country is great to deal with--Linda is a super fast shipper and a great communicator. I have ordered lots and lots of tart warmers from her and have always been very pleased. Her tarts are very good, too.

 

 

Starting my day out with Crosscreek Blueberry Bing. First time to try this one. Have a great day.

I hope Jason doesn't mind if I share:

However, I might just place an order with Almost Country since Laurie has found it there and I just got an email about lots of sale tarts!!!

Did you get an email from Almost Country about a sale? I looked around on the site for a place to sign up for a newsletter or email notices but didn't see one.

SO - give it up! WHAT LOTS OF TART SALES????

Oh dear, I feel another order coming on!! ;)

 

We must be twins, separated at birth - I have the same feeling!

So exciting Sheila ! Where are you headed?

 

In celebration of my LSC sale order shipping today (YAY!) I'm melting:

 

Waaaah - I haven't gotten one yet. Looking and Looking. Looking for a Shady Mountain CnS too, somebody said they got one so it shouldn't be long! I was fearing that she might have gotten overwhelmed since she was planning to close anyway and cancel orders. Perish the thought!

 

 

This morning I am rewarming Sweet Snow by Haley's in the living room, kitchen and hallway, but I'm sure I will change it out when I get back from dropping the kids off, unless it knocks me out when I get home - I can hardly smell it right now.

I did split a snowflake tart of Alpine Snowdrift by CFTKR between 2 small bathroom warmers and they smell great. I was afraid they wouldn't melt, but they are behaving nicely!

Also changed out my room and put Arctic Air by Candle Dippers in there.

HAPPY HUMP DAY CandleFind Friends!

Good Morning! thbubblesmiley.gif

 

I have Thompson's Spice Cake melting this morning. Smells great, but I also plugged in a new wallflower in Juniper Breeze in our mudroom and is sort of taking over the whole first floor icon_eek.gif...hope it tones down a bit.

 

DITTO on Almost Country...love Linda's Tarts! She is a sweet lady and ships quickly! Her tarts are very clean, packaging is top notch and her scents are out of this world. onesmiley1-1.gif I got the sale email too...bag.gif

 

Maggie, maybe your eyes just need to get used to the new contacts? I recall having to adjust to them for a week or two...but didn't experience anything extreme like you've described! Yikes! gluck.gif Hopefully will get to post p0rn later on....

 

DS#1 just got on the bus, so now I need to go wake DS#2

 

Have a great morning everyone!

Melting Sweet Cranberry Chutney from BH&G. As soon as DD wakes up I'm going to add Eucalyptus from Scentsy to her room. She's home today sick with a nasty cold. She stayed home yesterday, too. I guess that's what happens when you go to two sleepovers and a birthday party all in the same week-end.

Good morning, everyone. I am new to these boards! This morning I am burning Yankee's Pure Radiance Beachfront....smell good...a very light coconut which I enjoy because I dislike overwhelming coconut scents. I have Kringle Splash burning in the living room and love the fresh scent!

 

Enjoy your day!!

[smilie=th_Welcome1-1] Jeanne--glad to have you with us. My Yankee store had that Beachfront burning in the store when I was there Monday and you are right--it is a nice light coconut scent.

 

 

For this afternoon it is Scentsationals Oatmeal Cookie and Vanilla Bean. I put one upstairs and one down and they mix very well together.

 

 

Have a great afternoon everybody.

http://www.almostcountrytartsandwarmers.com/

 

Thanks Aria...The Doc did mention that my astigmatism might not be bad enough yet....that could be why they are so crazy. I didn't throw them out yet so I might give them another go! :)

 

Mpfand~ Hope your DD feels better soon! [smilie=th_balloons]

Okay, I've got to be slow or something. I've been looking at her "regular" site, and I see on the home page where it says

"I am having a huge After the Holidays Sale on tarts. Check out the sale link below. Don't miss out on the great bargains"

But I'll be darned if I see anything when I click the tag that says "sale" other than 2 warmers and a candle shade.

What am I doing wrong?

And as for Jason - he really IS adorable. What's cookin' Jason. That was too funny!

It's not you...it's me. [smilie=th_yellow5] Switch what I said. The Fireside is on her regular site, right? Then it must be her ebay site that has the sale.

Oh boy, it's been a LONG day!!! [smilie=th_sorry_]

Laurie - I'll put it in the mail to you asap! I tried Almost Country about 3 years ago, too. Everything was good - would (or should I say will [smilie=th_cha40] ) order again.

 

In celebration of my LSC sale order shipping today (YAY!) I'm melting:

Sheila - I've got order envy. [smilie=th_pardon] Do you mind if I ask what your order # was?

 

Mpfand - hope your DD feels better soon!

 

I'm melting CFTKR's Pumpkin Nog - yummmmm! [smilie=th_thumbs20up]
