Smells Great!!!!

Good morning. I have tried something new...yep something else to try and find time to do. LOL. This is Hot Apple Pie in a Jar. OMG...they smell so good. Right now I have Country Bumpkin "cooking". I made them a beautiful fall reddy color. I am trying to get ready for the Apple Fest this weekend. "Brain" Tarts. Don't ask cause I don't know. How in the world these turned out looking like this I will never know, but they smell good...this I call Vanilla Apple Cinnamon, I have finally figured out a way to use all those bits and pieces of leftover oils...mix'em and hope for the best!! I added a touch of cinnamon to the top for a little decor.
These are Farmhouse "Dots", so called this because they are smaller than the average melt.
I did these in Orange Clove and Apple Cinnamon.
I am still working on some more, mint green "Balsam Fir" and the "Perfect" fall scent which is a secret...only if I can get the oil measurements correct!!!! I know I wrote them down last year, but you know what they say...your mind is the first to go...I just have to find my notes today.
Now ya know what I have been doin'...whatcha been doin'? Are you getting all the fall decorating done, preparing for a Halloween Bash, or just taking a breather and enjoying what life has to offer this time of year?
We have the Rug "Hookers" party tomorrow. I am not dressing up although I think Lori is!!
So we shall be heading to Charlottesville with some green, purple, or orange food in toe...hey I did not make the rules here!!! I am off to the store today to try and find something to take. I have always wanted to make the Cat Literbox Cake, but I don't have time to do that, so hopefully Wally World will have something...anything at this point!.
O.K. friends, the wax is calling and so is my husband. I shall talk to you later then.
Have a beautiful Tuesday and as always...
Wishing you Blessings.
Robin

  3. Mmmmmm......sounds good to me!
    I have been tossing old tarts and candle stubs into a coffee can for months. Soon as the weather cools off a bit, I am going to melt them all together for a grunge mix to dip new candles into. I've never done it but I know it can be messy. I have also saved coffee grounds from the pot, dries them and mixed with cinnamon to roll them in. It is all an experiment for me! Now I know that can't be bad! After all, as primitives artisans ( LOL ), we save and use everything!
    Have fun with the hookers!
