Essential Oils in Burners and Candles

by

candles in bathOne of the simplest way to use essential oils in aromatherapy is in an oil burner. Many of them use a tea light candle to burn the oil above them. A few drops in the burner bowl with some water will last a long time and perfume the air naturally. A little essential oil goes a long way and if you keep that in mind, it’s not so expensive.

Ayurvediccure.com sells high quality aromatherapy products including essential oils. One of my favorite scents is Ylang Ylang. As a bonus it helps release stress and promotes relaxation.

If you don’t want to use an oil burner or make your own aromatherapy candles, they sell candles too. Their lavender and rose candle is a lovely combination of classic scents that smell divine.

Okay, confession time: I’ve always dreamed of having a Highland cow as a pet. There’s just something magical about their shaggy coats, sweet eyes, and gentle nature that makes them utterly irresistible.

This adorable PDF pattern lets you stitch up your very own fluffy Highland friend, complete with detailed photo instructions that guide you every step of the way. Whether you’re crafting it as a cuddly toy, a cozy décor piece, or a unique gift, this little cow brings all the charm without any of the farm chores.

It’s suitable for confident beginners and experienced sewists alike, and with the right fabric (faux fur, anyone?), you can really bring that signature Highland cow fluff to life. And yes, I’m already picturing a mini herd in festive scarves come Christmas!

At CraftGossip, we love supporting independent Etsy sellers who bring whimsy and heart into their handmade patterns—and this one is a standout. So if you’re like me and secretly dream of Highland cows roaming your living room, this might just be your next feel-good project.
