She makes some amazing tarts that are affordable (and they also come in big bundles cheaply) and they all smell so great, so complex. (The tarts themselves are even wonderfully decorated!) Shannon, the owner, is so, so sweet, too - she even packages her goodies with extras! Who does that anymore? The last batch I ordered was her Christmas ones and they're all so yummy! I definitely recommend this seller with no affiliation. =]audrrrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06598399718168613246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-42446163412317347452011-11-29T08:07:29.499-08:002011-11-29T08:07:29.499-08:00I was one of those eBay sellers for a while, and I...I was one of those eBay sellers for a while, and I found that making my own tarts and candles is very satisfying. I no longer sell on line - it's so tough to handle a side business on top of a full-time job - but I still make my own tarts and candles for personal use and gifts. Once you find out how easy it really is, you'll never pay someone else again!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394537674613961372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-65177270192468231892011-11-29T05:14:27.043-08:002011-11-29T05:14:27.043-08:00Carol's site still sells tarts, I just order a...Carol's site still sells tarts, I just order a bunch of them, they even come in fancy shapes.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08889349132072047964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-17683065741299593492011-11-29T02:58:08.695-08:002011-11-29T02:58:08.695-08:00I've been using coffee cup warmers for years w...I've been using coffee cup warmers for years with a cheap thin glass cup to melt my tarts. you can also set small candles on them to melt.jodyls507https://www.blogger.com/profile/12939189835735975614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-65377071314854186912011-11-28T18:41:02.186-08:002011-11-28T18:41:02.186-08:00Gina: Thank you!

Oh, and what scents to you suggest from Can-Do? Thanks!<br /><br />Lacquered Lady: Haha! I have spilled my tart burner a few times and you're right--it's a pain to clean but I find that if I let the spilled wax cool completely it will pop right off a hard surface (carpet, on the other hand, is the worst!). And you know, I've heard people mention that tart burners retain the scent of the previous tart, but I really have only experienced that when it's a scent like pine, which is so strong to begin with. I tend to burn a lot of gourmand and clean scented tarts and they don't really "stick" to my burner (thank goodness!). Anyway, thanks for the tips! :D<br /><br />Angie: Oooh, I think I smell an order in my future (pun intended!). Thanks so much for the rec! xoG.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16658662222451658254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-85777145341093487772011-11-28T18:38:31.250-08:002011-11-28T18:38:31.250-08:00Oh I loooove tarts!

Shannon is wonderful to work with, her tarts come in the breakable 6 pack clam shell (I think that's what they are called). Her tarts are so freaking cute (that's what drew me in the first place!). She has some really unique scents. She sells 5, 10, 20 bundle packs, and she always includes lots of extras in packages (which she packages really well by the way!). I absolutely adore her shop. Highly recommend her!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06870646721160692605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-33191735305402117492011-11-28T18:26:35.180-08:002011-11-28T18:26:35.180-08:00A brief word of warning to a former tart user - pu...A brief word of warning to a former tart user - put them where no one, not even you can knock them over. If these spill - even a little - they are a pain in the butt to get up. Also, tarts are normally more strongly scented than votives, so keep than in mind when selecting a scent. Finally, recognize that most tart burners retain the scent of the former tart even after cleaning.The Lacquered Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191040540538608212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-24662482303167640712011-11-28T16:47:00.817-08:002011-11-28T16:47:00.817-08:00I am obsessed with tarts!!!
