Welcome to my new home!

Yay you've found me!  

So, today on my break in between classes, I went on a shopping trip with my mom.  First, we went to Pier 1 and my creative wheels started turning.  It's too bad I haven't gotten paid yet, cause I would have done some major damage today!  But none-the-less, I controlled myself.  Later we went to Lowes so she could buy some paint.  She's getting her house ready so it can be sold :D!!  This is a good GREAT thing!  So while she was getting her paint ready, I went over to the paint samples...heaven :).  Whilst I was there :) (big grin) an idea hit.  So let me go back a little bit.  Lately I've been looking online to find colors for my soon to be candles and I've gotten a little frustrated.  Mainly because there aren't any candle supply shops around here, except Hobby Lobby and Michael's.  I love those stores, but they don't have what I'm looking for.  Anyhoo, my online quest was leaving me frustrated.   But while we were at Lowes, that frustration melted away once I started looking at the paint samples.  That's when it hit me to get samples of colors I would want to use for my candles.  So once I do get the candle dye...then I will be able to match it to the color I want better, than trying to experiment with a little bottle and nothing to go by :D (I'm sure that was a run-on, but grammar isn't my strong forte tonight. Ha).

I wanted to share this lovely idea of mine with anyone who is in the same boat as myself.  Those who are wanting to start, but aren't sure where to begin...or those who are getting the supplies together, but may need that extra oomph.  So happy crafting everyone! Til next time :).

 P.S. if anyone has a reliable online shop where they get their supplies, please feel free to comment below! I look forward to hearing from you all.
