Goose Creek

For those of you waiting on the photography post I still have not been able to edit and add in the photos. Lovely little Lola has not slept much these last four nights which means I have gotten basically no work done seeing how I only work when the girls are sleeping. (And that means if you are waiting on and e-mail I am behind on those terribly too!) As soon as I have a chance to get it finished though I will post it - hopefully at some point this weekend!

In the meantime we have a giveaway for you! YAY! Goose Creek Candle Co. recently sent me two of their heirloom candles to review and also the winner of this giveaway gets their choice of two candles and all of our readers get a 25% off discount code!


When the package arrived I have to say I was thrilled with the appearance of the candle. I don't like when candles have bright busy stickers on them and so I just loved the simple elegance of these! And I loved the silver stamped tops!

And once it was lit it smelled beautifully and burned very evenly.



 Their heirloom candles come in a variety of scents including the dark vanilla bean shown above and the blueberry passion shown below.

Goose Creek Candle Co. is kindly offering all of our readers 25% off 
with this coupon code: 08051212
