@caitbird, if ever there was a scentsational haul… 😍 Those are some great candles you picked up. Will be curious to know which will be your favorite scent from that Voluspa set. The containers can be repurposed for so many things too, once you go through them.

[caitbird]

@itsfi  thank you - and thanks for the recommendation! I am excited to try the Voluspa candles and find out which ones I like best! And I definitely plan to repurpose as many of the containers as I can, I think that's a great idea. What do you use yours for? I am always on the lookout for more ideas!

[itsfi]

@caitbird, you're very welcome, always happy to help. 😊 Depending on the size, I've repurposed the Voluspa candle jars for a host of things - 

* makeup brush holder - I have a jar for clean brushes, to be used, as well as one for brushes-to-be-cleaned

* as a vase for flowers - many of the floral arrangements in my photos are in repurposed Voluspa candle jars

* jewelry - their candle tins I use for this purpose both at home and for traveling

* office suppliers - paper clips, binder clips, pencils, pens, ruler, scissors, etc.

* hair ties - I'm forever misplacing mine and the candle jars have come in handy as a repository for my hair accessories - hair ties, clips, claws, barettes, etc.

* Q-tips/cotton swabs, cotton rounds, etc.

* loose change 

* as a prettier valet to hold things like my car keys - the larger tins are great or this

* snacks (like snack size or individually wrapped candies) or powdered drink sticks (like my supergreens powder sticks)

* makeup - lipliners, eyeliners, lip gloss, lipsticks, eyeshadow sticks, blush sticks, fragrance rollerballs, perfume vials, concealer, eyebrown pencils, mascara, etc.

@itsfi  wow, thanks for all the ideas, I love this! 💜 I like your method of sorting your makeup brushes into clean or dirty - I have mine in different containers depending on purpose/type (e.g. eye brushes, powder brushes, etc.) but your way seems very useful!

[itsfi]

Yes, yes! I have many of my brushes organized in my drawers by category - eyes, blush, bronzer, etc. and then I'll pull out what I want to use and put the assortment of them in a holder like the Voluspa candle jar. @caitbird

[caitbird]

@curlychiquita  thank you! I am just getting into candles, but I am not good at doing things by halves 😅

@caitbird  Great haul! Voludpa has great candles. They have a great scent throw. I hope you find some favs! 

[caitbird]

@ather  thank you! I have definitely heard good things about Voluspa, so I was excited to try this set. I am sure I will find some loves among them - I'm just curious to find out which ones I'll like best!

[Southernchic99]

@caitbird  LOVE! I feel like I can almost smell these through my phone 🤗😁

[caitbird]

@Southernchic99  thank you! 💜 They do smell very good!

[CookieGirl1]

@caitbird That Voluspa set will be so fun to have!  Nice that you can try out a bunch at once.

[caitbird]

@CookieGirl1  thank you! Yes, I love sampler sets, especially with things like fragrance when you're ordering online and you don't know which scents you would like best.

[CorgiMommy]

@caitbird those candles look amazing, enjoy.  I hope you like the CT fragrance sampler, would love your thoughts on it.

[caitbird]

@CorgiMommy  thank you! I just thought the CT fragrances sounded intriguing, will post an update with my thoughts once I'm able to try them all.
