A Vacation State of Mind; Sometimes You Just Need To Escape the Every Day

A Vacation State of Mind; Sometimes You Just Need To Escape the Every Day

I know I have been quiet for a while. I blame life. Lol! Sometimes things get so crazy all your best laid plans take a hike and before you know it a week (or several) go by. One blessing that came out of all this […]

Hello! Happy New Year (WAY late!) and I hope you are well!

Hello! Happy New Year (WAY late!) and I hope you are well!

Hello! I am back with four new additions to the shop that are absolutely PERFECT for Valentine’s day. Skip the chocolates, the flowers that wilt and the guilt and head for the Valentine candles! I guarantee, every single one is calorie free (though Chocolate Cherry Bomb won’t seem like it), and they last for a nice long time!

NEW gift ideas from the Heartland make gift giving EASY!

Hello December!

I am officially into my Christmas frame of mind and am plotting and planning for a weekend of decorating, tree trimming and gift assembly. Thanksgiving weekend managed to fill up with other projects that prevented me from putting our tree up, but this weekend look out! The house is getting a holiday overhaul! The hubby will be thrilled because it means the tree that has been taking up residence in our garage will finally get moved out of the way and I will be able to say (finally) that I took care of moving it. Yeah, yeah…I know it’s been 10 months that I’ve been promising that but hey. Life happens. Anywhoo, I am looking forward to digging out all my holiday decorations and putting the Autumn decor away. I LOVE Christmas and I generally dive headlong into planning dinners for family and friends, gift wrapping, tree trimming and all the rest of it. I also take the last two weeks of the year off from work so I can truly enjoy it so, yeah, I’m looking forward to that as well. Fifteen workdays and counting…

In other news, I am super excited to announce I have a new gift section in the store and I am working on loading it up with a bunch of different things to make gift giving easy. To start things off with a bang, I have a bright paper package all tied up with string (and aren’t those all of our favorite things?) that I hope lands right on top of your wish list! I have been working on this one for a little while now and am finally ready for the big reveal. So…ready?

Noel Gift Set

Meet Noel.

This gift set is all about the warm and cozy.

Included in each bright red gift box (string included) are a fresh new sweet peppermint candle in an adorable square mason-type jar that I’ve tied with a ribbon. Next is a Noel Gift Set exclusive Heartland cozy in bright, cheery red and a pair of re-usable hand warmers that are just the right size for coat pockets and mittens. All of this is packaged in a sweet red gift box with a hand-stamped note card and envelope for the recipient.

This weekend I will be working on putting together a bunch of other options for combo bundles and gift sets so be sure to check back to see what else is in store! Also, don’t forget to check out all the other great options in candles, cozies, zipper pouches and wristlet key fobs! By the way…these all make great stocking stuffers!

Thanks for stopping by today and remember to share the love! I’d love to hear from you either in the comments or via email or message and if you have a question about anything in my shop, be sure to reach out.

Add some Happy! 5 fun things to do when your week is wearing you down.

Add some Happy! 5 fun things to do when your week is wearing you down.

I believe it is really important to find things that interest us outside of work and all the usual day-to-day stuff we slog through on our way to the weekend. Something that refuels our creative spirit, refreshes our outlook and gives us the energy to keep going.  Self Care is the catchphrase being used of late for this concept, and yes, it is important so why not have a little fun while we are at it?
