I sent/received my Yankee Candle Exchange!

I sent mine out last Friday. I know it shouldn't have taken a week to arrive. Hope nothing happened to it.

I got mine yesterday after work, but wasn't able to post until now! Thanks go to Ugadog99 aka Melanie. She sent me a medium storm watch jar candle--one of my favorite scents. I think I will burn it right now! Thanks, Mel....

Hello Y'all,
I am so sorry for being so far behind in this exchange. I had total knee replacement on my left knee 3 weeks ago and I'm still not with it.

I have received both my exchanges. The 1st package was opened up by my daughter and the information has been lost. I received a box of wonderful tarts. All different scents. I have searched the house over for the card....but.....no where to be found. Merriweather please help me and let my sender know. It was a wonderful surprise and I love all the scents that she gave me.

I received my second package today from Jana (Gemmie214). I opened this one myself. I got a beautiful sunflower tart burner and plate and some sunflower tarts and tealights. Also, a lovely handmade card. Jana, how did you know that sunflowers are my favorite flower of all. Thank you so much.

Both my exchanges went out today in the mail so they should be arriving sometime later this week or the first of next week.

Glad yours have arrived Susie...and I hope you are doing better.

Pm on way with sender info.

And that makes us down to 6 still to be received.

 

[gemmie214]

Susie, I am so glad it arrived safely. I am thrilled you love sunflowers and I hope they brighten up your recovery. Hope you feel better soon

Just found out from Merriweather that my other exchange was from WendyZ. I want to personally THANK YOU for all the tarts. All the scents were wonderful. Now my problem is which one do I use first. Thank you again so very much.

Hey Nancy.....I loved my gift I got in the mail today!!!! You are too sweet to send me the honeydew melon car air freshener and the wonderful DIS pin! I've always wanted one of those! Wow, I got a gift and not even from the person that had my name...how special does that make me feel!!!!

Thanks again!
Michelle

 

[Meriweather]

Glad it arrived. Hope you get a chance to wear the button soon!

Bumping this so it doesn't get lost.

Oh my goodness…great things do come to those who wait!! I received my package today from Margie (sorry I don't know your DIS name, but I am working on it) and what a wonderful surprise it was to open the package. Margie, you went well above and beyond and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything, you really outdid yourself. I received 8 votives, over a dozen tarts, a sachet, a box of tea lights, a floral tart burner and a votive holder that has apples and grapes on it, which will go beautifully with my new kitchen theme. There is a huge variety of scents including ocean water, green grass, honeydew melon, citrus spice, seaside holiday, pineapple paradise, sage and citrus, cranberry chutney, fresh peach, macintosh, spiced pear, blueberry muffin, cucumber and cantaloupe, and clean cotton. At least 7 of these are new to me and from just smelling the packages I think I will have some new favorites.

THANK YOU MARGIE, I love everything!

 

[crazyme5kids]

Thank goodness it made it to Italy!!!!! I am a little paranoid after the recipie and mug exchange that things will take forever or not arrive at all, LOL. Enjoy!

 

[tiggerlover]

Your identity has been revealed.

Thank you Margie, aka, crazyme5kids!

Now the hard part will be deciding which to burn first!

 

[DISNEYFANRI]

I just wanted to note that this is my 5th exchange and each one is better than the one before!! You guys are a graet bunch....
Thanks so much to Meriweather for puting together such a great exchange!!

Now.....I can only wonder.....what will be next????

Paula

 

[Meriweather]

You're welcome.
I love my exchanges!!

A little bird told me that there may be an exchange starting at the end of the month or early April (not done by me )

And...it's open. Start something.
I think we have none going after this is all done........for awhile!
I have a VERY busy April....so I'll see what's going on after that.

 

[paras4ri]

I figured this is the group who would know!

Does anyone have some tricks to share on how to get votive out of a holder once it's burned as far as it can go????

I'm lighting one that I got from Kirby right now - Cucumber & Cantaloupe!!!

 

[Meriweather]

I just did this last night
I see it's about had it and dump whatever is left out while still liquid. The wick base comes out too. Worked well.

Any other ideas? I'm open to them.
