CANDLES-
I found the glass for $5 at a local antique store.
To temper the glass, I heat a large pot of water and add the glass and slowly bring to low boil. I remove and let cool down.
I heat the candle wax to 185 degrees and add 15-20 drops essential oil of choice. I let the wax cool down to 140 before pouring into the glass (be very careful).
I add dried flowers of choice after the wax has had some time to harden, but still a bit soft on top. After 8-24 hrs the candles are ready to burn.

Hi Rachel. New subscriber here from Naomi's channel. Love her channel, and she recommended yours. I'm looking forward to watching your videos. Have a great weekend ❤❤
I came over from Noemi’s channel. Your video was gorgeous and very inspiring. I’m going to be following you too!
@@heidicanton956 thank you! So happy to have you here!

Greetings! I’m a new viewer who came from Noemi’s video in this collaboration to your channel. I’m happy to find you. Thank you for the lovely video!

Yay! Happy you're here!
I love BOTH OF YOUR CHANNELS! My two favorite channels full of inspiration and beautiful homemaking 💕
Thank you so much!!
Hi, I'm here because of Noemi from Scandish home. I'm glad, that I found your chanel. I really love calming home making videos like Noemis and now yours too.
I love your relaxing videos so much! We just switched to the metal containers too! We had so many mice! 🤪Thank you so much for this fun collaboration, Rachel it meant so much to me that we were able to create together! I appreciate your friendship so much! 🥰🤗❤❤❤
Love YOU!!!!
I bet Melanie is smiling down on your wildflower candles 🥰
Aww.. I believe she is. Miss her dearly
❤ Yay, a chicken update ❤
Another beautiful video. Love the music and calmness. The boys are so adorable eating their meatball sandwiches. They are blessed to have you as their momma. And those candles are awesome. 💜💛
Please be sure to check if the essential oil you are using is good for dogs or other animals.
Absolutely. Question: do you have a source you suggest looking for accurate information on this? I can't seem to get a straight answer on which are safe and not safe, and I'm debating discontinuing use altogether because of all the misinformation. I certainly don't want to contribute to misinformation either. =(
Always love your videos ❤
HI 👋 RACHEL I LOVE ❤️ YOUR VIDEOS AND ALL THE THINGS YOU DO ALL AROUND YOUR BEAUTIFUL HOME 🏡
Glad to see you just come over from scandish home xxxx
Noemi sent me. I will be watching your content from now on. You and Noemi have the best content. Thank You!
@@robingray8822 so happy you’re here!! 🙌🏻
Awww those silkies are the cutest!!!! I have rescued chickens for many years now, since I started to rescue I couldn't eat meat anymore I mean they are precious innocent living beings.
Make that coop more predator proof because sooner or later predators will start to try to get to your chickens (trust me). These expensive but so worth it check them out NESTERA COOPS and OMLET COOPS THEY ARE THE BEST!!!
Also please use hardwire mesh all around the coop and make a skirt all over so no one can dig inside.
Raccoons, coyotes, foxes, etc will do anything to get to your chickens.
I hope you take this into consideration and do it and if you do make a video so we can all learn :) :) :)
always inspiring and beautiful Rachel, cheers!
Another thing you can do against ticks: *homemade food is best for dogs always* and especially when you want to avoid ticks.
You can add garlic (yes, dogs can eat garlic) and brewer's yeast to the food and It changes dog smell (we don't feel it but the ticks do) and is a natural tick repellant.
Of course, everything I say came from a veterinarian specializing in dog nutrition, It's not something I just read on the internet😅
(My dog was full of ticks every year in the spring until we switched to homemade natural food)😊
Hi! Just happen upon your channel. Where can we find your room spray recipe? Good to know about lavender and cedar wood for ticks - we just moved to the country and our pups is loving his great outdoors. Do you have any flea and tick repellent recipes to use on pets? Thanks!
I came from Noemi's channel and now I'll subscribe to you too! Loved this video!
Will be happy if you would like to join me as well ❤love from Dubai
Hi Rachel! I love all your videos :) you are a sweet soul that the world needs more of! I was wondering which pool you have/if you knew what size it was? Thanks so much!
I’m so happy I rediscovered your channel, your videos are so relaxing and relatable
I love your content! I've been wanting to try making candles at home..do the essential oil soybean candles throw scent properly?
New subscriber here from Scandish Home, Noemi. Love your channel.
So many cool ideas! I love the candles and all the diy products. Such relaxing videos ❤
Loved your video and came over from Noemi's. The meatballs looked so tasty!
Noemi suggested your channel and i am glaaad i clicked the link 😊😊😊😊
Maybe I will get those dryer balls instead of using dryer sheets as they seem to be much better for the environment :)
Rachel, I've always loved your videos!! Thanks for another great one :) I've noticed that you've been changing your thumbnails the last few videos, and the design isn't really resonating with the feel of your channel - perhaps return to your old thumbnail structure? But that's just my thoughts!
@@loomonda18 Yeh. I have a few options I've been experimenting with. Do you feel it's too young/ colorful? Bubbly? These are how I used to do my thumbnails back in the day, so I was experimenting with them again. I have a few options I've saved that I can switch to.
@@racheltalbottYes a bit too young feeling, imo - but I like the addition of text to the thumbnail so you get a sense of what the video is about. But perhaps adding the text without all the colour over top of the thumbnails, in a more neutral/white to make it feel more elevated? Just suggestions!
@@loomonda18 I will try some options. It’s challenging to get the font to pop.
@@racheltalbott For sure! Maybe adding a black/grey drop shadow or even putting the white text over top a black box, or vice versa - hope my suggestions were of some help!
@@loomonda18 for sure. Thanks for the suggestions
Officially one of my new favorite videos from you Rachel 😉 Loved EVERYTHING about this!! The wildflowers were definitely my favorite 🌼
Yay! Thank you!

