I made some Margaritas!! Only not the kind you drink, but the kind you can burn!!
That's right, these are actually soy wax candles in a margarita glass, that when the candle is completely burned down, you can wash the remaining wax out of the glass with hot soapy water and re-use the glass!! How cool!
But in the meantime, you can enjoy the lovely scent of the candle. You don't even have to burn it to have the scent in the air. My soy wax candles are so strong that you can just leave them on the counter or table, and they will scent the air around them.
This yummy one is a strawberry margarita, and I have done the wax on the top to look like shaved ice. It is a lot of work, but well worth it when you get a finished product like this.
I have also been making tarts or melts as some places in the country call them, and they are always a good seller.
Okay, back to the grind for me!!
Take care,
Kat

I have been making candles like crazy!~!
I have had lots of orders to keep me busy :) and I have a big craft show coming up in November that I have to get ready for!
At this show that I have been doing for years, we set up a booth, and sell candles of all shapes and scents, and also some of my other craft items, including polymer clay items, and my jewelry.
My kitchen smells absolutely divine right now, because I have been making my new favorite scented candles ~ Japanese Cherry Blossom, and boy, does it smell wonderful!
I have made lots of tarts or melts too! Those are the kind you use in burners and have no wick. Many people like them for the safety factor and because you get the strong scent without an open flame. They usually sell really well at the fair.
I will keep you posted on my progress for the show! Wish me luck~!
