Mmmmmmm. Thanks for the new thread. I get to post that I GOT MY BOX today. :)

Thank you Cindy!!! O mi gosh, the fragrances of the three soy candles you sent are delightful.

The first one is called Witches Whimsey - it had crumbly cream colored wax on top and blue below. Court and I laughed I said either there's a bug in there eating it, or the heat got to it or something. Cindy said it was supposed to be bubbles on my cauldron! It's the one I decided to light for the table as we sat for dinner, and it is the most unusual subtle pleasant scent we've had in the house for a long time. ;)

The next one has an cream colored layer on top with an orange/caramel color at the bottom. Cindy said it is called Twicks & Tweats? And Court loves candy corn so he has taken that candle up to his room to experiment with. Will let you know what it tastes like. ooops - smells like. :)

The third candle has a pretty scent - a girl's scent - this pink candle will go in my room and I will test it out soon. I regret to say that it did not make it in one piece. The pic shows it looks like a tall glass with hand painted flowers. The pieces were loose and I thought there was a glass lid for the candle. It turned out to be the base. In the picture below (4th) I have the stem parts on top of eachother. I could probably glue that part, but the back of the candle is broken, and I'd be afraid to burn it like that.

I will be able to break the candle out and put it in one of my hurricane lamps. I know it makes everyone a little sad/mad when that happens, but the good news is I can still use!

AND Cindy included the cutest earrings for Halloween. I have been looking for a pin just like that Cindy - the silhouette of a witch on a broom. They're perfect!

Thank you thank you thank you, Cindy. We love candles. Especially the ones you sent!

Oh my those are beautiful. Cindy makes the best candles.

(Cindy) Auburn, CA(Zone 10a)

Oh I am so sorry it got broke. Amanda if the upper part is not broken to bad you can set it in a pan of water and melt it down then repour into another container. Darn I knew I should of wrapped it better. I even wrote on the box for them to NOT play football with the box!!!!! And the scent is Vanilla Flowers.

Greensboro, NC(Zone 7b)

It smells so delicious I could eat it. But no, the glass is definitely beyond repair. I often put fragile things inside a box inside the box to prevent breakage. Especially with heavy things mixed with fragile things!

Ask Kim_M what my package looked like when it arrived with 6'+ IRON bird candle holder inside!

Ha Ha ha !

We do love the scents Cindy. I had no idea you made them. I might have to steal your recipe.

LOL recipe for soy candles:

soy wax
scent
container
wick

Soy candles are so easy to make, plus they are healthier to burn, 95% less soot, supports the American farmers, etc.............