Hello, Noemi sent me, love her videos!
I found you through the Scandish home. Beautiful video. Wishing you a fantastic summer. ☀️🌄⚘
Am from kerala❤i love your vedio more then anyone🫂
I’m coming over from Scandish home. The milk glass candle was so beautiful!
@@jenniferb.7250 thank you! Happy to have you here 💕
i remember watching you when i was 12! 8 years ago watching your DIY, lifestyle and home style videos, i just checked back in and im so happy ur still making videos that I can finally relate to lol ❤
Rachel, in our journey with chickens these last 3 years, my husband researched hemp as a henhouse filler from Carolina Coops. We order it online and change it out once a “year”! Less flies too. It also makes it easy to sift out the manure for the garden. When I do replace it, I scatter it under the fruit trees. 🍊Works fantastic!
Lovely video! 😊
Hi! I’m a new subscriber thanks to Noemi, Scandish Home 💖 I’m so excited to see your videos and get new ideas 🌸🌸🌸
Hi! Naomi recommended your channel and I loved this first video. You have a new subscriber!
Love your videos.When I feed the birds we get mice and field rats..any suggestions?
We are in Knoxville Tn
Visiting from Scandish Home. I enjoyed your video and subscribed to see more.
Awesome! Thank you! Happy to have you here! xo
I always been watching Naomi love her videos how awesome both of my favorite UA-camr collaborated ❤
ahh, those candles!! :D
Could you do a video on growing herb? I.e. Best time of year to grow each type, when to harvest, how to dry/store, reliable books or websites to help with starting/having a herb garden. I want go start one but don't know where to begin ❤
Yes. I can definitely do more videos on herbs!
I came to watch your videos because Noemi suggested to on your collaboration together.
I loved it. Although I live in the UK it’s great to see how other families live, even though you are on the other side of the world values and daily life is similar. 🌿
regarding the video suggestion you asked for -3 to 4 videos but longer..smaller and just one video won't work :)
Just came over from Noemi 😊 regarding essential oils, please choose carefully as many are very harmful to pets.
Thanks for stopping by. Absolutely. These two are considered safe for cats and dogs. =) xo
🤍 im. Loving your summer vlogs...the asthetics and the outdoors chores 💚 💐 🌹 🌸
Kisses from Miami !
Quick question, where do the ticks go when using your repellent?
I really enjoy watching your videos! They're so relaxing. I loved the candles so beautiful 🌻💐🧡
Thank you for watching! So happy you enjoy them.
Lemon balm for the chickens! Yay ❤🥰
Lovely! 💛💛💛
I’m a fan of scandish home and got an idea of your channel😊 I got love to your channel too❤
Hello. Noemi sent me 😊 Loved your video & subscribed ❤
Washing rugs in a washing machine is absolutely wrong! 👎
Small area rugs? How do you wash them?
You had me at dairy free!
❤
She's amazing! You'll love her!
Beautiful video...I love your meatball recipe, and your homemade candles are so natural and pretty with the flowers added in!
Thank you!
Love this especially the part on the candle making. I just hate buying candles and throwing away the containers. Thanks I’m going to buy this one from Amazon too.
Plz share the link ❤

