I'd been on the hunt for Baby, It's Cold Outside (pretty much just Pink Peppermint) and Lemon Noel, and she agreed to make both for me. This was back in 2012. Wow, so long ago now!<br /><br />~DebDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658958620972494748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-77651698061592157052018-02-06T20:12:02.140-05:002018-02-06T20:12:02.140-05:00You totally have this!

I know you are one strong lady. <br /><br />Pam did tell me that she will be opening back up for an RTS and then again to use up any oils she has remaining. So maybe a few more openings in the cards?

Glad you both love it!

I love that you are savoring your wax. <3<br /><br />I am bummed too. I am happy they are going on to new things or trying to slow down and take care of themselves. It is a very personal and important decision, but they will be missed. I hope Pam does her RTS restock of her remaining scents.

I will talk more about him on the next post. <br /><br />I think it is still worthwhile to blog the scents of retired vendors in the case that sometimes they open back up down the road (LSC did this) and also some people buy destashes of their scents and are curious about the performance and scent.<br /><br />Six months!! Nice! My low buy did well, for me, this month. Next month I am reducing it a touch more and then the following too until I get down to one order and then evaluate where I am at that time.

I loved that each scent shot shape came decorated individually and was packed in a pouch. It was the cutest thing ever. My first Etsy vendor was Scent Appeal and I loved her wax too. <br /><br />Ordering was so much easier wasn't it? <br /><br />Amber has some great bakery scents now. You should check it out Deb.

I melted Patchouli Mint you gifted me and oh my wow!! I had to place an order for more earthy goodness blends. I've been a slow turtle and melting every scent, even though I'm super excited to warm up each one.. I just want to really enjoy the process and not melt through too quickly in excitement. ;) <br />I am beyond bummed about Bohemienne Life and LSC going out. I totally understand and support both ladies decisions, but a selfish part of me wants to shop, buy and enjoy their lovely goodies for years and years. I am super grateful for even trying anything from both those vendors. <3 Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05456321651492337696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-58269906593576653802018-02-03T09:05:57.759-05:002018-02-03T09:05:57.759-05:0010 years is an incredible milestone, one of the lo...10 years is an incredible milestone, one of the longest I've heard. Congrats to Amber! That owl is perfect, hope she melts up nicely. Sort of off-topic, but I saw an owl up-close last month and it made my day!<br />After the announcement of some wax shop closures, I started working on a retired wax blog postand melting through my stash of vendors no longer around, it seems there's quite a bit of moving on lately. I'll be interested to see what this year brings. I'll also be taking note of all your fave TDC blends in oh, say, 6 months when I'm buying wax again!

You could barely find melts in retail stores at the time but the indie world of wax melts was already exploding. CHS was one of the very first I'd tried, via Etsy, and immediately became my favorite.<br /><br />What I miss more than any particular vendor is the ease of ordering that we had back then.<br /><br />I haven't ordered from TDC in forever. Perhaps I'll give the site a browse today, but if I remember correctly their scent list leans towards the types of scents I don't get into.<br /><br />~DebDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658958620972494748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-81983833769975915842018-02-02T09:32:16.128-05:002018-02-02T09:32:16.128-05:00I love ordering from Amber!

Plus, she rocks those hippie/earthy scents! I definitely order from her the most, but then I also melt her wax the most, too. That owl is adorable! I'd have a hard time melting him ;).<br />I'm sad to hear about Kyme, too.
