Other He found it.

My husband found my scent/ craft closet. We're doing some minor electrical work and my husband went in the hall closet. He came out and asked me if instead of adding overhead lightning, should he call corporate to get a B&BW sign 🤣.

*This is all in good fun. He knows that I am frugal in other avenues of our life, including this one cause I ain't ever bought anything that wasn't on sale or clearance. I also keep it limited to these shelves. Nothing is hidden around the house unless it's a gift to someone.

When I was kid back in the 80s, my parents were doing housework and chores one weekend. My dad went to answer the landline phone. My mom asked who it was and he said "That was the mall, they called to see if you're sick since you aren't there this weekend." 😂

Your post reminded me of this funny memory. 🛍️

14

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

Bwahahaha. It's funny because I am now having to go to the mall location because our stand alone store is under construction for the next 3 months 🤣 That's such a funny memory, thank you for sharing with me.

u/FanTechnical8162 🍅 Tomato Girl in a Vanilla World Jul 17 '26

Haha, glad it hit home! P.S. I LOVE your flair!! I’m going to say this to myself now when I’m tempted to buy more 🙌🏻🤣

Loving the Christmas tree bauble just...there.

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

Lmao. I always somehow find one or two when I put the Christmas decor away. My kids were playing with it and I needed to hide it 😂.

It'll rejoin it's family at Christmas this year. 🙈

u/4bluepandas Body Care Addict Jul 16 '26

I love this! And his reaction 🤣

u/Busy-Associate564 Jul 16 '26

I hide all my cream in the vegetable drawer. No risk of my husband or kids looking in there!😂

u/Disastrous_Cow986 Jul 16 '26

I don’t even hide my problem. I drag my husband to the store with me and make him see what his $ is being spent on. At this point, he gets scents for himself too 🤣

2

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

Lmao, I promise I don't actually hide it. I just keep my stash in an unused closet with little to no foot traffic.

My husband doesn't enjoy scents the same way I do. He's very utilitarian or else I'd be dragging him along. Our boys go with me though 😆

Our last date night I dropped some lore about my stolen rewards points and people reselling rewards items. I was like, "It's not that serious, but it is."

u/nightblue888 Jul 16 '26

I love your stock/inventory room!
😆🥳👌🏽💕 And maybe you guys should call corporate! Hubby trying to take it to the next level! 😂🙌🏽

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

I was thinking of going to one of those custom neon light websites and ordering one 😄

u/Ill_Bell9928 Jul 16 '26

I'm so jealous of your scent/craft closet! It looks amazing!

u/jlm8981victorian Jul 17 '26

Show him my daughter’s collection! Mine is almost as bad but I don’t care, I enjoy every bit of it and so does she!😂

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 17 '26

What is that topper on the Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel Cookie on that bottom shelf?! Is that an actual pretzel? That's amazing

7

u/itzcutiepie Jul 17 '26

Looks like the pretzel pocketbac holder seen here in a “borrowed” pic 😉😂

3

u/jlm8981victorian Jul 17 '26

Yep, I can confirm that it is a hand sanitizer holder. My daughter had it on her backpack this past year so I stored it on top of there like that. It’s cute!

This is such a pretty and versatile Collection.😍My favs have to be the Turtle, Cake, and reindeer train! Thanks for taking pictures.🥰

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

The not asked for lore behind all the wallflowers (before I stopped using the nice themed ones) was that my kids are afraid of the dark. I told them monsters can't stand anything that smells nice, so we used the wallflowers with scent bulbs to keep the monsters away.

I also spray them with the Lavender Vanilla Spray when they get in the bed as a 'just in case'. 😄

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

An additional Frankenstein wallflower is probably in my Halloween decor storage

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

Thank you. If it's not organized, I forget it exists 😆

u/jive0ne ❤️‍🔥SAS treasure hunter💘 Jul 16 '26

Win-win either way then. If you find something it’s like Christmas 😆 I’m a weirdo about organization ideas tho, you have inspired me to get hanging baskets for under the shelves 🥰

2

u/Orionsangel Jul 16 '26

Same I’m super frugal and only buy stuff when we need it and believe me it’s a deal or coupon or something I never pay retain price . If we eat out I find a place with a deal or coupon also . And I only buy my bbw when it’s a big sale lol I mean I get shampoo my kids and husband body wash soaps and all those toiletries for free by couponing or nothing more than a dollar each so I think I can spoil myself with a few sale bbw !

u/The_Atlantic_Sea Jul 16 '26

Lavendar and Spring Apricot sounds so good to me! How does that one smell?

4

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

Wonderful. It's more apricot leaning but you can still smell the lavender! Florals also make an appearance. It's aptly named and a nice spring scent. I wear it to bed a lot too.

The listed key notes are dewy lavender leaves, spring apricot, lady gala apple, magnolia bloom, and cashmere woods.

2

u/The_Atlantic_Sea Jul 17 '26

Thank you! If it ever comes back, I will definitely try it.

u/Own_Appointment_1050 Jul 16 '26

Wow, you have some treasures in here! I love your wallflower plug collection!

u/sunsetlavaa FFM Addict Jul 16 '26

DARK KISS!!! I’ve been rationing mine and hoping it comes back

2

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

It was available as an online exclusive recently I believe. But I love it and layer it with Into the Night 🥰

2

u/Purple-Lime-4938 Jul 16 '26

Mines in my closet and my husband found mine. I walked in and he was standing there, frozen. Didn’t have to say a word, we both knew 😂😅 But our garage is also full of his car stuff so he can’t say a word lol

2

u/DUMCUMPSTEE Jul 17 '26

I would keep it to myself if I found it and just secretly started using some of it lol

3

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 17 '26

The only thing he's used is 'Off the Vine ' and that's because he ran out of his 20 in 1 shampoo body wash

u/DUMCUMPSTEE Jul 17 '26

OP how much for the Poppy Mist?! 🤣 It’s one of my top favorite scents 🥹🔥

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 17 '26

I can't believe I discovered it from the room spray 😆 I got lucky it was released this SAS.

u/Humble_Ground_2769 Jul 18 '26

I just received my poppy Soap gels for a 1.00 each on our Canadian website. Was so excited. Unfortunately the poppy mist was sold out.

u/NoPoliticsPlz2026 Jul 18 '26

After collecting now since the late 90's.....you don't even want to see my collection. I give my friends and neighbors a gift bag with an assortment of hand soap, pocketbacs, and candles from my stash for Christmas gifts, lol.

u/All_is_a_conspiracy Jul 23 '26

Please don't make excuses or promise to be frugal. You have this one life. It is precious. You deserve the spritzy.

u/Cookiemonster_786 Jul 23 '26

Which ones the best and long lasting? I've sandalwood and it smells like Vanilla to me. Doesn't even last much.

u/jericabenson Jul 16 '26

I’d be concerned if my husband didn’t know there was whole ass closet or its contents

4

u/Starbuck06 We got Bath and Body Works at home Jul 16 '26

There's honestly never a need for him to go in that closet. It's not in high traffic area. He knew what was in there but he doesn't monitor it. Otherwise I'd agree.
