  • Hey guys! Let's check out my current Bath and Body Works candle collection as of June 2022. I had to use the stabilization mode in iMovie to prevent the shakiness from making me sick when I was watching but this is the first time I have used it. It's obviously less than ideal but I can assure this was better than how shakey the video was before. I will try to figure out a better system before filming the rest of the collection videos. Please be sure to subscribe if you are new!

    I love a good collection video! 😍 I have decided that I never want my entire candle collection to go over 100, because more than that overwhelms me. That said, my ultimate preference is 50-60 at any given time, but I've been adding more to my no burn collection so it's been tough! I'm good at burning through them though because it's so satisfying to finish a candle 😁

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for sharing!! I love burning and melting so that has really helped me get to a more reasonable collection. Although even what I have now is more than what I want from BBW. I feel like BBW is very easy for me to just buy what I need from each season instead of hoarding. Can't wait to get there!

    Hi Melanie! Great video. You are so right, having so many candles can be overwhelming. I have way too many, so many, I find myself forgetting what I have. I have been going through parts of my collection and am going to list for sale on many and set aside some for gift giving. I definitely am not keeping those fragrances that are just ok or not my cup of tea. I no longer buy so many backups, my limit is 4 on my most favorite but normally now like to keep backups to 2 on those
    I really enjoy. I am proud of you, you have done a fabulous job of controlling yourself and enjoying what you have, a lesson which is rubbing off on me thank goodness! The star of the video is not a bbw candle but that adorable baby of yours. What an adorable face. I literally backed up the video so
    I could get a second glimpse of that face!

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm so glad you are making an effort to get through your stash as well. I really can't wait to reach my goal. After filming yesterday I totally thought it might be better to bring back a few of the extra backups I originally bought during the sale from the blends collection. Seeing how many I brought in during the sale kind of bummed out me out after seeing them all piled together lol.

    🙈 I have 346 BBW 3-wicks, 54 single wicks and a handful of tester candles. I also have 78 Yankee Candles(including Woodwicks) 42 Goose Creeks and a few random from others brands. Some of the randoms include 5 Homeworx. Believe it or not I am trying to cut down on the amount I have but it is definitely a process. Thanks for sharing your collection! It's really encouraging because I remember how big your BBW collection used to be.

      @MrKongsMom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Do you have trouble with storage? If not, and it makes you happy, enjoy it ❤️ I think I just go through periods of being overwhelmed sometimes. After this video I actually decided to bring back the extra's I picked up during SAS from the blends collection. They are weaker than expected and while I LOVE the scents, I'd rather wait for them to come back and hopefully the next time they have more oomph to them.

      @candyevans8978 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MrKongsMom I actually have a couple of sturdy cabinets that I keep my candles in to keep the light off of them but it can be a little overwhelming. Also I found with the newer candles if I let them set for about 6 weeks, they get stronger. So maybe hold on to them for a little bit longer and see if that helps.🙂

    Your dogs always make me really want to get a pug 😂😍 I enjoyed seeing your collection! I think I had over 50 B&BW candles at one point but this past year and a half or so I decided to really knuckle down and get burning and purchase much less and I think I have less than 15 now. My Scentsy stash is a completely different story though 🫢😂

    Oh, I forgot to answer your question to us! I am hesitant, but here goes, couple hundred. As bad as that sounds, I do want to say that a good number of them date back from years ago, like 2015 - 2017 and came across some even older. So this out of hand collection of mine runs through like 10 years.

      I just use the manufacture dates that on printed on the bottom to keep track. Usually the candles hold up fairly well so I don't necessarily feel like I have to ensure to burn the oldest first. But that would be a great thing to do with things like Scentsy or vendor wax!
