Haley's Heavenly Scents HAAUUUULLLL!!!

K's Kreations Sticky Zucchini Bread - This one smells pretty good and is good to mix with things!!
K's Kreations Dreamy Zucchini- I don't smell as much tangerine as I would like, but it's a great blend!!
K's Kreations Pistachio Pudding Cake - I Love This Scent!  It's sooo nice and pretty smelling!! Yumm!!!


Sugar and Spice Pistachio Coconut Fluff- A favorite!! Need to reorder in brittle when she opens back up for fall!
Look at that oil!!  

Angel Made Scents Monkey Mouth- A reversion of Monkey Farts.  VERY Banana-y.  It's good, but it needs some good ZB to tone down the heavy banana!
Angel Made Scents Pink Sugar/Vanilla/Iced Tea/Sugar Cookie (MY BLEND!) - I know, I'm biased, I mixed this for a contest, and I got a six pack of it.  But it's great, and it's lasted three days in the bedroom!! I'm very happy with my blend!!

Now here is the one and only Haley's Heavenly Scents ORDER!! I got it last night 5/30/13, but was so tired, I fell asleep before I could post anything!! So here's the pictures!!

Cups are: Fluffy Pink Monkeys, Granma's Creamy Coconut Zucchini, Whipped Vanilla Bean Noel, Raspberry Zinger, Pink Blueberry Satsuma, Butt Naked, Strawberry Dream Cake, Granma's Vanilla Bean Noel, Divine Cake, Pink Chiffon (This one is a straight up dupe and it's great!), Ma Petite Cheri, Pink Noel Cake Batter, Pink Blackberry Butter Jam Cookies, Granma's Strawberry, Cotton Candy Frosting, Granma's Cake Batter Zucchini, Granma's Pink Zucchini, and Pink Poundcake.

K's Kreations

I got my K's Kreations order!!

To be honest, I got my K's Kreations order on Friday.  But wanted to give a little of space for the Leneas/AMS post!!

I got a bag of blingin' Rainbow Brittle in Pistachio Pudding Cake and Dreamy Zucchini
I got Sniffin' Sticks in Island Bliss and Southern Sunshine
I got singles in Baked Wildberry Bread, Candied Raspberry Bliss, Pure Bliss, Sea Island Strawberries,  Sticky Zucchini Bread, Sunny Bliss, Tropical Bliss Spritzer, Vanilla Butter Fudge, and Wild Pink Cookie Bread

I got freebies in Fruitilicious, Zucchini Bread, and Lemon Zucchini Cake!!


Everything smells good on cold sniff!! Especially the Southern Sunshine and the Pistachio Pudding Cake!! I'm a bit hesitant on cold sniff about the Zucchini and Bliss blends!  But I know Zucchini is a totally different story once melted, and I'm thinking the Bliss blends will be the same!! I'm loving everything I got!! Haven't melted anything yet (waiting for it to cure!) so I will report once I do melt some!! I'm leaning towards a few pieces of Dreamy Zucchini!! LOVE Tangerine during the summer!! Yay!! 




Melted:

SMT Pink Sugar Butter Cookie VBN- YUM!
HHS Pink Fluffy Toasted Marshmallow- YUM!
Shayz Scentz Pink Serendipity- Oh yes!
Shayz Scentz Pink Grapefruit- It's a 6/10.  I do like it, but it's not super strong.  It's good to mix with other things though!
Shayz Scentz Warm Pink Vanilla Sugar- YUM!
Crabby Candle- Pink Sugar
Dutch Candle Company- Toasted Marshmallow- I melted Crabby Pink Sugar with the DCC Toasted Marshmallow.  It was OK, not as strong as I would have liked.  I melted it in the bedroom.

I am waiting for HHS and BSF.  Should be getting HHS this week and one of a few BSF Packages this week!! SOOOO excited!!

Lenea's Wax Creations and Angel Made Scents

Hi everyone!!

Well I have been lucky enough to have THREE orders come in the last three days!! It's SOOO nice! It's like Christmas in May!

First, I have Lenea's Wax Creations!  I ordered a $3 cookie in Coconut Dreams while she was having her free shipping with no minimum sale.  I didn't have alot of money then, or else I would have ordered and tried more!  I got my order on Wednesday.  I got my cookie which is pictured below.  It is such a nice thick pretty cookie and Coconut Dreams smells really good!!! Then I got THREE samples!  For such a small order, I wasn't expecting any!!  Got a scent-satchet in Sparkling Pomegranate, a cube in Fabulous Fudge, and a scallop in Grape!  Everything smells so great!! Pictures below!


