Candles




This past weekend hubby and I went to the mall for some much needed shopping. Ok not so much needed as wanted. I was able to find a white summer dress with flowers on it less then half off (have to love the end of season’s bargains). I also found a cute cardigan to go with it and hubby picked out another shirt for me for fall and that was $1.00! Have to love those JC Penny bargains. We also bought some adorable curtains for the backroom. They are a light green with very small pink flowers on it. I will post pictures once we have those up. After that we went to the Yankee Candle store. They have a sale for a few candles of buy one get one half off on select fragrances. We bought the Harvest scent and the Farmers Market scent. I will say this, it is amazing how you can smell a candle at a store yet when you get it home to burn it has little to no smell. I called the store to find out if by chance I could return it since I was unhappy with the smell of the Harvest candle. To my surprise they said yes! They actually have a scent guaranteed policy if you don't like it bring it back. I was surprised even after I burned the candle for a few hours they would still take it back. Well I was very happy to not be stuck with a non smelling candle. What great customer service that is. The Farmers Market candle has a stronger smell then the Harvest still not as strong as I prefer but it is nice. Kind of like a peach smell to it. I enjoy the fruit smells and of course cinnamon makes your home feel warm and inviting. And how can any nesting chick resist the urge to feather her nest with new candles.
