About a year ago I discovered at Hallmark this amazing scent. Every time I would go in I would always spritz a little on my wrist, not ready to make the commitment of purchasing a bottle for myself. So after admiring it all this time, this was the only thing I asked my husband to […]
A year ago when I decided to be a candle maker, I knew from the very beginning this wasn’t just a hobby. It would be a full blown business. I began doing research on how the big companies got their start, and I soon found Mike Kittredge’s name. He had started Yankee Candle and got […]
With good reason, it’s been a while since this girl has gone shopping or enjoyed a Sunday out. Today, I decided to discard my pajamas, actually curl my hair, and wear my red lipstick and go to the local town center. It was time to get out and enjoy myself, even with it flurrying all […]
My closet has been neglected, I can’t even tell you how long! Especially over the Holiday season as I worked two jobs, it was the last thing on my mind to tidy up, letting clothes pile where they will, scarves in a heap on the floor, complete disarray everywhere. Of course it bothered me to […]
You may have noticed I have a few different wordpress accounts. And you may have noticed I reblog from them time to time, such as Abscents, dedicated to my candle making (I wanted to try to keep it a separate blog if I ever wanted to make it more professional looking). So if you ever […]
I just decided I was going to dive in and open my Etsy shop on a “made to order” basis. I’ll be adding more fragrances as we go along, and will work up to add a fun fancy label once we really get the ball rolling! For now, I’m just going to do this as […]

I literally don’t know anyone personally who does this (unless you’re keeping it a secret), although it seems like “the norm” in other […]
If you follow a few of my blogs, you’ll know that I’m getting things ready to launch my own homemade soy candles collection. And since I’ll be in the wax business, I’ve been craving candles like crazy! Which is exactly what I ended up getting for my birthday from my husband and my mom…plus I […]
After raving about how awesome Diamond Candles are and after so many people around me getting one but me, I was wishing and hoping for one for my birthday after dropping some pretty serious and blatant hints. I had actually figured out my husband had gotten me one when he accidentally shared the code for […]
Have you guys heard of this? These are earth friendly soy-based candles that give you a little prize in return – there’s a ring in every candle! This is better than a Cracker Jack box! The rings value at $10, $100, $1000, and $5000. Imagine getting a $5000 ring at the cost of $24.95…Insane! I just […]
