There's nothing as wonderful as the scent of Christmas filling your home. By now you know we love to add scented wax melts to our Christmas subscription box! Many already own a wax warmer and some do not... but don't fret! We've got some ingenious hacks to enjoy those melts (sans the burner) so read on....
A wax melt is a cube of wax made from soy, paraffin or beeswax. The wax is melted down and mixed with fragrance or essential oils in a ration of about 10% fragrance to wax. The wax melt is then melted on a warmer, which releases the fragrance. Wax melts come in a variety of of different styles, colors and scents (the Christmas scents are our favorites of course)!
Wax melts have many different name including:
Melts, Tarts, Clamshells, Snapbars and Hearts.
Stove method: Warm a bit of water in a medium sized pot and then place a smaller pot within the water and place your wax in the smaller pan. This is a great way to enjoy the aroma without a burner or warmer.
Microwave method: Make your own burner by placing your wax beads, cubes into a microwave safe bowl and heat in the microwave for 10 seconds (more or less depending on your microwave strength). Once it's done give your wax a stir and heat for another 10 seconds. Repeat this process until your wax has melted to a honey like consistency.
Oven method: Use a old pan or grab one of the cheap from your local Dollar Store and place wax cubes in the pan, set your oven on a low temp until wax is melted then turn off the oven. The aroma will quickly fill your home. Here's the direct link to the warmer used in our photo!

We're bringing you ALL the love this January with Cocoa with Claus!
When we planned this box, we wanted to acknowledge that January can be a bit of a let down once the holiday parties and excitement is over. Seasonal depression is very REAL so we wanted this box to fun, cozy and comforting to our fans. Make a point of practicing self-care as part of your New Year celebration!
We knew we wanted a 2023 journal to provoke thoughts of Christmas, ideas and recipes! What worked well for you last year and what didn't? I love to look back on Christmas's past to see what décor I used, and how I want to recycle that again. You can find our gold embossed 2023 journal HERE

Stove method: Warm a small bit of water in a medium-sized pot, and then place a smaller pot within the water and place your wax in the smaller pan. This is a great way to enjoy the aroma without a burner or warmer still.
