Hello Everyone!and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
I've been such a slacker with my blog lately so am going to try to fix that and beginning now.
I am going to make a 'plug' for what I think is a cool thing! Pictured above are two hand-made gel candles that are scented. The person who hand makes these is a friend of mine and also one of my students of scuba. She is very talented. She is also a very hard worker and makes these in addition to her full-time job and alongside of another part time job.
I have the two pictured above and they are very kewel. She buys shells and sand and the other materials and puts her loving touch to each candle by carefully placing each shell.
Some reading this might think it a bad thing to be using shells 'taken' from the Sea. However, to those who are; know that nothing was living in these shells at the time they were collected.
Additionally shells are beautiful things. But unless you live or travel to where they are found, you will never have the chance to see them. So, PC aside, these candles allow people who might enjoy shells, but, who do not get a chance to see shells, the opportunity to do so.
Also these candles help a very hard-working young woman earn her way in life! They make great candles for your own home and I believe a nice gift for Christmas for some one special in your life.

I must say that I myself have purchased candles from this person, and they smell great and wow - to be honest they are beautiful!! The way the bubbles in the candles capture the essence and surreal nature of the ocean! Its awesome! Everyone should take a look - and really take a chance and enjoy something you don't get to everyday! Honestly - I want to buy another one.. I think I'll go do that!
