Its almost the end of 2015 and you are still here. Whatever you have been through this year I am so proud of you for being so strong. I’m so proud of you. 2016 will be a better year for you.
I really love whoever posted this. This really made me feel better!
Candlelight is always a beautiful way of illuminating a room or dining table. Perfume can easily be added to candles by dropping a single drop of essential oil to the puddle of melted wax near the wick. These candles have been decorated with pressed herbs; the matching essential oil can be added later.

Fill the jar with boiling water. Decorating the candles one by one, dip a candle into the water, holding it by the wick, and keep it submerged for about 1 1/2 minutes. Using tweezers, quickly press the herbs onto the softened wax. Once your design is finished or the wax is no longer soft enough for the herbs to stick, immerse the candle in the boiling water again. This leaves a layer of wax over the design — the more you dip the candle, the further inward the herbs will move. When the wax hardens, the candle is done.
To add the scents, burn the candle long enough for the aforementioned puddle to form around the wick. Then add 1 drop of essential oil to the puddle.

“I think that people are built the way that they’re built. There’s that Kate Moss quote that’s like ‘Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels’ and I can name a lot of things that taste better than skinny feels: bread, potatoes … a Philly cheesesteak and fries.” — Jennifer Lawrence to Entertainment Tonight
