If you watch any HGTV at.all. You KNOW who Chip and Joanna Gaines are. The stars of HGTV’s Fixer Upper, I think they are my favorite couple on TV. Who doesn’t agree?!
I literally could sit and watch them all day long. And I’m not really a TV watcher. But these two…and the homes they um, fix…up…are beautiful!
And I don’t really know why it took me so long, but I just recently discovered Joanna’s shop – The Magnolia Market. And her blog.
So of course, like a huge fan, I signed up for her newsletter and for deals!
Last week she ran a special on the Magnolia candle and being the sursy giver that I am trying to be {read the post if you haven’t!}, I bought 4. Three to give away and one to keep for myself. I’m keeping one for myself because I need a new candle and I thought this one was pretty 🙂 And every now and then, a girl needs a new candle. And it needs to be pretty. And smell good.
I got my shipment yesterday.
Andrew said, “Hey babe. There’s a big box by the door. Did you see it?”
What he meant was…”Hey babe. I saw you spent some money. Was that in the budget?” 😛
Hehe. har-har. hmmmm.
So I pulled out my pretty candle tonight and I thought about staging some pics for you all to see it…
I was playing around with it on our bar and thought, this isn’t where it’s going to live….so it’s really silly of me to take any pictures of it here.
It’s going to live in our breakfast area in the kitchen, on top of the high-top table.
So. It’s here. Next to Eliza Jane’s first birthday invitations that I’m addressing. And I really wish you could smell it.
It’s called Joanna’s Signature Candle…and has a linen scent. It’s quite lovely.
I love a good candle. And this one is definitely a goody.
I’m really excited for the three folks who are getting one as a sursy!
By the way, have you given a sursy to anyone recently? I got one today from a sweet gal-pal. A fun little notebook that says “So Many Ideas” on the outside…and she wrote a sweet note to me on the inside – about dreaming my little dream.
Have a fun and safe weekend, friends!
