samandkennasmom Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hello all!I'm trying to come up with a primitive line of candles. I'm only having a hard time because I want to try and mix some of my own scents but I'm so not good at that. I should have just about every kind you could think of. Some of my names I came up with are Sweet Simplicity, Primitive Cellar, Prairie Crumble Cake, Olde Barn Blessings, Olde Sugar Bucket, Days of Olde, Cranberries from the Bog....I was gonna do about 12 different scents...anyone have any thoughts of different scents to mix together? I'm so not creative!!! Thankyou so much for any help!HuGs!Michele:yay: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samandkennasmom Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 yes...kimmeroo, that's exactly what i want to do! I've never heard of sg either. I have about 30 names i came up with, don't have to use the barn one....i can't member who it was that wrote some down but that's just what i meant! i think i thought up some really good names but just don't know what scents to put in them....so any combinations ya's could think of would be awesome for me, maybe if i give ya a few more of the names i thought of.... sweet gardens of 1800's, Harvest Gatherings, Fireplace Hearth, Early Homestead....Thanks so much, I sure appreciate any help!!Hugs!Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifelace Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Hi! I don't have any suggestions but I wanted to say I really like your candle names. Very cute and different! I would be super interested to smell them all (as opposed to plain names like say...Lilac). LOLMelany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samandkennasmom Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 Thanks Lifelace!!I think I have thought of some of the neatest names, definetly not blowing my own horn cause I never like to take credit for anything I make or do, If someone said, wow that looks like crap, I'd be way better with that than if they said that's so cool. I haven't decided if I'm gonna use rusty cans or I have a plan for jars too. I made some wax dipped books the other night and they turned out good too. Put some sweet annie on some and bittersweet on others. I'm ready for any season but this crappy winter!!!!!! Well, didn't mean to write a book, sorry!!! I should really sell some of all this stuff I make!! Heheheheh!HuGs!Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Hey on that spring garden one, add some rain.and some pumpkin on the harvest gatherings.Fireplace hearth thingy -- fireplace (or some cozy smoky scent and wildflowers with sage or an herbal tone to it. Go easy on the fireplace type scent you use though. It will overpower everything and anything lol.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billie Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Sorry, I misunderstood the question. Southern Gardens Scent was posting scent mixing ideas, which is not what you wanted. I didn't have the right abbreviation either. :lipsrseal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