Look at how big this cookie is!! It's as big as half my finger!!






Then I got an order from Angel Made Scents!  I had entered a contest in a facebook group called What Smells So Good where different vendors were giving away different things such as samplers, coupons, 4packs, etc etc.  I was lucky enough to acquire a free shipping coupon from AMS!  So I went ahead and bought a "No Strings Attached Sampler"


Scents are Sparkling Pink Sugar, Teaberry, Strawberry Bread, Lavender & Coconut Milk, Malibu Heat, Sweet Pea & vanilla, Brownie Batter, Downhome Country, Grapefruit Vanilla, Pistachio Coconut Fluff, Summer Boardwalk, Angelfood Cake, Fresh Rain Snuggle, Malibu Rum Cake, Tropical Coconut, Secret Recipe, Rice Flower & Sea Salt, Zucchini Bread, Creamy Coconut, Stuffed French Toast.  

My favorites are Sparkling Pink Sugar, Lavender & Coconut Milk, Malibu Heat, and Pistachio Coconut Fluff! 

I also got a freebie in Monkey Mouth!! Loved the packaging and can't wait to try the scents after curing!!

Be on the lookout for K's Kreations, HHS, and BSF!

Lazy but Back!


Hey everyone!! Sorry for the hiatus, been super lazy lately! Lol!

BSF Pink Grapefruit
BSF Serendipity

I haven't been a fan of GKC's scentshots, with the foil.  Never got any throw.  But the candles are good once you let them cure!!
All of these other vendors/scents I'd reorder!! Fantastic and all favorites!

I have officially retired all of my cinnamons, peppermints, and super sweet/fall/winter scents, to the closet.  I need room on my bookshelf for NEW scents!! And NEW ORDERS!

No?  I didn't mention my NEW orders??... that maybe PERHAPS I have FOUR on the way this week!?!?

YIPPEE!!!!

OK Let me elaborate:  I am waiting (hoping) that my order from HHS will be shipping this early this week.  Here's a list for those who didn't see it last post!

Cups: Granma's VBN ZB

And my two free six packs were Granma's Serendipity + Strawberry Dream Cake and Pink Sugar/Monkey Farts/Granma's ZB

I'm hoping this order ships out with some tomorrow!! Hoping for lots of CNS!

Then I made an itty bitty teeny tiny order from Lenea's Wax Creations. A cookie shaped melt in Coconut Dreams.  That should be shipping out Monday 5/19/13

Next, I ordered from K's Kreations!  I have been hearing LOTS of hype from this company, and figured, what the heck?  I'd give K's a shot!  I have been hearing about Dreamy Zucchini (Tangerine and Creamy Zucchini bread) and Southern Sunshine!  Here's what I ordered!

Blingin' Rainbow Brittle Dreamy Zucchini
Blingin' Rainbow Brittle Pistachio Pudding Cake
Scalloped Tarts
Baked Wildberry Bread
Candied Raspberry Bliss
Pure Bliss
Sea Island Strawberries
Sticky Zucchini Bread
Sunny Bliss
Tropical Bliss Spritzer
Vanilla Butter Fudge
Wild Pink Cookie Bread
Sniffin' Stix
Island Bliss
Southern Sunshine

I was hoping to recreate Pistachio Coconut Fluff by combining Pistachio Pudding Cake/Coconut Cream Pie/Toasted Marshmallow.  I think it's going to be fabulous!  My order should be shipping out on Wednesday at the latest!

Then last but not least, Angel Made Scents.  I had won a blend contest (was one out of seven blending finalists).  We each got a six pack of our scent and a single of the other scents to vote for scents to fit the names of "Sinful" and "Heavenly".  Mine was Pink Sugar/Vanilla/IceTea/Sugar Cookie!  

Here's a picture of the winnings!!


I also got a sampler, the No Strings Attached Sampler!! I got 21 different scents with my free shipping code that I won over at What Smells So Good Facebook group!  Yay!

These scents sound so good!  This should be shipping out tomorrow as well!




