  1. OMG I would kill for that much room and a day with out my husband or kids interupting me in a room like that. I make my in my kitchen(in a mobile home) so that would be a huge difference for me lol. I like your avatar too. can you share some of the rainbow candles?

  2. sorry I forgot to include particulars.

    its 4630 with 60-44-18 wick.

    the colors are black, brown and rust, all peak dye chips

    the bottom layer was a happy mistake, I wanted it to be black, it started out as a grayish purple and once it cured it went to a denim blue. which I like even better!

    it smells amazing, I have had 6 people try to steal it from my living room, the smell reminds me of working cattle at my aunts ranch here in the Colorado Rockies. I'm gonna try making a smaller(16 oz.) and see how is goes

  3. I have cursed batches too, I swear that my 11 month old has a sixth sense when I'm about to start making candles. All I have to do is touch my pour pot and Charlotte will wake from a dead sleep and cry and scream her heart out until someone(usually me) picks her up.

    "I think I would have burnt cold cereal..."- I had a day like that this last week, all 4 of my kids were up in the middle of the night and didn't go back to sleep till almost dawn, I didn't get back to sleep and my day started craptastic and just got worse. I love the way you put that.

    NEW FRAGRANCES – Five Instant Classics to Warm Up a Fall Day

    Availability: July 2011

    "Nature's Paintbrush" – A blend of citrus, sandalwood, amber and musk, this woodsy fragrance is splashed with a hint of spice to evoke the rich colors of the outdoors.

    "Over the River" – A fresh, nature-inspired scent that features relaxing fragrance notes of mandarin, soft oakmoss, soothing lavender and calming sandalwood.

    "Kitchen Spice" – Hints of warm and exotic spice notes including almond, nutmeg, cinnamon and cardamom, plus a vibrant rustic red color, pay tribute to this fall's trends in the kitchen.

    "Pumpkin Buttercream" – This creamy combination of two classics, Buttercream and Spiced Pumpkin, gives a more delectable, indulgent and gourmet approach to pumpkin.

    "Vanilla Satin" – A smooth fragrance of floral notes with rich vanilla, it plays to the blush trends on fashion runways while the neutral tone perfectly complements the bright colors of the fall season

  5. I have googled until I am blue in the face to no avail, my mother in law wont shut up *dead horse*about finding this until I do, so Im on a mission*drunken posting* lol.

    this is what the yankee site says about the fragrance:

    The crisp, naturally fresh scent of gleaming, snow-covered pines with hints of patchouli and fruit

    Any suggestions?, has anyone successfully blended a similar?

    I think Im gonna have to bite the bullet and actually buy one so I can at least try to mix something like it.

  6. We use alot of the usps 7x7x6 (I think) to ship most of our retail orders in ...I would have to check with my shipping dept to be sure BUT that ones seems to range around $7.50 (give or take some) to ship and will fit more then one item also.

    Are these boxes your talking about, I pay about the same. give or take a dollar.

  7. Im so sorry this happened to you, its really scary that these thing are happening more and more everyday to places that we think are safe. I was just telling my husband that before we know it they are going to figure out how to hack the bank and drain those dry. scares the crap out of me!

  8. I was going to suggest the pie idea also

    blue-blue or blackberry

    white- vanilla for vanilla ice cream

    red strawberry rhubarb

    to the prairies (wild flowers? grass?)

    there is a blue bonnet FO that would be good for prairie
