Too much too much .. .

Lately I have had much too much going on, I actually kind of forgot about this blog.  Good thing I don't really  have any readers!  So what have I been up to?  Well making candles for starters.  I started making candles again so my house smells all kinds of awesome.  I use soy wax so they burn clean like partylite candles and did I mention they smell amazing?? Here's a pic you can find them all at Crochet By Mel I use cotton core wicks so they burn all the way and at the right temperature for soy.  These particular ones in this picture I believe are Gardenia scented.  You'll find I do a lot of floral and fruity scents since those are my favorites, but if there's a particular kind you enjoy I'd be more than happy to do a custom listing for you.  Also another new thing in my shop is Free shipping for all my USA customers.  Etsy has been playing around with hiding shipping costs so I decided to cut them off at the knee since most my customers are from the states anyways. 

I love making votive's and tea lights because with votive candles you can reuse the same holder over and over, and with tea lights I do re use my tea light cups to make new tea lights.  I have been all about the recycling lately. 

Something else that's new going on is my new shop Puzzled By a Name my mom loves to puzzle and she's got all these beautiful puzzles some of them are 1000 pieces and they make great wall murals and they were just sitting there staring at me so I asked her and she let me have them.  There's a lot of Thomas Kinkade and a few pretty beachy ones.  I'd put them on my walls but my wall space is pretty limited.  If you'd like a puzzle matted and or framed first please message me I can make it happen :) And yeah we don't care if you want to tell everyone your smart and did it yourself, be our guest!

 Lastly but not leastly my adorable daughter just had her last day of kinder garden and I am super looking forward to spending my summer with my angels.  I see lots of beach days in our future and we got water park tickets so hopefully we will have some fun there and I won't loose anyone.  Lately the blonde one has been running off I am about to be one of those mom's with a kid on a leash again. . .yes again. . . you try being a single mom with 3.  Don't let the smile fool you  he's trouble.  The weather is looking like its going to be park weather this week so that will be super fun.  Everything I do is for them.  Don't forget when you buy handmade, and when you buy from small businesses your supporting families.  Buy American. Anyways thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoyed the show. . .
