  • A quick tour of my Fall/Autumn and Halloween candles. There is still a lot I need in my collection. But, not a bad start for only collecting for 3 years. Also a peek into the backstory on why I started collecting candles.
    I am not endorsed or affiliated with any of the companies I have reviewed except my own. Although, I would love free candles :) I purchased everything reviewed in this video.

    Thank you for sharing your story with us. There are many of us that struggle with similar issues and it's a comfort to know that we are not alone. I can totally relate with the comfort that candles can bring us. And the wax melts that you have created on your website sound absolutely amazing! I think you have created every single scent that anyone could possibly want for Halloween or Fall. 🎃😀 You are truly a God send. 😘👍🏻

      Wow thank you!!!! It's not about the money because I haven't made any yet lol 😆 I just love Halloween related scents and wanted some available for anyone with similar tastes. 🎃 🎃 🎃

    Thanks for sharing! We find watching candle content comforting. One of us has become disabled so we don’t get out except for Dr visits. Keep on pouring wax and talking about candles and spooky stuff, it helps others and we hope you continue to find comfort in wax!
    Your collection tour was great! You have been busy the last few years! What a comprehensive reference base of fragrance combos!!
    All the best!

    I'm so sorry to hear about your past (the lost of your parents and your past addiction).
    It's beautiful how candles helped you with the struggles you had and the anxiety. Congrats on the sobriety!
    Starting a youtube channel is not easy. Putting yourself out there is hard.
    After having my kids I dealt with depression. I decided to start a channel (and do something I wanted to do for years) instead of taking pills.
    So I understand.
    I'm glad you find a way to express your true self. I love you personality, I think you are awesome!
    Your collection is a testimony to your courage and the beautiful person you are.

    This was sooooo good! Loved seeing your amazing collection, thank you for doing this! And wow, I can relate to everything you said. Halloween and fall scents really are such a comfort and the first thing I go to when I feel my anxiety spiraling out of control - it helps! I have my little sanctuary of olfactory bliss and it's made a big difference in my life. And I have you to thank for some of the best scents I have! 🖤🎃🖤

      It's crazy how you say, "I have to move these to the front..." Exactly what I do with my shelf with each season. "Trick or Treat and Witches' Cauldron...". Okay, I officially love you. I think you share my Halloween insanity. Can you move to Idaho please? I am originally from California but wound up here somehow. We would just mesh beautifully.

Buffy, Supernatural, Tales From the Crypt, Vampire Diaries, The Originals, and every nostalgic movie from my youth... Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Pumpkinhead, Silver Bullet, The Howling, Fright Night, Creepshow... Come on! I already know I love you so you just need to get over here... 😁👍🏻😘🎃

    Thank you for sharing your story. I too was an alcoholic and would binge every single weekend. Got tired of feeling like shit the next day and the older I got the longer the recovery period was. Went to rehab in '16 & sober ever since. Also lost both my parent early on. You're truly an inspiration to a lot of people. Love your collection BTW.

    Great collection! Saw a lot of stuff from smaller companies i never heard of that looked really cool! DId you ever get to try out absinthe minded wicks back in the day? They had some crazy good halloween and spooky candles, some of my favs of all time from them, wish they would come back since i only have a quarter of each of my favs left that ill never get to burn. Some crazy pulls in this collection too, the old kringle halloween jars are so cool, i need to get one of those old witches cauldron jars! 🎃

And my condolences for your loss.

      @srainey7946 It's a lot more brighter than you would think with those scent notes. Almost leans toward a cologne. I agree, the notes sound perfect, but on cold it goes a whole different direction. 🤷‍♂️

      @@SouthofSanityCandles Hmm... I may skip it then. I was expecting more of the patchouli to come through with kind of a graveyard type scent. It costs a lot to get these candles that aren't sold anymore and it's tough when you can't smell them first. Thank you! 😁
