Am currently burning True Grace 'library', a mossy, burnt wood candle that smells like reading a leather bound book in a wing back chair next to an open fire. Probably too deep a scent for most at this time of year, but with the windows open and this burning it's a beautifully subtle scent
I have this candle, though not lit yet. My husband bought it as a present for me when I quit my library job to be a full time jewellery person.Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

Love that description of the candle. I too have a candle problem and have two large bags full of tarts, samplers and jars. At the moment I am burning Fireside Treats but it isn't my favourite, not very strong but when I do get a whiff it is nice.
Why thank you! My friend bought me bomb cosmetics little hotties, and a fabulously large oil burner to go with them, so I shall be moving on to my old tarts (as it were) fairly soon.I have this candle, though not lit yet. My husband bought it as a present for me when I quit my library job to be a full time jewellery person.
I had not realised you were a full time jewellery person, I'm very intrigued!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Oh loads...as you can see...In use items are in red.
Woot woot, finally someone who has (had) a bigger stash list than me!:rotfl:0 -
First UU of the month: facial cleansing wipes. These are a cupboard basic, so I arleady have another pack.0

I depotted some lipsticks into a pill dispenser thing today, hopefully it'll encourage me to use them up.Savings £8,865.22 £/15,000 Aiming to save enough for a house deposit.0

Thanks for the new thread.
UU
Tri enzyme resurfacing mask - WBA love this.
Cotton Wool pads - WBA - have replaced with the same.
Wisdom step by step mouthwash 6+ - bought for DD but she thought it was awful - I used it up but I would have to agree with her so WNBA
7 days Elemis bliss capsules - well im not 10 years younger but my skin has improved. I will probably repurchase at some point when I ebay some unused items to offset the price.
Sachet rimmel stay matte foundation - WNBA The ivory was a good match to my skin but I hated this. It felt very heavy and greasy - like wearing a mask. To be fair my skin remained looking matte but it felt as if my make up was sliding off my face it also didnt help that it settled in every line. Overall not a great look.
Already have epic ins - some items were for a monthly restock of basics.
4 x cotton wool pads
3 x sure spray deo - DH's HG and 1/2 price
1 x sure max protection deo - my HG and had a voucher.
2 x boots smile toothpaste for DD
4 x colgate max fresh night toothpaste - I am finally on my last tube of the toothpaste I hate so have restocked on one I like.
Maybelline soft lips lip balm - DD loses lots of these during the school year.
2 x L'oreal eye make up remover - didnt have the Garnier one I usually buy available so bought this on offer as an alternative.
3 x mouthwash - none in cupboard
Everpure shampoo & conditioner - on last one.
3 x right guard shower gel - on a positive it was cheap and we get through loads. No excuse as this is one of my problem areas and we have plenty in stash!No more buying toiletries0 -
Bad news peeps
The £5 no7 voucher is back as of tomorrow
Be strong and resist0
