Massive Yankee Candle 2016 Haul

What a nice surprise it was for us all to learn that YC was starting their semi-annual sale two weeks early! I had not mentally prepared for this. As a result, I ended up making not 1, but 3 SAS purchases in the matter of one day. While I clearly have a serious problem, I… Read more »

Midnight Blue Citrus Candle Review

Midnight Blue Citrus BBW Candle Review

When I discovered that several White Barn exclusives were released at Bath and Body Works nation wide, I rushed to my local store. I smelled all the most-talked about scents and really wasn’t impressed. As I was walking out of the store a gorgeous teal jar caught my eye – Midnight Blue Citrus. It was love upon… Read more »

May 2016 Candle Empties

Each year, May signifies the start of allergy season for me. This also means I usually go on a melting hiatus since I can hardly smell anything. With this in mind, I chose to burn through any half-used candles or scents I wasn’t too fond of this past month. Winter (3-wick candle) – I burned through… Read more »

For the past 7 months, I’ve heard of these infamous glitches that Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works occasionally have.

BBW $11 Spring Candle Haul

Bath & Body Works $11 Candle Haul

Bath & Body Works has been functioning a bit out of whack this year, to put it lightly. Their collections have been both off-season and boring. Mix that with their oddly higher priced sales and it’s just pushing me away. They did randomly have an $11 candle sale online last weekend, most likely to get rid of… Read more »

Goose Creek Haul & First Impressions

Goose Creek Haul & First Impressions

Can you believe that I’d never heard of Goose Creek until this past month? I heard rave reviews from multiple people in the wax community about one particular scent, so naturally I had to have it. This prompted my first GC haul which consisted of 10 wax melts that were luckily on sale. Below are my initial reactions… Read more »

Candle Melting 101

If you have never melted a candle, rather than burning it, you are missing out! Melting is not only hassle-free but comes with some serious benefits. I purchased my candle warmer in March and since then it has changed my life! (My super important wax-loving life that is.) There are different types of candle warmers; some… Read more »

March 2016 Candle Empties

March 2016 Candle Empties

Hey there, melters! March, to me, means I can finally start burning fresh and fruity fragrances. This past month I also realized I needed to start burning through my stash quicker than I have in the past. Low and behold my first empties post! Let’s get started and first talk about 3-wick candles. Pomegranate Prosecco… Read more »

Michelle’s Candle Favorites

Melting with Michelle - Candle Favorites

Hello and welcome to my new blog, Melting with Michelle! My candle obsession began back in 2012 when I moved into my first apartment. I started out storing my purchases in a small cubby but by 2014, I transitioned into four bins organized by seasons. Fast forward to 2016 and I’ve been forced to move my candle… Read more »
