April's Addicting Aromas !

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

O.K. I have to reveal something about me I haven't told til now. When I burn and melt I always correlate the categories. i.e. all florals, bakery etc. I don't dare mix. Unfortunately, this is a costly obsession, because I have 3 burners with the same fragrance and truely love to have the same candle in 2-3 other rooms. I can cut a lot of the big melts in 2 pieces and that helps, but you can't imagine my OCD when I underbuy tarts for a candle or vice versa. Crazy I know but my home does smell co ordinated and lovely. I can do like a mix if the candle has coconut/vanilla/raspberry I can do any or all of those.

Oh my.... and I thought I was the only one!!!!

Apparently I am in need of an intervention....I went in Kohl's and they had the For Everybody Candles BOGOF. I picked up a Sugar Cookie and a Lemon Crisp. Now the Lemon Crisp is a small gift for one of my daughter's close guy friends who loves candles. Then I went to Ross where I found three Colonial At Home candles for really cheap prices. I got pear, watermelon, and moroccan spice. I also picked up two small Root tins. I've never tried Root candles before (they don't have very good reviews)!

Dabba - I have gone to those places and those items just jump into my cart! I am not responsible! LOL! I have several Root tins as well as the glass containers. I think the tins actually have more throw than the containers. The pillars...well...

[Guest tammye]

Today I am melting LOL and I don't remember how it goes if it is Caramel Green Apples or if it is Green Apples Caramel. Whichever way it is it smells so wonderfu.

[Dabbadooey 2]

Heck i wasn't even using a cart.....those dern things leaped right into my arms, and when i put them down they cried so i had to pick them back up!

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

I'm melting Tuscaderos Pie Crust. It smells very yummy.

[Guest Anonymous]

Wah - Not starting out well with the melts today. For some reason the PI First Bloom fizzled out pretty fast (in the low wattage melter even) and then I put Spotted Hog's lilac in the tealight melter. On cold smell there was a nasty chemical smell, not much lilac at all. Hoping it would mellow out with heat I put it on, but the chemical smell just got WORSE and carried pretty far so I dumped it almost immediately. I'll let that pack sit another couple of weeks and see if it just needed to cure. I got a pack of iced oatmeal cookies from there too freebie with the order) that has that same smell to it so I hope that's all it is - more curing needed. I now have CHC's Wild Watermelon going - Too early yet but it smells yummy cold.

 

I switched to tarts partly because I was always so frustrated by and disappointed in candles after spending so much money - Some days I have the same thing with tarts but at least it's not a $20.00 jar wasted - It's not so hard to dump $1.00 or so in tart wax..........

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

I had can-do's lemon cheesecake on in the living room earlier today, and it smelled great. But, I wanted a change, so when the tealight went out, I started the other melter with yc's pumpkin spice. Both are great scents.

Melting Nene's Good Day Sunshine and Carols Vanilla Buttercream Crunch.

 

Oh my............this is a great combo. The Good Day Sunshine is such a nice fruity, uplifting scent while the Vanilla Buttercream Crunch is so vanilla creamy. They are working well together as one is in the kitchen and one in the livingroom, meeting 1/2 way in the computer room that I am currently occupying.

 

Both are definate re-orders and 2 of my favorite vendors as well.
