Good morning! My body is still on work mode so I’m up early but I’m officially taking a tiny break until after Christmas! We were able to get all orders placed before December 3rd out in time for the USPS deadline! I’m sorry we had to cut our deadline short this year but we received a ton of orders during our Black Friday sale and I wanted to make sure I had enough time to complete them. Regular orders will start shipping out after Christmas and will include a free gift! I’ll still be around and the shop will still be open so if you receive any of our candles, be sure to tag us! I love seeing your photos! ✨ I’ll be spending the next couple of days catching up on reading, spending time with family, and drinking copious amounts of hot chocolate. I bought a bunch of last minute Christmas gifts on @amazon last night so I guess I should add wrapping presents to the list. 🎄 What’s on your holiday wish list this year? Anything bookish related? (Silly question, eh?) 🎄 Lovely picture by @astoldbymichelle featuring our #SlugClubParty candle! I was so happy we got to make this candle this year. It’s not your typical holiday scent but it kind of reminds me of hanging out with grandpa at your family Christmas party!

If you know me, you know I have a love for nail art so I obviously had to repost this picture from @jennieshaw! She manages to paint tiny little works of art on her fingers and sometimes my candle labels provide her with inspiration! I can’t get over the detail! ❄️ The last of the holiday orders placed before December 3rd, should be shipping today! I’ll be taking a tiny break until after Christmas to spend time with family and just stare at my tree and maybe create some labels for some new candles I’ve been working on. 😉 Any guesses? ❄️ Stay warm people! ❄️ #themeltinglibrary #castachristmasspell #harrypotter #bookcandles

Happy Sunday! We’re almost caught up on Christmas orders, so if we finish before Wednesday we’ll be shipping some orders that were placed after the December 3rd deadline! ❄️ I’m so happy we were able to make these Anastasia themed candles happen this year! #OnceUponaDecember is my newest fave and smells like fizzy champagne, sweet vanilla and sharp spruce. #TogetherinParis smells like citrusy lemon, sweet peppermint and buttery croissants. Both are available in the shop but won’t be around for long! ❄️ Gorgeous photo by the lovely @caylareads! I spy #TheNightingale! Have any of you read this? I absolutely loved it even though I was bawling at the end. The best books make me cry for days afterward!☺️ ❄️ #themeltinglibrary #12DaysOfTML #anastasia #anastasiaromanov #anastasiathemusical #bookcandles #literarycandles #bookmerch #bookishcandles

It’s Friday! Unfortunately, I won’t be resting anytime soon as we need to get the rest of these orders out by next week, but Christmas is coming! I’m mostly excited about food, but hey, food is life. ❄️ Just a heads up that I restocked the store with some older candles to make some room for new candles! New year, New candles! ❄️ What kind of candles would you like see featured in the shop for 2018? I’ll be working on some things after Christmas! ❄️ Yesterday’s #12DaysofTML17 prompt was #WinterCourt and wow! Such beautiful pictures! Today’s prompt is Sweater Weather. I usually love cozy sweaters, but pregnancy hormones got me walking around in a tank top! 😂 ❄️ Lovely picture by @lostinlit_becca featuring our Winter Court candle which smells like wet snow, spruce, apples and pine cones!

Good morning! If you haven’t heard, my lovely reps started their annual #12DaysOfTML challenge yesterday! The first prompt was #HogsmeadeHoliday and I was blown away by the beautiful entries! You can head on over to @themeltingheadquarters to see the entire photo challenge and remember, you DO NOT need these candles to participate! You can interpret the challenge any way you’d like. ❄️ Today’s prompt is Winter Court, which is perfect because it snowed overnight here! ❄️ Also, some of my reps are giving away a TML gift card to their favorite participants! I’ve tagged all my reps in the photo, so definitely check them out because they’re amazing humans! ❄️ Fantastic picture by @accio_library featuring our limited edition HP inspired candle, #HogsmeadeHoliday! It smells like gingerbread and hot chocolate and when I poured a batch yesterday, I could smell it upstairs! Magic. ✨

Good morning y’all! As you can tell from my stories, we’ve been working around the clock to get your orders to you before Christmas. Just a reminder that our deadline was December 3rd for delivery before Christmas, however all orders placed after that will receive a free gift with purchase! 🎄 Also, we do have a gift card option available for last minute gifts and stocking stuffers! 🎄 Have you gotten all of your holiday shopping done? I definitely haven’t. Thank God for @amazon Prime! 🎄 Lovely picture by @fantasynonsense featuring our #PippinsPint candle! #itcomesinpints 😉

Happy Friday guys! Lason and I are about to be #teamnosleep for the next week to get all of your orders out to you! I’m taking a small “break” today for a 3 hour test at my doctors (🙄), so if you have any questions, send them to my email since I won’t be doing much but getting poked and sitting around for the next couple of hours. ❄️ I managed to read one book last month (The Last Namsara) and I really liked it, but The Bronze Horseman still reigns as the number one read for me this year! I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get Alexander and Tatiana out of my head. ❄️ What was your favorite read this year? ❄️ Stunning photo by the one and only @astoldbymichelle formerly known as thebooknook, featuring Cast a Christmas Spell which is my second favorite candle out of our holiday bunch, following behind Once Upon a December. By the way, I burn both of them together and omgaaahhhh! 😍

Sorry this took forever, but it was SO hard narrowing this down! I swear, it gets tougher each time! Anyway, here are our new reps! I’m so excited to be working with them and seeing our candles featured in their photos! 🕯 If you weren’t chosen this time, I urge you to not give up hope and please enter again in three months! There were some seriously amazing entries and I really look forward to working with all of you eventually! 🕯 Welcome @polly.florence @iammissmistake @booklattes @originally.jd @charli_the_book_princess @lostinlit_becca @pageskimmed to the #TMLFamily!