I have also, as I'm reading posts on my various wax groups, been seeing alot of people getting overwhelmed in their collections!  Lol I'm so stingy with my wax, and then with wax I don't particularly like, I melt all at one time.  I have one of those ghetto warmers (a candle warmer with a Slatkin candle jar cleaned out as a bowl.  $5, you just can't beat it!) and I can fit a TON of wax in that thing!  I just would hate to be the girl who's known to destash bad wax or crappy wax.  So I just melt it all.  I may get together a bunch of wax if I have some that I don't particularly care for, and just offer it free and the buyer only pay shipping.

I personally can never get enough wax.  I melt as much as I buy and I love it that way <3 I'll never have a huge gigantic collection, but I love to have choices!!  I am buying a little more now to make up for the super heat-wave that is summer, but I will have most of it melted by the time it gets cooler again!

I love all of the creativity that goes into making blends and molds for different forms of wax!  I have begun to love blending, and if I may say so myself, have been getting pretty good at it!

I'm gonna scoop scoop scoop!

Good morning my fellow wax-heads!

Attention!  I have gotten my very FIRST Scoopable!  It is a BeauxSavonsFrais Pink Noel Whiff Whip!

Look at it, it's gorgeous!!








I scooped two level spoonfuls of the VBN and put it in my 24watt warmer.  Ten minutes later, it was wafting out of mybedroom, in my living room.  Smells soooo fantastic!! 

I would also like to address the consistency of this scoopable/Whiff Whip.  I tried sticking my finger in it, since I've heard it's supposed to be soft.  I haven't tried any other scoopables, and didn't know what the soft wax was supposed to feel like, or how soft it was to be.  Well nothing happened when I stuck my finger in it, except I felt all the oiliness that makes strong smelling wax!

So then, I got one of my kitchen spoons, and went ahead and started to scoop. It was a tad tougher than butter, but just a tad!! It wasn't messy, came off pretty easy, and I would definitely reorder one of these again!  

They are $15.49 for 16oz ... and when she opens RTS, I'm getting me a few!! :D :D

Here are a few ideas for some custom ones I'm wanting:

Lavender Vanilla/Pink Sugar/Cake Batter Ice Cream

Pink Sugar/Zucchini Bread

Serendipity/Cotton Candy Frosting/Pink Sugar

VBN/Toasted Marshmallow

My Melting Diary: 

OLC Toasted Marshmallow- nice and good marshmallow scent!
HHS Toasted Monster Jam- Definite Reorder!
HHS Pink Fluffy Toasted Marshmallow- bought it in a six pack last time, and it's fantastic!!
HHS Pink Serendipity+Pink VSCDB- FANTASTIC blend!! Seriously, if you like Pink Sugar, Serendipity, and Vanilla Sugar Cookie Dough Bread, get it in a blend!  I was hesitant at first, but it's sooooooooo sooooo good!! The new VSCDB is absolutely breath-takingly fantastic!!
HHS Pink Sweet Tooth- It's good, but all I got was Pink Sugar.  And of course, I love Pink Sugar, but I have three bags already lol.
Bella's Pink Serendipity Noel- Of course, it's fantastic, and super strong!! I've seen some people say that they didn't get a good throw from Bella's Bark, but I have to respectfully disagree!! My bark is nice and strong!! I am going to be making a bigger order this next bark sale down the road!!
OLC Apple Fritters & Twisted Tea- I combined these two and I'm glad I did!! This was really nice,  the tea scent kinda canceled out most of the apple, but just enough to add a nice note to the Tea!! It is a nice tea scent, I  recommend it to anyone!!

I am waiting on my BSF order and my JLCCW order, which I do not expect until maybe July or August.  I ordered about ten-fifteen minutes after HHS opened, so I should be one of the first!! Which, I won't lie, is AWESOME!  And Country Mama's Candles TAT stated 3-5 days!  Happy happy wax time!!

Will be posting pictures when I get em'!

I have also been seeing TONS of Rosegirl's pictures!! Love seeing those!  Vicarious living!

I am thinking next I want to try K's Kreations.  Not sure how big of an order I want to do, but there are some blends that sound amazing!  I am going to try and hold off ordering for a good part of the summer. Lol, not sure how long my willpower will last me... but who knows?  I may be surprised!! lol!

Any last orders you all are placing before the weather heats up?  Any go-to summer scents?
