I am jealous.  You live near the Fiestaware factory?  :-P

I think your ideas are great! I especially like the idea of blueberry in a blue
cup, etc. 

BTW you are not the only one who saves those stupid jars!  I even have a
hideous tin can that held a candle....oh...about 15 years ago!  I just can't
part with it, but it is so ugly I just can't put a new candle in it
either..lol.  I don't burn candles often because I am sensitive to fragrances,
but I do tolerate the vanilla, cinnamon, apple scents as long as they are not
too strong.  My grandmother gave me a "Sugar Cookie" candle a few years
ago...OMG it smells sooooo good.  I keep it out year round even though it is
decorated with a Christmas theme.  I was just burning it the other day right
before my son's party and my mother in law finally said...."Where are the
cookies?  They smell so good"  hehehe.
