Daily wax melts September 17th 2012

-Front Porch Peppermint Ice Cream in the first floor in my 20W hot plate warmer. This was a beautiful sweet minty scent with a decent scent throw and good staying power. Really liked that one!

-Sugar & Spice Gourmet In Mango Peach Salsa in my tealight warmer in the kitchen. This was just friggin awesome! Like one of the best tarts ever! It was super strong, sweet and fruity and it lasted all day long. Really exceptional performance!

-Country Home Scent Autumn Leaves in my 24W hot plate melter in the living room. Albeit this didn't have a super strong scent throw the scent was there and it seemed to linger all day long. This was an appley slightly spicy scent like lots of those autumn scents out there.

Oh and in my light bulb warmer in the. bedroom I melted 2 cubes of FussAssMcGee Nighty Night which had an awesome throw and smelled very nicely of lavender. Lasted all day into the night, too! I hated FussAssMcGee in the beginning but their tarts just need curing time and either a 24W hot plate or 25W light bulb!

Daily wax melts September 16th 2012

Showing 4 melts instead of 3 today =) as I said before I always melt in my bedroom but used to do so only at night until recently when I got my rabbit bulb warmers to replace my tealight melter. Now I like to start melting in the morning =)

-Country Home Scent Snuggle Baby in my 25W bulb warmer in the bedroom. This was super strong. I think it's a mix of Pink Sugar and some kinda baby powder. It was too powdery and perfumey for my taste but it was a good bedroom scent. In my bulb warmer this survived all day long!

-A Breath of French Air Fresh Linen (2 tarts) in my 20W warmer in the first floor. This was such an awesome sweet laundry scent and it had a great throw and lasting power! This was different from other laundry scents as it had a pleasant sweet note to it. Loved it!

-Shayz Scentz Pink Danish (2 tarts) in a 25W bulb warmer in my kitchen. This had absolutely zero throw but it might have been the bulb warmer, I think Shayz throw better on a hot plate. Off cold throw it was pretty much only pink sugar.

-Pics, Petals & Scents Iced Lemon Cookie in my 24W hot plate warmer. This smelled wonderful, a sweet lemon bakery scent. Throw was about medium and lasting power was mediocre (4 hrs maybe). I think I'll let my other tarts from this vendor cure a bit longer.

Kristin's Kandles wood wick candles haul

With autumn starting to make its appearance I decided to pick up a few candles with wooden wicks as they produce a nice crackling sound just like a small fireplace.
I picked up two from Kristin's Kandles and 3 from Tiffany (to be posted about soon). i lit the Apples 'n Oak already and I am getting a nice even pool of wax and a beautiful crackling sound however the scent throw is very light. I have to admit that the sound of the candle is more important than the scent in this case!
Each cost me $10 and shipping was super quick!

Shayz Scentz haul

I never ordered from Shayz before so I took advantage of a sale where I got free shipping, 15% off and some scent shots as extras which I though was an awesome deal.
My order shipped within 10-14 days if I remember correctly and came nicely wrapped and in perfect condition.
I ordered 14 six-packs of flutes melts and some others in cute shapes (chocolate bars, little bread braids). I also got 4 sinus relief singles as the flu season is starting now.
Overall I am having mixed results with Shayz but I think I like the majority of what I melted so far.