Happy Thanksgiving y’all! I’m up early to make sweet potato casserole (that’s as far as my cooking skills go!) and help my husband with all his dishes. Just wanted to stop in while I have time to say how thankful we are for all of you! Our little business has grown quite a bit and it’s all thanks to this awesome community where books are life! ❤️ I hope you all have a magical day, whether you celebrate or not, and may your dinners be as magical as Chandresh’s! ❤️ Have you read #TheNightCircus?!

Hi guys! I’m sorry I’ve been so quiet lately, but we’ve been throwing down in the candle dungeon! We still have quite a few to send out but we’re hoping to be all caught up by next week, we’re just waiting on our last supply shipment of the year and it was a bit delayed because it’s SO BIG! ❄️ Some of the Christmas candles have gone out but the rest will be shipping very soon! ❄️ Some of you have been asking and YES we will be having a Black Friday sale! I’ll post the ad next. ❄️ Another question we’ve been getting a lot is about our Christmas cut off dates! Right now, it’s December 3rd for guaranteed Christmas delivery. If we can speed it up, I will certainly let you know. Also, if you don’t need your order by Christmas, we’ll be offering a free gift with purchase for any orders after December 3rd through December 31st! ❄️ Do you have any plans for Thanksgiving?? I plan on stuffing my face and staring at my Christmas tree which never came down from last year. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Happy Holidays, y’all! ❄️ Gorgeous photo by @abibliophilesbkm featuring our #WinterCourt candle!

REP SEARCH! I'm finally letting my current reps go. 😫 It's always hard because they were SO amazing to work with and bounce ideas off of!We're currently looking for FOUR reps! Must love books, long chats about fictional characters, read and sniff brainstorms and candles! Also, the following: 🕯 Incentives: - Get 2-3 candles a month (most likely sent in one big box as I'm terrible at doing it monthly! ☺) - Free shipping on any personal orders! - A discount code to share with your followers! 🕯 Requirements: - Fun, high quality photos and creative shoots that will really showcase our candles! We'd require at least 4-5 promotional posts per month. - One on one honest feedback about our products! What can we do to make it better? Does the scent accurately represent the character/story?, etc. 🕯 To Enter: - Must be following us @themeltinglibrary! - Repost this photo and tell us where you're from and if you could have a candle from any book, what would it be? - Tag #TMLRepSubmissions4 on 5 of your photos that you feel best represent your style! Photo collages work! -Your page must be public! - This is international. -18 and over unless you can provide parental consent! -Search ends 11/27/17 and your rep cycle starts 12/1/2017! -Follower count does not matter! I found that some of my reps with the smallest follower count had the biggest impact. ❤ 🕯 And that's it - I think! May the odds be ever in your favor! 😉 🕯 Photo by one of the best @accio_library ❤ #repsearch #books #bookish #bookmerch #bookcandles #literarycandles

Hi guys! We had a long weekend of pouring and packing and managed to get most of the delayed orders out! We'll be packing more today and tomorrow so if your order is delayed, feel free to send me an email with your order number and I can give you an update. 📖 Some of our Christmas scents came in over the weekend and I cannot wait to start pouring them! Our holiday collection is up for sale in our shop now! It includes: -Hogsmeade Holiday -Cast a Christmas Spell -Slug Club Party -Tinsel & Tomes -Once Upon a December 📖 We're also introducing a new HP candle because we definitely don't have enough (🙄), inspired by @accio_library's birthday trip to Hogsmeade! Look out for that in our stories later. New candle means we'll be discontinuing a few so if you're interested in any of the following, you have until Friday to snag one: -Autumn Prince -A World With Octobers -Flannel & Fiction -Goddess of Truth -The Beast King 📖 I think that's it for now! I'll also be sending out a newsletter later this week. Sign up on our website so you don't miss it! 📖 Lovely photo by @abookishdragon featuring our #RestrictedSection candle which smells just like a magical library! It's one of my favorite creations ever. ❤️

It's officially Christmas season! No, not really, but it seems like it. 😂 All of the stores immediately pulled out the Christmas decor. I'm not mad at it since I never took my Christmas tree down! 😂 I really had nothing else to put in the spot and plus my dogs like to sleep under it. 🤷🏽‍♀️ ❤️ Anyway, just a quick update because I've been getting a ton of emails! We are a bit behind due to the delayed jars but we are quickly catching up. The last of the 4 oz orders for September should have shipped yesterday, but I had a bit of a scare and ended up spending some time in the hospital. Also, our Will & Jem candles are a bit delayed but they should be shipping out by this week. ❤️ Lastly, I've been trying to be better about updating everyone in regards to delays and things, but would you prefer a newsletter or keep posting on social media? I know most of my orders are generated via IG, but would you prefer a general update in your inbox? I know too many newsletters might be annoying so I figured I'd ask! ❤️ Let me know below! ❤️ Lovely photo by @thebooknook featuring our #PumpkinTasties candle which is just one of my absolute faves right now!