Tractor Supply 🙅♀️👎🏻
not a fan? lol
Thank you for putting time and effort into your videos for us to watch your amazing
Absolutely right ❤
New subscriber cane over from Scandish home .
I loved seeing how one of your summer days goes along. The pool reminded me of the one we had in our backyard as kids and fighting over who gets to skim the leaves. Your wild flower field is so beautiful and I can remember pressing flower's in books as a kid too. The chickens have deluxe accommodations and there's nothing cuter than baby chicks. I was wondering if you worried about hawks and other predator's when the chicken's are free ranging? I watch Farmhouse on Boone and she always has the most beautiful colored eggs on her counter. I hope the California cousin are coming for a visit. Thanks for a nice morning with you.
Thank you!! predators aren't as bad here so far, thank goodness. We will see over the next few years. Cousins are coming next week! xo
Have a great time!!!
Your life it’s a dream. Love your videos
Hi from Jeffreys Bay, South Aftica! So glad that you have a like-minded friend in Naomi 😊 I am also a fan of essential oils and this week I made a fantastic mouthwash using filtered & boiled water 1/2 litre + 3 tablespoons xylitol + 8 drops peppermint oil ❤ have a blessed week!
That sounds amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Here from my lovely scandish home love u noemi
She's the sweetest. So glad we met through UA-cam! Thanks for stopping by! So happy to have you here! xo
I found your channel through Naomi at Scandish Home. So happy I did. Love from Missouri
Thanks for stopping by! So happy to have you here!
New subscriber here lovely video x
Hello ❤
I found your channel a few years ago during a tough time, I just recently got an alert for it again and I can’t believe I’ve been away for so long 💔💔 I’ve missed your content so much it really motivates me to get my life together 💚🫶 keep up the amazing work and thank you for your amazing videos!
oh wow! I'm so happy you're here! Sending lots of love!
I’m here from Noemi’s channel 😊
Noemi, sent me to see ur channel ...Hi 🌷
She's amazing!! Thank you for checking out my channel. So happy to have you here!
Love all your home and cleaning videos. You help me get things done ❤ I’d love to see a video about turning a day around and beginning tasks after an unproductive morning. Thankful for your content 💕
That's a great idea! I actually had that on my list of ones to do.
Hi Rachel! Loving the content as usual ❤ I just wanted to ask if you still do tiktok lives? I wasn't able to catch you lately...
Hey! I haven't in a minute, but I will try to do more soon!! xo
Yay!!!! A longer video, thank you!!
yay!!
beautiful video!!
Your videos are my therapy 🫰🌸💚
That makes me so happy to hear. I love to create videos.
We have lots of ticks in the lawn. Any recommendations??? Love your cozy home videos ❤❤❤😊
Try the product Wondercide. It's helpful. They are seriously everywhere this year. I found one crawling on me this morning!!!!
@racheltalbott thank you!!! Me too, found one crawling on me. Ick
Beautiful video ❤
Thank you!
Do you use the tick repellent spray on your dogs or another natural form?
I give them a trio that the vet gives me for them to take. It's called Siamparica.
@@racheltalbott thank you. I was looking for a natural alternative.
@@kikiob3628 yeh. I wish all natural worked, but unfortunately with how bad tick disease and heart worm disease is out here in Tennessee, I have to give them the medication and also I use some natural options around the house too.
Please do not use EOs in the dryer, it is a fire hazard❤
Oh wow! I will have to research this. As I understood, a few drops on the dryer balls is ok. First I've heard this. Thanks for the heads up. I certainly don’t want any fire hazards!
@@racheltalbottyou might want to also research glass suitable for candles. I was super concerned to see thrifted glass used and am worried about them exploding around your family when the candles burn. Much like how not all glass is oven safe or microwave safe, a lot of glass is unsafe and unstable for direct heat/flame and could shatter. Please stay safe and happy.
@@_Jadot_ yeh. I did research that, and thick glass like these should be ok, but to be honest there are mixed opinions on both of these issues. The essential oils and the glass. Most of my research indicates that the flashpoint of the essential oil matters when it comes to the dryer, and a few drops shouldn’t cause a problem, however if there’s any concern it may be best to avoid altogether. I always turn my dryer off when I leave the house out of concern for a fire.
