The Bowl Candle - Two Gifts In One......

One has to love the practicality

and the beauty 

of a bowl candle.

This orange clove soy candle

is poured into a vintage glass 

bowl with legs.

Burning this candle until about a half inch

remains and then removing the wicks

allows one to wash the bowl in the 

dishwasher or hot soapy water 

for a wonderful keepsake.

This week I was at one of our favorite 

department stores when I found these 

bowls on final clearance.

What were originally $9.99 

each were just $1.99 each.

I knew this was an unusual opportunity

because normally a beautiful container 

like this is just too costly to 

then add soy and pass on the 

total cost....

but at $1.99 I could just charge

for the candle.

The bowl is free to you!

Love it....

Autumn Magic

 Autumn Magic is a very unusual fragrance.

It is, however, one that I love.

It reminds me of a delightful idea for a man's cologne.

Spicy and fresh.

Bllueberry Muffin

 I know those are not blueberries on the 

side of this bowl but this was a great 

excuse to use such a fun and popular fragrance!

Orange Clove

 Perfect for Fall.

The orange scent is more prominent when the candle

is cool, while the clove is 

more prominent when it

is lit.

Country Bumpkin

A light fragrance that makes me feel as if I have

just walked into a quaint country store.

Apples and spice with a hint of potpourri.

If you haven't tried a bowl candle yet...

there is still time.

So much beauty.

And it lasts.

All of these candles are now available

in my Etsy Shop.

Introducing a Country Bumpkin!

A month or two ago I ordered some new fragrance oils.

One of these just wasn't all that impressive in the bottle

so I wasn't in a hurry to make it up.

However, I may coin a new phrase

about not judging an oil by its......not sure what would

go here...perhaps first impression?

Anyway, when I added this oil to the warm soy wax

it released the full intensity and sweetness of its fragrance.

They call it Country Bumpkin but I think it could

just as easily be called The Country Store.

You smell apples, nutmeg, sweet potatoes, cinnamon

and more....as if you were standing in an old

fashioned country store with button bins,

apples, jars and bolts of fabric all around.

It is yummy, I tell you.

I took four tea lights to my friend,
Mrs. Rabe.

She is my "nose" on all things spicy.

She adored them!!

I love it when my friends are so 

supportive of my creative side.

Thanks, Mrs. Rabe.

She even put a link to my Etsy shop 

on her sidebar this week.

This is what she had to say about
the Country Bumpkin scent:

"Okay people! These are the best smelling candles! 

You know that great smell in country stores? 

This is it! I'm hoarding mine for now!"

I'll make you this offer....
