I love bricks and tend to go through them fast because I use a whole cube ( unless it’s a strong one like Fluffy Fleece than I use half or a quarter) per warmer and when i use a brick - I put the scents throughout my home. It’s probably the only time my house has the same smell everywhere and I love that. I have 6 warmers downstairs so I can use a brick up pretty fast. I also tend to use bricks when i don’t want to switch out wax the next day - so I let it stay a day or two. When I use regular bars and just two cubes a warmer - I change wax every day so bricks are super convenient for me. We love Drew - he sounds so happy and we love hearing him ❤
Your scent note recall ability makes me smile 😊 Summer Berry Melon is so crazy strong in my home. It's taking me forever to get through my brick(s) because I have to go easier on that one. Drew sounds like he's having a grand old time 😄 too cute!
I was looking up the notes the day before for the video. Lately I’ve been reading notes from the catalog but I often find I’m faster relying on my memory.
I love hearing Drew. He sounds so happy. Having brick goals is good. I have 3 bricks but need to stay on top of my melting schedule with these, and your schedule makes me think that I need one, too. I personally like the tree bricks. I think they are festive. ( the tree packaging) Your brick collection is so awesome, and you have some gems. Thanks for sharing 😊❤
(Jane) Thank you for the video. My strategy for using bricks is if I have a bar that I need to mix with something, I will mix it with a brick rather than another bar.
I am with you. Not a fan of maraschino sugar cookie. I get cough syrup. I am melting it today actually. Better at the end of the melt for me. We have not had red white and berry pie here in region three. You have reminded me to get back to my bricks though. I appreciate your thoughts and enjoy watching your channel so thank you.
I love Cranberry&Tinsel, I used my brick last year and wish I had another. It’s so nice for the Holidays. You have encouraged me to try to use some of my bricks up the rest of the year. I tend to reach for my bars because they are so much easier to pop into a warmer. Thanks Patricia, I love your videos and scent descriptions, so helpful.❤
Thanks for the video! I was doing better last year with bricks for some reason. Recently I warmed a cube of my Sugar Cookie brick and it performed so much better than I remembered.I am going to work on that one and Maraschino Sugar Cookie (I am a fan). Despite all my mixing efforts I just didn't like Caramel Chestnut - so I finished that brick by sharing with a friend who liked that one.
OH my gosh! I LOOOOVE Silver Bells. I have a bar warming in my bedroom. It's so calming. LOL It's from last year, but I will be getting more this year.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes It was so funny because my 6 year old son picked it out. He was going through my stash and said "Ohhh, Mom! We HAVE TO warm this one!!" HAHA
Hi Patricia! More great progress. This fall and winter I’ll be working on my bricks from last year: Pumpkin Roll, MSC, Holly Jolly Cider and Candy Apple (when I’m in the right mood to get through it).
This morning I put some of my Red Pear and Pomegranate brick(got on the black market) in the living room , will be sad when it’s gone. Ooh Maraschino Sugar Cookie, my favorite club bar and still have a few bricks! Red White and Berry in my club too so yummy. Glad Drew is so happy this morning! 🥰 You have some good bricks, I agree I prefer the regular shaped bricks too. Loved seeing your progress!
Maraschino sugar cookie is one of my top 3 fav scents it makes me sad every time you say you don’t like it loll I have so many bricks and bars of it and I’m happy about it 🤣 I warm it so much fall and winter. I will be finishing my welcome home, sugar cookie in October I don’t have much left of either and start on my orange spice and everything nice! I’m still in summer mode.
Forever flannel should have come back! I only have one in my club I wish I could get more I love it for my bedroom. Totally agree it is very similar to coconut cotton.
I appreciate your suggestion here in the comments to designate a “melt from your bricks” day. Only have 3 currently, all holiday, 2 of which are from Dec’21 so yeah, need to remember to warm them. Enjoyed the video as always, Thanks Patricia!
I was just thinking yesterday when your next brick video might be! 😊 I am also planning to work on quite a few of the same as you, silver bells my last brick of 3! I think I have like 1/3 left. Maraschino sugar cookie almost at the end too. And practically full bricks I need to make a dent: sweet orange pomander, cranberry &tinsel, spiced eggnog, vanilla cinnamon maple, winters eve, icicles &evergreen, caramel chestnut. I am very behind on finishing bricks- only have gone through about 4! 😅 I think my goal was like 10!
Hopefully you’ll be able to step it up with Fall Winter coming, since the majority of bricks tend to be in that category (exception is club ones) I think after the holidays I’m going to pick Spiced Eggnog and Caramel Chestnut, since I like those kind of scents in the winter.
I don’t have many bricks but I have icicles and evergreen that is two years old; it’s sweaty so I’ll have to work on that one. I’ve been slow melting it because I love it and it’s my only one 😢
I love Maraschino Sugar Cookie for the scent, but it makes me prone to headaches, which is unfortunate!! I finished off a ton of bricks at the end of winter, but haven’t used much since. I’m excited to get back into them, since they are mostly fall or winter scents. I’ll also be waiting to try the new bricks until they’re released to customers so I can try them in bar form in my club. I’ll only purchase a brick if I love a scent, although I love bricks enough that I hope I love at least one scent!
My brick strategy for the rest of this year is to NOT buy the early access set of holiday bricks. I am not a fan of pine/Christmas tree scents nor of candy sweet scents. I might try Warm Winter Night and Wrapped in Lights based on reviews. I have 2 Holly Jolly Cider bricks because I really enjoyed that. I will easily finish off one of them. I also have an Orange Spice and Everything Nice that I will try to totally use over the season - I liked it fine but must have gotten it on clearance to have ended up with another one😂.
I tend to chop about 4 brick cubes and put smaller cube size bits into labelled mason jars and have a selection in with bars I’m planning to melt in the next month . Current chopped bricks are orange spice and everything nice , icicles and evergreen and caramel chestnut . I’m going wait in reviews of new bricks before buying ( well that’s the plan 😂) love your brick warming vids .. 😊
That’s kind of my approach. I pick some bricks to work on and tend to chop 3 brick cubes to make sure I use at least that much from each scent. I try to pick a blender type scent too, which I forgot to include but it’s still Vanilla Bean Buttercream (until that one is empty)

