The Melts go Marching One by One - Hurrah, Hurrah!

[Guest]

I've got Blue Violets from Crosscreek going now... I need to light a candle because it's gotten dark (gee - how did that happen?) I'm so glad the weather is nice. I've not been melting much because I've been gardening, but it looks like rain is going to change that.

 

BTW - if it's dark where you are, don't forget to check out the Super Moon. It's *beautiful*!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend so far.

Housegirl - what do you think about the Morrocan Amber Vanilla? It sounds wonderful!

 

The sniffles have set in, I guess it was bound to get here!

 

Tonight I have had Scentsy - Camu Camu going. I think it is a passsionfruit blend.

SPRING--Happy first day of Spring everyone--I think it is going to be a lovely day here and after all the storming yesterday I am more than ready. To start the day I have on Mainstays Vanilla and Yankee Vanilla Cupcake. I am going to make chili in a bit so wanted something neutral for scent. Later on I'll switch to YC Lilac Blossoms in honor of the day. Have a good one everybody.

Good morning!

 

I'm melting Haley's "Apple Jack and Peel" in the livingroom. Offseason, but that's what I'm in the mood for. I love her version- even more than the Claire Burke candle that is is supposed to be imitating! Sometimes I guess the original isn't always the best?

Good morn, everyone. Today I'm melting: Island Fiesta by LOL

Citrus & Herb by Candle Dippers.

[sweet&spiceygrl 1]

Debra - hope the sniffles is as far as that goes 4 U and you're feeling better today.

 

I'm melting/burning Apple Cinnamon this morning, a Cake Candle votive & tart and a SB candle in the same scent. It's smelling very applelicious in here!

[Juletones 1]

This morning smells really good.

 

CYS - Pear Blossoms

LSC - Honey Vanilla Love Dust

Everyday whims- Orange Chiffon cake- in kitchen/family room (smells wonderful)

 

Doe, EW's orange chiffon cake is amazing, and that's the version that made me sit up and take notice of orange chiffon scents everywhere. Like the big bag of brittle I just bought from SH. It's a love affair for sure.

 

Today it's SH Snow Angels. I was rummaging around for another Christmas/wintry scent and found this one.

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

Cleaning house today and burning LOL Oatmeal Blueberry Muffin. Oh My!!! SOOOOO delish!! I don't see it on the scent list anymore.

[PuppyLove 1]

Hi all!

 

Hope everyone's Sunday is going well.

 

Puppy - what's that smell like? Do you smell the tea or is this more of a 'spa' scent?

Sweet, LSC White Tea & Ginger is a little hard to describe. It's soothing and yummy, but not a spa scent to my nose. It smells like tea, but not exactly black tea. It's the milder white tea. It has a teeny bit of herbal/floral in it, but then, that's kinda what tea is, isn't it? There's just a hint of ginger, so it's not a heavy spicy scent. I'm not very helpful, I know. Sorry! I dislike almost all florals but I love this! Unusual, "soft" and gently comforting (yet it's a big thrower, wow!) and it lasts and lasts and lasts. Definite reorder for me! Give it a try and let me know your thoughts, buddy!

 

Okay, so I've been spending a ton of time with my new friend, Ebay. I've gotten obsessed with votive holders lately and Ebay is good to know because she has a bunch of them for sale in all price ranges. I've had many cups of coffee with her the past couple days but our interaction hasn't been totally smooth. I tried to win a couple auctions but lost, and I was starting to think the friendship might not work out. today I won! I paid such a puny price for a brand new in the box Tiffany & Co. lead crystal votive holder! Oooo! Aahhh GORGEOUS!

 

Melting CCCC Home Spun Sugar, perfection in wax!

 

Gail, who definitely needs to buy more votives!

[MaggieMae 3]

Gail ~ Congrats on your ebay win! It feels good doesn't it?

 

Lady~ I just picked up some Soft Blanket tarts at YC yesterday...it smells so beautiful!

 

Debra~ Feel better soon! The sniffies are a pain!

 

Melting:

Pumpkin Pancakes from Sugar & Spice...delicious!

Secret Recipe from Can-Do....a fav!!!

Soft Blanket from YC upstairs

 

Have a great Sunday! I'm off to continue cleaning the windows...oh joy.

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

CFTKR Tangerine Mint melting in bedroom, PS from CFTKR in bathroom and a CBV candle in the computer room, Chai Tea scent.

 

Hope everyone is well. Crazy times here, but hope to be back here and to myself again soon.

[Candlefind Placeholder 3]

Gail--congrats on the win--enjoy your new holder.

 

 

 

I went a bit crazy this afternoon and have candles lit all over--all Yankee--Lemon Zest--Vanilla Cupcake, Easter Egg Hunt, Sweet Strawberry and Tropical Fruit. It isn't even a cloudy day but I felt like fruits so I grabbed my lighter and started in. Hope you all are having a great first day of Spring!

[debra99 2]

Sweet and Maggie, thanks for the sniffle condolences.

 

Gail - be sure and do the pOrn thing with your Ebay winnings! It is really easy to get hooked to that site, isn't it? In fact, that is how I first bought tarts! Vendor websites were not as common, and I spent a small fortune on that site.

 

Today I am melting Eucalyptus from YC.

[candlefan 0]

Hi everyone! I've got CCCC Baton Rouge going upstairs, and it sure smells good.

 

I heard that this scent is also called French Vanilla Oak by other vendors, but I can't see calling it that. To me, it smells really warm and spicey rather than vanilla'y and woody.

[Guest]

What a beautiful spring day today!!

I am melting LSC Blackberry Plum and burning a YC Vanilla Icing votive.

Picked the votive up at Target today and was wondering...has anyone tried the large YC candles at Target? Is the throw good?

 

Have a wonderful day!

CFTKR Birthday Cake melting in bedroom, Mexican Fried Ice Cream from CFTKR in living room, and CCS Bird of Paradise in the bathroom....house smells A-mazing!

[sweet&spiceygrl 1]

Trep - luv your Easter egg avatar! :wub: I think you're a little excited spring is finally here? Do you think it's time for me to take the snowmen off my fireplace mantle?

 

Puppy - WTG on your ebay win! It takes a little trial & error, but with a couple of wins under your belt.....look out fellow bidders!

 

I'm ending the day with Cozy Cottage's Panna Cotta.

 

Sweet dreams all -

Hi All-

 

Very busy weekend. All the kids were home. They just left. DD will go back to school in the morning. It was my niece's Sweet 16 party last night. Not much time for burning or melting at all.

 

I just started melting CFTKR Sweet Vanilla Zucchini Bread. Not much of anything yet but I love all Carol's Zucchini Breads.

 

Have a great night all!!!

[Guest]

I am disappointed! No throw whatsoever from my YC Vanilla Icing votive that I picked up today at Target. Darn! I have it right under my nose and have to lean over and burn my nose hairs to get a whiff.

 

Just added McCall's Apricot Preserves candle and still melting LSC Blackberry Plum tart. Of course the AP candle is discontinued and is my favorite candle ever!

Finishing out the evening with a lovely

Hawaiian Breeze from Haley's.

aaaahhhhhh, I can hear the rope of the hammock creak as it gently sways in the aromatic breeze.

Just hope a gust of wind doesn't flip me out!
