I finally just watched this video. The first time I tried I couldn't get past two minutes. It was too sad just seeing her face in the still shots. I adore and love her even though I have never met her. This was a very sweet tribute to Mary. Your beautiful message inside the box to Mary was very touching...it brought me to tears.
Breathtakingly beautiful on every level - you handled your journey in memorializing MTM with such grace, care, and thoughtfulness. She was my favorite icon of all time, bar none. Angel’s Wings is one of my favorite candles of all time, and it was a perfect gift to give to Mary. This video was stunning.
Such a heart felt video, i really enjoyed it. I lost my husband 4 years ago to cancer && fragrance is so powerful an is able to bring you back to many memories. It's amazing how the brain works with scents an can bring you back to specific time an place Or even remind you of a loved one
Nicole Menard ... Nicole, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband, but I'm so glad that you found fragrance as a source of recovery, reflection and growth. What you've explained is precisely what has always made aroma an enormous element in my life. Thank you for sharing ❤️. It was truly a pleasure for me to share this moment with this fine circle of candle enthusiasts :)
Oh gosh, I have no words. But I do have tears. That was so so beautiful, moving and profound. Having lost a huge part of my heart to the earthly death of a loved one, I know how important it is to take physical steps towards healing. You helped a lot of people through making this, and brought all of us on a very emotional journey that everyone can relate to. Thank you for this beautiful gift! 😢 It was superbly excited!!!
Rebekah Johnson ... This one has been on my agenda for awhile now. It got set back for nearly a month due to an East Coast blizzard. But the early Spring colors made for much prettier photography for Mary. So sorry to hear about your loss ❤️. I hope that even in the smallest way possible that this video can help comfort or ease the spirit of someone who is going through a difficult moment (let them know happiness can be retrieved). This vid was an absolute pleasure to make and share! More smiles and less tears for the near future :)
What a heart-warming and tender tribute - truly one of your best efforts. Kinda of a 'Tear Jerker' (at least for me at the end). Continue keeping it "real and genuine" and you will continue to attract more and more subscribers! You really put your heart and soul into this special tribute to Mary Tyler Moore - it was absolutely lovely!
Tam Maria ... Let me tell you, everything about this experience has been wonderful. I met some really kind folks, ate some treats, had adequate time for reflection, had some therapeutic editing sessions... and moment with Mary. What's even more wonderful, is the kindness you folks have thrown my way. It was a pleasure to share this moment :) I'm going to let this channel grow organically by taking your advice... Keep it real, keep it genuine. So much more to come :) Again, thank you so much for your support. Your comment truly made my day so much better :)
There was another episode where you placed an "Apple" near an orchard as a tribute/remembrance to your Grandmother (I think it was) that was also very touching and sentimental.
i wasn't sure where this video was going at first, but it was a nice tribute..... O Lord, may Eternal Rest be granted to Mary Tyler Moore! Classy just never goes out of style...
oldtimefreedom ... Change of pace here. Even if this video becomes a sleeper, it was highly rewarding to make it. Let me tell you, she's got a great spot... great sun, feet away from the lake and super quiet. And the folks at the cemetery are genuinely kind people. Great experience.
I was holding and smelling the Angel's Wings votive you sent me while I watched this video for the first time just now - it's funny how things work out in perfect timing. This video especially shows how you're a man of real substance, Shane. I related a lot to the beginning about feeling like an old soul in a child's body, and finding it hard to relate to kids my age, and not really being sure how to be a human being, and desperately looking for how-to instructions from film and television. That's amazing how that woman in the train station shared that story with you on the day of Mary Tyler Moore's passing. Mary's memorial statue is so lovely and comforting, and of course it happens to be a perfect match for Angel's Wings (which you described so accurately; I loved "listening" with my nose for the fragrance notes). The middle of the video with you spilling your vanilla malt everywhere gave me an laugh I really needed! Freakily enough, I actually have that exact Beauty and the Beast magazine and my parents have that Virgin Mary magazine on the far left of Mary's tribute magazine. And next time you need to sand something, I do in fact have a belt sander!
ISITVAINTOSAYIMPRETTY ... It's so very rewarding to read this comment after putting so much effort into making this particular video. I can't fully express my full appreciation for your kindness. So happy you enjoyed.
MusicCityBeauty ... Thanks so much! I'm always trying to expand the boundaries of my content. Thanks for sticking with me! The big 1K, right around the riverbend.
Amazing video and a very touching tribute. You are such a kind and thoughtful person. The effort, time and thought that you put into this is really something special. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. This sounds strange but these unique takes you have with scents and memories feel like a gift🙂
Tracey Elaine ... Tracey, thank you so much for all of your kindness! This one was in the works for awhile. The blizzard set things back a bit :) I can't quite explain my relationship with aroma, but it certainly plays an enormous role in my day to day life. It's never a burden, it's always a blessing. I'm so thrilled that I have a group of folks to share my experiences and stories with. Lots more to come :) Thanks again, Tracey!! :)
Stephanie Civic ... Thank you for saying so and for taking the time to watch. This was truly a beautiful experience, that has left me with no sadness, only joy and a candle that will always take me back to my moment with Mary. :)
Queen Keisha ... So happy to hear this sort of feedback. Thanks so much for your kindness! And I'm glad you're checking out some of my past videos :) Have a great week!!! :)
I feel the same way Shawn does! I think the first video I remember might have been you in the mall, getting the 2016 Fall fragrances & asking folks their opinions? So different from anything else on the YT wax scene... Angel's Wings *is* a gorgeous fragrance. You know, that lily on the label of this candle always reminded me of the ones in the Renaissance paintings of The Annunciation, where the angel Gabriel appears to Mary? So maybe it's supposed to be *his* wings in the picture. Great job of breaking down the sugary notes in here too! This was a really well-done & heartfelt project. Not too surprised you could come up with something like that tho. xo I loved the inscription you wrote to go with your gift too (she was a dancer to begin with, iirc) - perfect candle for her! She, & her characters, have meant something to so many people - women, in particular, I think. A lot of people don't realize what a big deal it was - at the time - for her to even wear slacks on the Dick Van Dyke show!? Sounds crazy now... This was such a beautiful & personal video! I totally forgive you for cutting the Tree Farm segment... ;-)💚
BellBook &Candle ... I'm so appreciative and comforted that folks like Shawn and yourself have been with me through this whole process. This was indeed a personal video, but I'm somehow never bashful to share personal matters. Hitchcock would frequently state, in regards to his films, "If I get 80% of what I set out to achieve, I'm pleased." To me this video was 80%. There's certainly several things I should have addressed, and didn't... about the candle (I didn't fully cover the full aromatic and conceptual profile) and about Mary (especially her massive impact on several generations of woman... and certainly more to come). Some important features slipped through the cracks. I'm hoping that I become a bit more sharp when it comes to dialing it in and focusing on the crucial matters. Your note on Gabriel is brilliant! Thanks for sharing that :) Yep, I had filmed a short piece with me discussing her dancing background, but it ultimately had to get cut for time and pacing. I'm sort of regretting it now. I love those slacks! She told Carl Reiner straight out, "I don't want to look like a television house wife roaming the set in a checkered house gown." What a difference those pants made. It's always a soothing hug and pat on the back when I read your comments... thanks for that!! 💚

Why is ur channel so awesome??
I was expecting you to see that malted milk everywhere like people do in the cinnimon challenge!
Ruffles2012 ... A HUGE thumbs up to that comment! Very strange texture. Haha .. I'll never try that cinnamon challenge :)
I have no idea who Mary was, but your video made me cry..
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. Your sentiment truly means a lot to me. This was a special video to make. Again, thanks so much!
