I have been trying to get my new products in my store but I keep getting an error message that says timed out. I figured out what was wrong.
My new camera is saving my photos HUGE so I have to find an easy way to resize them.
Here are a few of my new goodies.
( Since closing the ebay store things have been so relaxing and I have time to make things in bulk!)
I've been making lots of Big quart size jar candles and some of them are in antique ball jars!
The scents above are..
Peppermint, Banana nut bread chocolate chip, Grape and Lemon Pound Cake! Heavenly.
I am asking 14.99 for the quart sizes in the old jars.
These are Blueberry Muffin and Chocolate chip in 18 oz Merchantile jars!
All come with some kind of hang tag and I am asking 12.99 for these.
Wanna know how I got my prices?? We ate at Bob Evans the other day and I checked out their candles lol! I am a dollar cheaper lol!
This is a Strawberry scented candle with a glass top and also 12.99.
I also have lots of 16 oz candles and little 5 oz candles!
16 oz 12.99 & 5 oz are only 5.75!
Scents are Grape, Apple Pie, Lemon Pound cake, Blueberry Muffin, Banana nut bread with chocolate chips, Cherry N Chestnuts and chocolate covered cherry, peppermint & coffee.
These are the ones I have ready but you can check out the scent list at my store and request
your fave!
I also have TONS of hand rolled cinnabuns done and now they have realistic looking walnuts!
The scent is stronger and they are larger!
( This is a picture of my muffin candle because I havent taken new photos of my BUNS yet ..HEH! The icing and walnuts are very similar!)
The hand rolled cinnabuns are 5.75 each and the muffins the same price!
This will all be on my store when I get my photos fixed..ugh!
One more item...
My hand made salt dough ornaments are 2.50 for a regular and 4.50 for a hand painted Annie.
The regular shapes are Gingerbreadmen, Prim star, Prim Heart, Salt box houses, Round with gingerbread punch out inside and coming are sheep, & flower annies.
If you would like a squirrel Angel they are 3.00!
Angel Annies are 4.75!
I hand paint these so no 2 are alike and the faces may very a bit! I like to mess with cute eyes lol!
If you like I can put your CHILDS face on a salt dough ornament!
Email me the photo, I size it, print it and make it!
I made some for my kids..I made them angels lol YAH RIGHT!
( I need to retake the pic it turned out blurry grrr!)
You can also get a bag of 3 dough Cinnabuns with extra little buns and or
cookies for 6.50!
I think that is it for now so please watch for this stuff in my store soon or if you would like something just email me at CarmensCountryCandles@hotmail.com!
~~~~MINDLESS JABBER!!!!~~~
Ok...
YOU GUYS...
This morning I went outside to take some pictures of my yard and flowers..
I discovered this!!!
SOMETHING is eating my strawberries as soon as they grow!!
I was investigating the half eaten strawberry when I saw the pine needles on the ground MOVE!
It was like there was a snake slithering through them ..under them but It couldnt have been a snake because whatever it was saw me...and shot under a bush.
It has to be really small...WHAT IS IT???
Not a bug...
Too small for a mole...
Any ideas?? It looked freaky! LIke A tiny version of the Movie Tremors LOL!
I went back later to look and it was back! Is this what is eating my strawberries??
Then I get this freaky looking bird in the back yard!
This is not a good picture but I have no idea what this guy is!
What the heck is that?? LOL!
THEN!!!......
I take a picture of my garden and it looks like I have an orb lol!
In the large photo it really shows up! Did I dig my garden over an ancient Indiana Burial ground?? LOL!
Hey I realized the camera my hubby got me takes NIGHT photos so I'm gonna be doing a little ghost hunting around the house lol!
For some reason the bedroom closet and bathroom freak me out.
The bedroom closet door likes to open right before I turn the knob!
I tested the floor and I just can't figure out why it does that and the air inside just feels heavy.
Same with the bathroom in our bedroom. You feel like someone is in there. I dont know why but Ill take some night shots. Who knows lol!
back to the garden..this jumping of topics is why I call this Mindless jabber lol!
Oh and whenever I am out working on my garden I have a little friend!
A cute baby bunny and he is so tame!
I have a really bad video of him I am adding to the video on my home page today!
Jake and I made this for him lol!
Oh and you guys my squash are growing! My corn is growing! My pumpkins are pumkining, mt peas are peaing...erm...lol..and mater the tomater has a new baby friend!

I got this alert in my email this morning and I thought I should pass it on!!
"If someone comes to your front door saying they are checking for ticks due
to the warming weather and asks you to take your clothes off and dance
around with your arms up...
DO NOT DO IT!!
IT IS A SCAM!!
They only want to see you naked!
I wish I'd gotten this yesterday. I feel so stupid."
