Excalibur Of Yuletide is the name my daughter chose when she decided recently to open an online store on Etsy
Excalibur Of Yuletide
She has been creating many things to stock her shelves. I believe her soy candles are my favorite.
The flowers she uses to decorate the candles come from her own backyard. These rose scented candles are decorated with roses from an antique rose bush that was originally growing in the garden of a 150 year old house. It escaped its own yard and was sending up shoots in my daughters yard and she dug one and transplanted it into the garden of her new home. It seems to really like its new location!
She isn't doing overseas shipping through Etsy, but if you message her directly she will work to arrange to get a package to you!
I hope I can convince her, @zythia13 ,to do some posts here about creating her products and stories about her delightful little store!
Because I have found that leading with generosity is such a beautiful way to have it come around to you in a genuine way later. - @dreemsteem

Hello! Thank you for the compliments! I do not know how much it costs. For something small it is probably 20 - 30 USD. The problem for me to try to ship from my store is because my store is considered a business. There are SO many rules in place for businesses that have huge fines if they are not followed. For example, much of the EU has a program called LUCID. This program lowers the cost of shipping for businesses who use recycled, eco-friendly, and easy to recycle packaging. That's wonderful! And I do use those things! However, I have to register my business into the program and have my materials approved or I will be fined. The process is difficult for me because I am a business of just one person, and only have one government tax number. The LUCID program wants several different business numbers to register and I don't have those! Ha! There is also VAT, and all the different Tariffs to work with. And, as a business, I have to create and have available all the different privacy policies for each country that wants one. And those are just the things I know about - I am sure there are so many more rules for business shipping! I would have to ship things as a friend, rather than through my Etsy online store, and I'm sure my post office could help me with that! :)
Those are some lovely candle that she made. well decorated.
Hope she can post more on hive, and maybe she can accept hive or crypto for payment.
Thank you! I have been having so much fun creating different things for my online store!
That is so nice. sending some !PIZZA and a little bit of !LUV for you.

BEER.Hey @melinda010100, here is a little bit of
BEERfrom @pixresteemer for you. Enjoy it!Do you want to win SOME BEER together with your friends and draw the
BEERKING.Lovely garden and lovely candles. Love the gateway even has a birdhouse... lovely
!LUV
She built the gate herself. The long poles came from a couple of arborvitae trees that she cut down in the backyard, the gate was made out of an old pallet, and the trellis material was repurposed. I think the bird house is one that my grandson built. The Sparrows love it.
Thats even more awesome! Thats my kind of project. The re-use and creativity is great for the planet but I also am deeply frugal so I love it on two levels haha

Thank you! One summer when all the flowers were in bloom and sparrows had a nest in the box, we had a very strong wind that blew over many trees and sheds on my street. The entire archway and all the little birds blew over! This had never happened before in almost ten years! My husband caught any little birds that got out and put them back and we set everything upright and used very long metal stakes to attach to each post. The flowers didn't look as lovely because they were all smashed, but they were fine again the next year! It shouldn't ever happen again with the new metal stakes!
Its a tragedy when it happens but once the birds are saved its all good. A fun part of building things yourself is learning as you go 🙂
Oh my God! What a beauty!🤩It really transforms a monotonous green look into a bright cheerful multi-colored one!
I can imagine what a nice smell it is. Sometimes in the spring I pass by flowering bushes or flower beds and just enjoy it.
It is an old fashioned rose with a heavenly scent. She has so many lovely smelling flowers in her yard!
So many flowers covered in bindweed and thistles! Ha!
Thank you! I think the green ones are my favorite, actually. And they have been very popular! I almost sold them all and had to make this new batch! :)

Those roses are beautiful. Makes me wish I had time to get out and take care of my plants around the house. We have a ton of peonies. They are gorgeous flowers too. Checking out the store and sending it to my wife. She likes candles.
I would give @zythia13 a follow but I already am, lol! I remember her rat post. If you reading this @zythia13 some tutorials on making the candles would really be interesting to see!
Thank you! Yes, I know I should make more posts. Lol AND spend more time out in the garden. The bindweed and thistles are overwhelming. Lol

Thanks dear Denisse! Hope all is well and your mom is doing OK now.
I just added a Spanish Ecency room in the Ecency Discord. I would love to have you join in there. Would you like to try to connect to Discord? I can help if you have difficulty.
We're pretty good. Let's go one day at a time, my mom is doing pretty well. She already closed the wound completely. How are you?
Of course I would love it, if you can explain to me what I should do
Since I already have a Discord account I can't see what you see. If you come to a page that you don't know what to do send me a screen shot and we can figure it out together!
I think I'm already part of ecency on Discord
You are there. I just wrote a message to you in general English
If I just saw, for a moment I thought I had forgotten my Discord password🙈🙈🙈
She should be proud of saving the rosebush, hopefully ots heritage will continue for many centuries :)
Those are some nice candles :)
This challenge is just zinging everywhere and I'm so pumped. Hey, those are beautiful ways to go about candles. If i could, i would order some. what better way to advertise than patronize a fellow Hiver??? Hehhehehee
Thanks! I am so pumped, too! What an exciting month July is going to be!
Oh, I love a proud mummy post! Your daughter's creativity is through the roof. I absolutely love the candles and her garden is just divine. 💛
Proud mommy indeed! It doesn't stop just because your kids grow up! 🤩
Indeed! 💛
Oh wow those are lovely flowers. Did she wax the flowers too??? I mean dip it in wax or something?
Yes, she waxes them.
Oh that's cool. It will be preserved.
