Homemade Beeswax Candles

Homemade Beeswax Candles
Beeswax candles are our newest obsession! Not only is pure beeswax a beautiful golden color, it has a cleansing effect on the air in your home. Beeswax is naturally scented. I love the scent. It's fresh and pretty, but not overpowering... a little bit like honey! We purchased 5 pounds of pure beeswax from this Etsy shop and made more than ten candles with it. 1. I am so excited to enjoy these natural candles in my new home.

How To Style Maiden Braids Last month I did a makeover story with Kelsie and had many requests for a maiden braid tutorial. Yesterday she came in and we photographed these simple step by steps. Kelsie has extremely long and thick hair, but anyone with shoulder length or longer can do these braids (see my photo below for an example). Steps 1-2: Braid two strands on each side of a center part. Steps 3-5: Wrap braids around the crown of your head and pin in place with one pin each. Step 6: Arrange braids so that they cover the front of your head like a headband. Steps 7-8: Pull the rest of the hair into a ponytail and pin it into a cute messy bun. Step 9: Add final pins and spray.

Putting aside the issue of whether Field of Dreams was single-handedly responsible for the Millennium Dome for a moment, I'd like to suggest the same is true of the chocolate brownie. Put brownies on the menu, and people will come, and they will order dessert. *Actually, it's "he will come". Cakey v fudgey When it comes to brownies, I bow to "his Holiness Lord Nigel", as one blogger terms the Observer's celebrated cookery writer, and the Very Good Chocolate Brownies from his Kitchen Diaries which, in my experience, more than live up to their boastful billing. The world splits into two camps on the brownie issues: crumbly and cakey, and dense and fudgey. The more butter the better? All rise? Old-style brownies Technique Perfect chocolate brownies
