Daphne's Divine Round Robin

Hi everyone!!


OK so I have some really great news!!

I am moving!! Not far, but I am moving!! Both my husband and I have been sharing a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment, only because there were no one bedroom apartments when we got our own place!  Now we can get a one bedroom and have less rent for the space we ACTUALLY USE!  (That second bedroom was a place for our stuff that we had hurried and packed when we moved the first time, and we had no need for it).  For the past week, we have been packing our stuff and going through everything, and you will never BELIEVE how much stuff we had that we didn't want/need anymore!

So lots of trash bags later and very little boxes, we realized that there's not a huge amount of stuff (like I had thought) that we are moving over to the new apartment.  Soo... what comes with little rent, means more money.  Period.  Phew!

AND TAXES!! We will be getting our refund back in the next few weeks! SO YAY!!!

Back to your current programming!

Back a few weeks ago, Daphne's Divine owner Lindsey Davis contacted me, along with other bloggers, vloggers, and vendors to participate in one of two Round Robins!  Usually, I don't do Round Robins with all of the issues that surround them most of the time, however, I am very comfortable with the group of ladies that were participating, so I figured, why not?  I am never successful with openings because openings never coincide when I have money.  So thanks to Sunnee  at Fragrance Obsessed, a few months ago, I had my first Daphne's Divine clamshell: Pink Serendipity BooBerry! And ever since, I've been wanting more!

So here is the box when I opened it!!

Pretty!!!!

So it took me two hours to go through the whole box (Large Flat Rate) with Barry!  And here's what I took out!!

Daphne's Divine TakeOuts: Serendipity Vanilla Butter Fudge, Island Mango Rock Candy, Cake Batter FlapJacks, Alien Bites, Serendipity Cotton Candy Taffy, Strawberry Vanilla Butter Fudge, Boo Berry Pops, and Hot Pink Lime Serendipity

Non Daphne's Take Outs: Two Bundt Cakes of CFTKR Berry Sorbet, scent shot of UTC Blueberry Vanilla, Starlit Wildberry Scone , RG Strawberry Serendipity, Rainbow Melts Pink Peppermint and FP Sugar Cookie Donuts



Then my Put-Backs!  
LCP 5 sticks of "Mix Ur Scent" in Nana's Sugar Cookie, Singles in Sweet Honeydew, Pink Coconut Cake, Orange Sherbert, Pistachio Coconut Fluff, and Scoopable Sample of Watermelon Ice Cream Bread. Vintage Chic Scents: Single Rose in Aunt Bee and War of the Worlds, Butterfly Lane scallop in Pizzelle, Rosegirls: Square in Spiced Apples and Peaches, Ava's Country Cupboard: 3oz Sliceable Tart in Spiced Apples and Peaches, CBV: Scentshot in Marshmallow Fireside, LSC: (repackaged) scentshot in Strawberry Mallow Bread, Crosscreek: Scallop in Frosty the Snowman, K's Kreations: Scallop in Orange Sunshine, Pics Petals and Scents: 1 Single in Jammin' Sugar Cookie, HHS: 4 Pieces of Brittle in Granma's Blackberry Butter Jam Cookies, 4 Prim Words in Toasted Bubble Gum Cotton Candy, 3 Prim Words in Lemon Drop Ice Cream Scoop Dough Bread, and 2 Prim Words in Vanilla Nutmeg

The box before I have to send it out!  Nice, full, and good stuff!

And you won't believe me, but I haven't even been melting much lately!! Since Barry and I got sick, since we couldn't smell them anyway, I figured there was no point in melting (and I didn't have any Sinus Relief Tarts, which I will be getting soon!).  And ever since, I wanted to make sure I had enough good tarts to put in this Round Robin!  I have been melting a little though!!

Shayz Scentz Pink Toastie Marshmallow
Front Porch Apricot Vanilla Butter Fudge
Starlit Wildberry Scone
Slatkin Vanilla Cinnamon
The Bathing Garden Pistachio Pudding Cake
Kimrie Anne's Pink Lavender Vanilla Butter Fudge
Slatkin Flirt
Slatkin French Garden
Slatkin Citrus Flower

Anyhow!  I ordered from The Bathing Garden during her last restock and I am really excited about her Alice in Wonderland themed one that she plans to have next!  Anyone have any scents that they'd recommend that everyone needs to try?? Sound off below!  

I hope everyone has a great week!!

  1. I hope the move is going/went smoothly! "Love grows best in little houses" lol ;-) what a great RR to be in. You picked some great smellies and put some great ones back. It sounds like fun. Sunnee is just the best. <3 I am excited about the Alice restock too. I am hopeless, here I was supposed to be cutting back do I can save and the wax keeps flowing! Maybe hubby will get it for my Mother's Day gift? Lol

    2. We're hoping to move at the end of the month (That's the plan anyway!) But it looks like it's going to go alot smoother than I had originally thought, so that's a HUGE relief!! I love that quote too!! And think it's so true! Cozy, cute and comfortable, all the way! Sunnee is the best (Hiii Sunnee!!!!!) I am excited about the Alice restock too! I'm going to order a few "out of my comfort zone" scents because I want to branch out! Lol and I think wax is a perfectly acceptable gift for Mother's Day!!

      I loved your TBG order BTW!! The scents look fabulous!

    1. I'm excited too!! I think there will be ALOT of great wax in there when you get it!! :D I was so excited to be part of it too!! I haven't done one in a long long time!!

      I will! Promise! It won't be much different than my old address, just the number part before the street!

      Hope everything is going well with you Sunnee!!

  3. Good luck with your move! Getting rid of stuff is so freeing--I've been trying very hard to declutter and not accumulate junk like I did in the past (except wax... it's perfectly ok to accumulate wax ;) )

    1. Lol But of course!! It's always OK to accumulate wax!! I have dreams of having my own wax room, or atleast a nice size walk-in closet!! That would be fabulous!!

      And it is so freeing!! I realized we had WAY less stuff stuff that we had to actually move than I had originally thought. I haven't moved yet (at the end of February/beginning of March). But atleast moving has helped me part with things that I know that I'm not going to use or have laying around doing nothing.
