It's A Smell-A-Licious Giveaway!

So... since I’ve reached 100+ followers I thought I’d sponsor myself with a smell-a-licious giveaway!  What’s smellin’ so good you might ask?  Why it’s Beanies Natural Soy Candles handmade by little ole’ me of course.

I’ve been making and selling soy candles for about three years but I’m just now introducing them to the bloggin’ world and to you my bloggy friends.  We’re in the process of opening an Etsy shop to make purchases easier for our current and future customers.  

Here’s our story...  My husband and I decided to give candle making a try about four years ago due to my “candle buying addiction”.  In my defense, many of my friends have the exact same addiction or one similar to mine.  Hehe...  We all have a love for something right?  

We researched and tested a wide variety of candle materials for six long months and found that many of the candles I so loved to buy and burn in my home were NOT healthy for our family nor safe for out home.  That was the point in time when I decided to produce clean burning, completely recyclable, yummy smellin’ candles!  This is how and why Beanies Natural Soy Candle Company was born...

A little about...  Beanies candles are dye free, lead free, skin safe and long... burning.  They blend well with any decor, are safe for people with asthma and burn at such a low temperature you can use the melted wax for a wonderful smellin’ self indulging manicure!

Giveaway details...  The lucky winner will receive four 8oz Beanies candles!  That’s approximately 280 hours of burn and smell-a-licious time.  You can choose four different or identical scents from our scent list.  Keep them all for yourself, share them with friends and family or give them as gifts!

The Mysterious Mystery Seeds - Giveaway...

Look what my sweet "little" monsters did!  They raided my {junk}, I mean gardening drawer and guess what they found?  Why Seeds of course!   Actually... they tell me these Seeds they found were {HUGE}! Hummm...  Not so sure if they were {HUGE} or just bigger than the norm? 

What will these Seeds sprout and grow to be?  Will they grow tall or short?  Skinny or wide?  Will these Seeds produce a flower, fruit or vegetable?  I'm kinda hoping for the later!  

{OR}

will these Seeds produce something freaky and scary as seen in the Little Shop Of Horrors!?!  Yikes... could it happen?  A man eating plant living in my very own back yard?  You think?  Well, I guess we'll just have to watch and see. 

I'll be posting pictures, well updates of sorts on my "little" monsters Mysterious Mystery Seed find.  If you think you know what these Mysterious Mystery Seeds might grow into, take a stab at it and let me know! Leave a comment on this post and I'll keep track of the guesses.  Once my "little" monsters Mysterious Mystery Seeds grow enough to clasify them as something real or {unreal}, I'll contact the 1st person who guessed correct!  

And the winner will receive.... A pack of my sweet "little" monsters Mysterious Mystery Seeds!  Whatever they may be... 

Thanks for playing along!  My monsters are so... excited to see what everyone thinks their Seeds will grow to be.
