I have been running non-stop lately. I have a trip with the Mister scheduled to Sunriver Resort next month. It's a service weekend for his job. Beautiful spot up north of Bend, Oregon. I will definitely post pictures. I made 24 candles on Monday and with in an hour of posting, all of them had sold. I guess it's time to put in bigger orders. I also seem to have a pretty high demand for my Bombdiggety Balm.
Life is getting exciting!
Welcome to my adventures in travel, brilliant ideas and craft projects (including bloopers and successes). Things that make me enjoy life just a little more than I already do.

Hello, It's Me
I've ignored you for such a long time. I am truly sorry.
Well I can't find a "recipe" to make candles of one color that melt another BUT I'm thinking if I make a pillar candle and paint it with a non toxic paint, that may work.
I also went back to the drawing board on my lip balms. I am really not happy with the consistency. I still think it is entirely too hard and waxy to use. I have someone who wants to order some for stocking stuffers. I also have several scents on the way for my candles. Pumpkin pie spice, blueberry, bluebonnet and the smell of Christmas. I ran out of supplies and am so looking forward to getting back to my little corner of happiness.

Challenge Accepted
So my son has thrown down the gauntlet. He wants me to make a candle that is one color and as it melts it has a different color inside. Then my mom joined the challenge. Add spiders or something and make holiday themed candles. I guess it's time to start doing some homework...

Another Order On The Way
I gave a lot of my first batch of candles away. I ordered 10 lbs of soy and am waiting for it to come in so I can make more. I took the remainder of what I had to work with me and sold them all. They were a huge hit! I already have orders for more. I need to sell enough to order a lot more wax and scents and I have my eye on a SUH-WEET Nikon camera.

Morning Comes Too Early
I've said it so many times. I am so not a morning person. I have to be up at 4:15 a.m. to be to work at 6 a.m. for a task that needs to be done. Any volunteers to go to work for me tomorrow? or maybe even move 6 a.m to around noon?
