Thanksgiving is Almost Here!


Thanksgiving in my family is always a big deal, with the promise of a table full of food, family, and friends. My mom is the type of person who lives by the motto "the more the merrier" so there's always plenty of extra food for any last-minute guests. She also loves sending everyone home with leftovers, so she makes way more than we could ever eat in one dinner. Every year I look forward to helping her prep the food and then sitting around the table enjoying everyone's company.

Oh and did I mention my Mom is an awesome cook? The food is definitely my favorite part about Thanksgiving haha. Even now my mouth is watering just thinking about her famous stuffed mushrooms...yum! What's your all-time favorite Thanksgiving food? (Everyone has one!)

While you're thinking about your favorite Thanksgiving fare, don't forget to check out my Thanksgiving sale items in my shop!

I wish you all a happy and healthy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving Sale!

Thanksgiving is now only one week away (can you believe it?)! To celebrate the holiday, I am offering my Apple Orchard and Plumberry candles at a discounted price until Friday, 11/25.

Apple Orchard smells just like fresh, crisp apples! After just a few minutes of burning, you'll feel like you're walking through an apple orchard on a cool autumn afternoon.

Plumberry is a unique, yet somehow still traditional, fragrance. with hints of clove, raspberry, pear, and—of course—plum. It’s a bit sweet with just the right amount of autumn-inspired spice.

These two scents are absolutely perfect for the autumn season and would be a wonderful addition to any family gathering or for everyday occasions. Be sure to pick them up before the sale ends!

Giving Thanks

I am SUPER excited for Thanksgiving. This past year has been really rough on my family for various reasons, so this holiday season will be especially important for us. I know we are all looking forward to being together and finally having a chance to treasure the good things in our lives, rather than focusing on the difficult times we've had during the past several months.

In honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, I'm featuring some of my favorite pieces on Etsy that would certainly adorn my Thanksgiving dinner table if I had a bit of extra cash!

 First some lighting to create a cozy atmosphere...These would be perfect for some of my tealights!
