Candle Warmer Sale, Scentsy, and Volcano

Whew, what a title. :)

I’m posting this because I just bought this candle warmer online at Colonial Candle. Today until April 23, use coupon code FRIENDS20 for 20% off + free shipping!

Green Lattice Wax Melter

Sounds like an paid advertisement but it’s not. :)  I’ve been eyeing this warmer for a while, signed up for Colonial Candle’s email list (to add to all that junk mail I already get), and waited for the sale that makes the junk mail worth it. :)  I’m so cheap sometimes.

Isn’t it pretty, though? (Prettier with 20% off and free shipping!) I got it because I’ve gotten into Scentsy lately.  I’ve got a friend who sells it, and I’ve been looking into a non-candle version of Anthropologie’s amazing Volcano scent.  Oh, Volcano, how I love you.

I know I’m just one among many who is  obsessed with Volcano, and a couple of amazing friends have given me the wonderful candles as gifts.  But sometimes, I don’t want to light it (dogs/knowing I’ll forget to blow it out); and I’m a nut and don’t want to put it on a warmer because I think it will “waste” it. :)

 

Capri Blue Volcano from Anthropologie

(I’ve been using this super cute bowl on one of those cheap candle warmers…but the bowl doesn’t quite fit…so I ordered the cute melter shown above!)

So far, I’ve been mixing 1 square each of Scenty’s Camu Camu, Kahiko Hula, and Lucky in Love to make my Volcano “equivalent.” The Scentsy smells are a little sweeter than the crisp, clean Volcano, but close enough to make me happy on days when I don’t want to light the candle.  Coming home to a wonderful-smelling house is so nice.  (If I come up with a different combination, I’ll be sure to let you know!)

UPDATE! :) I added a square of Sunkissed Citrus to my above mix and it smells AMAZING!  It adds that bit of crisp-ness I was hoping for…Yum :)

So that was a long post to say, “I found a sale! Here’s what I bought!” :) Are you doing any shopping this Friday night?

  1. I've got a Scentsy burner in my foyer, so the house smells nice when people walk in and not like the litter boxes that sometimes smell like cat. My go to scents are Clean Breeze and Enliven.
    P.S. The bowl on the cheap burner is really super cute!

    3. Ah yes! My friend mentioned that to me, and I honestly hadn't even thought of that perk...I just wanted to smell everything! :) If I had a party, would you be interested in joining? ;)

  2. Oh Volcano... my favorite! However, it definitely always gives me a flashback to working at Anthro.

    1. I hope you like it! Tell me what you think. It's not perfect, but I think it gives me a similar feeling. :)
