New candles listed

Since the last time I posted anything, I have listed some new candles at my shop. I have listed some lavender rose scented candles.   This candle has a strong lavender and rose scent.  Very nice, sweet and relaxing. 




 I have added some lemon citronella eucalyptus scented candles.   The citronella and eucalyptus are known bug repellents. 















I have even added a variety of tarts/melts.  These are very highly scented also.

 These tarts/melts are lilac and carnation scented.  They are very strong, sassy and sweet.  Your house will fill with these great scents.












If you don't like flowery scented tarts/melts, what about peanut butter?
These peanut butter tarts are very strong.  They smell just like when you first open a jar of peanut butter.  The color is a tan/light tan color.  Now you can have all the peanut butter you want without the calories.
















I even have peppermint scented tarts/melts.  This is a very unique scent.  It is a nice refreshing scent also.


I also have whipped topping candles.    The top of these candles have whipped wax with a cinnamon scent.  The bottom part of the candle is a nice yellow with a strong lemon scent.  Almost like fresh backed lemon cupcakes.

















Check out some of the other new items in my artfire shop.  You won't be disappointed.

Citronella candles

I just made some citronella candles. They are in the molds and are cooling down. They should be ready to remove from the molds tomorrow. These candles are actually a combination of lemon, citronella and eucalyptus scents. The citronella and eucalyptus scents are good at repelling bugs/mosquitoes. I added the lemon to balance out the citronella scent. The citronella scent is a very strong scent. To make these candles, I combined orange and black together. I wanted to have the black color to attract the bugs/mosquitoes and the orange to try to soften the black a little, but keep the dark color.

I have done some researching and mosquitoes are attracted to dark colors and that is probably the main reason for the dark color.  Instead of the mosquitoes attacking people, they will be attracted to the dark color of the candle. 

These candles come in round, square and octagon shapes.  They would be good to have on hand during the coming summer months.

new items

I have listed some new items in my bythesehands shop.  Ok, they really aren't new.  They are listed on my artfire shop also.  I figured the more places my items are listed, the better my chances of selling.  I hope this is a good idea.

I have also listed some new items in my artfire shop.  I have also updated my banner.  I need to work on the avatar or have it worked on. 

Here are some of the items I have listed in my shop on artfire.
