Similar to tarts, you can break off a cube or two and put this in your melter or warmer. Some people prefer to melt their wax rather than burn it, especially in electric warmers, as you can turn it on and not worry about an open flame. Abscents has clamshells available…

March Book of the Month

March 13, 2013.Reading time 3 minutes.

We’re almost midway through the month and I just finished my February book of the month this past Sunday! Oopsies! Even though it was a quick read and I finished the majority of it in two days, my schedule at the end of the month allowed little focus time on my book. It was a […]

Okay, it’s time to check in! I was on a roll for a little while, even attempting writing everyday but got way behind. Over the last few weeks it’s seems as though I’ve gotten busier with my candles, which is great! After Valentine’s Day, I had to prep for a little “smelling party’ at my […]

Last Saturday, my in laws invited us out to a local winery for wine tasting. Lucky us, they were also offering wine tasting paired with chocolate!

You know the best part of waking up? Folgers in my cup. Coffee + sugar + cream = one happy me in the morning. It’s the first thing I do every day and definitely the thing I look forward to most in the morning! Can you tell I’m not a morning person? This Virginia is […]

Getting Healthy: Nutribullet Style

February 10, 2013.Reading time 3 minutes.

A few weeks ago, late at night right before bedtime, one of those attention grabbing infomercials came on. Sprawled out in front of the host (and creator of the gadget) was an array of veggies and fruit. He said what was in front of him wasn’t a “blender” but an “extractor” of nutrition, calling it […]