I worry if I use the same scent everywhere I’ll go noseblind. I’ll have to try it someday since I have never tried it.
Hi Drew! Nice of you to share mom with us
He’s easy-going like that 😃
Drew squeaking in the background made me smile! I also like red white and d berry pie better
He’s adorable. Sometimes he squeals with excitement in restaurants which is funny
Thanks for the brick reminder. I only have 2, they are both winter cranberry based. Time to give them a whirl soon 👍
Getting to that time of year

I have so many bricks! If I don’t plan to work through them it would be a disaster

I love pumpkin roll
Me too

What a smart approach
I love hearing Drew in the background!! I hope to meet him one day! Great work on your bricks, Patricia!
He’s really good natured. So much so that if he cries everyone gets worried.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes I just adore that. What a good boy.
I’m with you, Patricia. Maraschino Sugar cookie almost ran us out of the house. 😂. Red, White & Cherry Pie is perfection. Thank you for sharing.
Seems like so many people love MSC. There’s just something about it that I don’t like.

Bricks take up a lot of room so best use some up, especially if they don’t have many cubes left

Caramel Chestnut is hit or miss for me depending on my mood. Did you have a fave mix for it out of the ones you tried?
Good morning, Patricia! Thank you for another great video! I wish I had Silver Bells in brick, it’s my fave.
We’re so lucky to have it return to the catalog
OH my gosh! I LOOOOVE Silver Bells. I have a bar warming in my bedroom. It's so calming. LOL It's from last year, but I will be getting more this year.
I love it too!
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes It was so funny because my 6 year old son picked it out. He was going through my stash and said "Ohhh, Mom! We HAVE TO warm this one!!" HAHA
I love cranberries and tinsel. I would love to see that one come back again. One of my favorites. Nice video.😊
I’m surprised it hasn’t reappeared in a Scents of the Season collection.
I will be working on squeeze the day for a prompt this week. Enjoy your videos.
I will get a brick of that later once I have reduced my number more. I have so many still 😐
Hi Patricia! More great progress. This fall and winter I’ll be working on my bricks from last year: Pumpkin Roll, MSC, Holly Jolly Cider and Candy Apple (when I’m in the right mood to get through it).
Will you pick up the early access bricks?
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes I’m not sure yet but if not, I will add to my club and get the bars instead. Are you getting them?

I just have what’s left of my brick. I thought it would make a comeback
Just placed 2 bricks in my scentsy club for the first time. Blueberry Cheesecake, Blue Grotto
Nice choice x2
I have many bricks and need to start warming them ‼️
Maybe pick a day to devote on bc a regular basis. Example every payday, etc
I have a slew of bricks but they’re usually an afterthought. I tend to use bars first. But this season, I promise to get through them.
They tend to build dust
Good on you for attempting to get on things and warm through some

Good morning!
Hi, are you getting the new 5 pack bundle tomorrow? I’m tempted but I’m going to pass and get😊 it two for 40 when They officially release.
Yes I am! I filmed this video before knowing the date of the early access kits. Always so excited for bricks
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes yup it’s tomorrow 🤗👏🏼

Well at least the tree shapes aren’t as much wax to use up
That’s true!
Which means if I love a scent, I can get an extra spare. 😂😂
Cinnamon Chai Latte is my all time favorite scent 😊 I only have one brick left 🙁
I wish they would offer it up for BBMB VOTING!

I have not ordered a thing because I’m so bitter about them not bringing back forever flannel!!! 😂
I’m surprised they didn’t select that one for the catalog. It sold out while available which typically doesn’t happen (lately)
I have bricks I need to get at before I get any more. Well so I say.
Maybe pick set times per month to pick them to melt. Especially with new bricks coming
