Wax Melts gifts for the season:)

 As we know candles are beautiful decorative objects and source of wonder & delight in many ways. Making candles in different size/shapes and in different colours...it's a creativity with joy and each one is work of art. I got inspired to make wax melts this week-end, made fruit shaped wax melts with used candles. I used lemongrass oil to the wax liquid for the fragrance.  It's so easy to make with bit of care. All that we need used candles or wax, fragrance oils/essential oils, tray moulds & sheet of  waste paper. Wax moulds are becoming popular these days as gifts . 

Melt the candles in the double boiler add the fragrance oil to the melted wax and pour the wax liquid to the tray moulds. Before pouring the wax liquid to the tray place the trays on the waste paper sheet from surface becoming dirty. Allow the wax to cool. Later gently remove the wax melts from the moulds from sides with a knife without breaking.

As festivities are nearing home made wax melts can be packed in small boxes or in bottles tied with ribbons and gifted away.  

How to use wax melts? Place one or two wax melts on the wax burner and keep a tea light under for the melts to melt.

200th post at Crystal Grandeur!

This is my 200th post at Crystal Grandeur!  As a profound blogger it is a moment of joy for me as well.   It has been a wonderful journey all along.  Crystal Grandeur blossomed in November 2011 with Diwali & Christmas decors and it is my small world where my imagination and creations comes to reality.  I admire some of the blogs crossing 400+ posts. I appreciate and thank them for influencing others to do the same.  Speaking of my love for decors and styling I enjoy exploring different aesthetics and incorporate them in my decors and tablescapes. It helps me to keep moving forward  with new and fresh ideas  and doesn't let me be stagnant to one particular style.    For a nostalgia kick i share with you all... my delightful moments at Crystal Grandeur. Receiving appreciation for your creation in the form of comments always touches ones heart. (Sharing some of my past posts sweet comments posted by dear readers from across...

Festive Give Away:)))

  Season Fall is to arrive soon and the season has its own charm in providing us with plenty of seasonal specials. Oranges are best during Fall and they last from beginning of Fall to end of Winter. In our garden plenty of Calamondin oranges started to appear and the fresh smell of the citrus in the air so soothing.  Plucked few of them and made marmalade from the ripen oranges for the morning toast. Also a good idea to make marmalade when the oranges are plenty, fill them in cute little bottles,tie with a ribbon/card and gift it when there is a Fall party or for Thanks giving & festive occasions. Its easy and quick to make and my way of preparing the recipe is given right here.  Cut the calamondin orange to half, remove the pulp and the skin separately. While removing the pulp take away the seeds. Squeeze out the juice from the pulp using a thin cloth . Cut the skin to thin stripes.  Put a heavy bottom pan on the stove and keep on low flame. (For one glass of ju...
