It's Another Groundhog Day!

Almost a year (October 2018) since my last blog post and I am still testing waxes to find one that is just as good or better than my original wax (bangs head against the wall). This is beyond frustrating and sad. Who would have thought that I would still be trying to figure this out? I certainly didn't! The last wax and testing had some promising results, so now I hold my breath and do another test to see how it goes. And I do another test that I change up the formula to see if it comes out any better if I add the scent before the color or vise versa. Or I change the type of wick, or maybe it's the scent, the variations can drive you crazy.

I have thought about giving up on many occasions but I keep reminding myself of that cute little store that I want to own one day and I keep pushing. I'm not a quitter and I am a whole lot of stubborn, however, I am getting frustrated with the struggle figuring out a quality wax with a fabulous scent throw.

I know how difficult it is to own a small business, I have worked side by side with friends and seen how exhausting and frustrating it can be but I have also seen how rewarding it can be. And I know it is worth it. Because if I don't try then I will never know just how fabulous it will feel to have that freedom; this is the thought that I hold onto.

Thank you for your patience with staying with this page through the century of wax testing that has gone on so far and I hope that it will soon be over and I can start back up making candles, body butters and a whole lot of magick. Until then I have put up a "Under Construction" sign on my website and hopefully soon I will have new candles and a new look to share with you all. Love you all! Thank you for listening to my rant.
