Colorful Coffee Cup Candles

Don't you just love Goodwill? Aaron and I do! And, we have a really big, clean, fully-stocked Goodwill right down the road from our apartment, so yeah, we're there quite a bit, if only just to browse.

About a week ago, we found this awesome soy-candle-making kit ($1.99!). We decided on two brightly colored coffee cups as the containers ($59 cents a piece!), and this was the final result:



I absolutely love them. They're bright and cheery and are just the right sort of eclectic :)

I've been working from home lately, so my projects have slowed down a bit; however, I did begin the makings of a quilt--or, as my Nana suggested, a pillowcase, just in case the quilt becomes too large of a task for this novice non-sewer!


Happy Thursday! It's currently 82 degrees in San Marcos, and it's going to get up to about 101 today. I already feel like I'm melting!
