Pumpkin Pie, Anyone? Cinnamon Buns?

Yummmmm.....Smell that pumpkin pie?  Those cinnamon buns and the wonderful smells of Autumn?  I do!  I'm surrounding myself with homey, cozy, spicy scents from Good Neighbor Candles - You know - Becky at Hospitality Lane?   I have meaning to order some of her luscious soy candles for months  and I figured since it was Autumn  and those are my favorite smells, NOW was the time!   I received my candles a few days ago, and thought I should show you all what she sent, and then you can turn pea green with envy til you order some for yourselves!!!

Look at these yummy candles.  I ordered some Pumpkin Pie Spice, Cinnamon Buns and Autumn Spice candles.  Think I'll be using them exclusively this fall!  Thank you so much Becky!  They all got here in perfect shape and I started using them as soon as they arrived.  Can't decide which is my favorite yet...

Above, one candle burning on my pie safe next to my little homemade spice cabinet that old Uncle Claude built for his wife.  Uncle Claude built this little farmhouse, the pie safe, and this little cabinet.

On my farm table, this candle has three wicks so it gives off a great scent . My rooster likes it alot and thinks it really brings out his good side...  He sits there with my cornicopia. 

Anyway, Becky, thanks so much for such a wonderful product - I know you made these lovingly and with great pride and I really am enjoying the soy candles.  And thanks for all the little extra "goodies" you tucked in my box!

Oh Vickie....They look so cute with your decor. Thanks for showing them to us!! I love your rooster....

It was my pleasure to make your candles. I'm pleased that you like them. Hopefully you will become a soy convert.

Vee said...

Oh you'll love them all right. I had one of mine burning this evening just for the glow and to help me ward off the chill. Glad that you tried them out! Becky does send the neatest extra goodies.

Oh sigh... I so miss scented candles. With age, I've developed allergies, and scented candles can no longer be part of my life. -phooie- -pout-
