Wishing it was Fall Haul

Wishing it was Fall Haul - Melting with Michelle

Hey, fellow melters! I hope the weather has been better where you live lately; in RI it’s been almost 100 degrees with extremely high humidity. It’s safe to say that I’m craving the cooler Fall days at this point. (FYI Dunkin Donuts is releasing their pumpkin spice drinks & treats today so we are one step closer to… Read more »

Where did July go?! While this entire year seems to be moving at warp speed, this past month really went by in the blink of an eye. Rhode Island was abnormally hot these past few weeks, but I was still able to go through my entire burn list and then some. Here is my complete list… 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 »

April 2016 Candle Empties

Hey, melters! April was the month of constant burning for me as you can tell by the empties photo.

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 »
