August's Amazing Aromas

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

O.K. Gals I'm crying now. Thanks for all the advice. I will not return it. I will not exchange it. I will display it and "get over" the fact it is unuseable wax. After all, 20 bucks cost a whole lot less than the price of their tears.

 

Life lesson # 100000000000000000 It's not the gift but the love exchanged.

 

I knew that anyway I just needed a smack in my wax addicted head.

Cheryl, IMO, you're doing the right thing! Good for you girl!

 

Tonight I'm melting Baked Vanilla Crunch. OMG, it's so warm and delicious smelling. I think I'll mozey over to Carol's and pick up bag #2 of this one.

 

Good night!

trep... happy birthday to your son!

 

My kids survived the first day of school... I think my son got lost a few times (his first day of high school in a very big school!)... but he came home laughing about it... my daughter seems to be happy with her classes... I think they are secretly happy to be back to a routine... although they do not bounce out of bed in the morning...

 

Thanks for the well wishes.... hope everyone's children have a good year whatever their ages may be... we are all in different stages... enjoy every minute.. and enjoy the memories.

mp, I have been cleaning all day right along with you! In fact, I am scenting primarily with "Fabuloso Lavender Multi-Purpose Cleaner"! (This stuff is great, the scent lingers for quite awhile.)

 

In the non-Fabuloso rooms, I have Norman's Sand and Sea Spray. This is my first tart from them.

Cheryl - Coming from someone whose mother always made sure I knew when a gift bombed - even when I was quite little and trust me, MOST of them bombed in her opinion - you're doing the right thing.

Mpfand - Is the garden rain scent from mainstays good? That's the only scent in tarts that my Walmart doesn't carry, and I haven't bothered to smell the candle. I'm hoping they'll get it in one of these days, since I want to try them all.

Garden Rain is one of my favorite from Mainstays. I've only melted it once, but it's a really nice, clean scent. I thought it'd be good in the room where our company will be staying since it's not too overpowering. Not everyone likes a lot of scent. I'm sure your Wal-Mart will get it eventually. If they still don't have it in a week or so let me know and I'll send you a couple. Our Wal-Mart didn't have Hazelnut Creme for the longest time, but when I went the other day they finally had it. I've had it melting all day and I really like it!

I feel awful for you mom!

 

 

Simmering Lavendar Rain Oil this evening-still have that migraine. Can't remember where this came from-Randall's Candles? Think so-anyway-smells lovely!

Hi all! Tonight I've got Sweet Tator Pie from Crosscreek in the LR, Warm Apple Pie from Mainstays in the BR and a real apple pie cooling on the stove. Smells great in here!

Winding down with a Voluspa candle in Sawara Cypress scent.

 

After all the different scents I've been burning and melting today, it's nice to have just one single small flame going for tonight.

Tonight I'm melting a Simply Home YC that I found in Kohls, its

 

Bath Bubbles

 

Just started melting kinda smells like a mix between baby powder and soap, but good though.

I just put on a late night melt, Orange Caramel Crumble from CFTKR. It smells delicious! I think I like caramel scents more than I thought.

It's good to read everyone seemed to enjoy thier scents today. Happy times to all of you that still have your children home. My melting wasn't too important today. Got a call this morning that my DH was being rushed to the hospital from work. He had a heart attack, but they put a stint in one artery, so tonight is really crucial. I'm melting my first tart of the evening...Frangelico Streusel by Brown Bag. I love it! I'm going to light a candle since the flame will help me get through the night, along with reading all your posts before I head back to the hospital.

I'm really scared.

Thanks Patsy.

I am starting the day out with Wild Huckleberry from Huckleberry Layne--this is one great scent--kind of a sweet blueberry aroma. Love it.

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

Heart... prayers for your husband... hugs to you for strength...

 

... will light some blue this morning...

[floridamom03 0]

Good morning everyone

 

Heart, I'm very sorry to hear your husband had a heart attack. You will both be in my prayers.

 

I am melting Nene's White Almond Biscotti this morning. Have a great day!

Melting Plump Blueberry this morning...

[Guest]

Heart, sending prayers your way! I hope everything turns out well with your DH!

 

I'm going to melt Frosted on the Pumpkin when I make breakfast in a bit.

[Juletones 1]

Heart2Heart, I'm sending prayers your way as well. Lighting the blue for your DH today.

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

Heart - I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. I hope he's completely well very soon. Big hugs to you and your family.

 

This morning, it's lavender silk from can-do in the computer room. This is one of my absolute favorites! I also have pumpkin spice from mainstays in the kitchen, and euphoria from missy's tempting tarts in my bedroom. I haven't decided on what I want in the living room yet. I will when I head in there to start the kids on their school work.

 

I hope you all have a fabulous day!
