Yankee Candle Haul


One day last week there was a code floating around for 50% off everything on the Yankee Candle website, so I jumped on it as soon as I found out.  It's a good thing that I did because apparently the code was only meant for employees and only worked for a very short time.  I got 8 large jars.  4 of them came today and 4 will be coming later in the week.

Descriptions from the website:

Mountain Lodge - A luxurious retreat in front of a cozy hearth, warm with the aroma of cedarwood and sage.  Experience the authentic, true-to-life fragrance, with pure, natural extracts, and renowned Yankee Candle quality
Cranberry Pear - A positively delectable union of sweet and tart..fresh orchard pears drizzled with decadent cranberry syrup
Sunflower - A picturesque fragrance of radiant sunshine and wistful floral notes
Mango Peach Salsa - Sweet and zesty..juicy mangoes and peaches livened with citrus, ginger flowers, and pink pepper

What I'm Burning 6/15/14


Here is what I burned for June.  It was the scent Berry Colada in a large jar.  It was a nice, refreshing summer scent!!

Yankee Candle Summer SAS Haul #2







Here is my second and final haul from the summer SAS sale.  I got 6 more large jars and that black stand.  The stand wasn't on sale but it was one of those things that I had to have.

Descriptions from the website:

Fluffy Towels - The fresh scent of clean towels warm from the dryer with notes of lemon, apple, lavender, and lily
Tulips - Naturally clean and bright, it captures the essence of a dewy spring morning
Beach Flowers - Like delicate keepsakes from the sea..the lovely scent of tuberose, lily, and hyacinth blossoms balanced with soft watery notes
Beautiful Day - Life is good with this happily enchanting mix of sunny fruits, pretty flowers, and spicy herbs
Oatmeal Cookie - Warm and fresh from the oven.  Just like Mom used to make.  We've brought back one of your treasured fragrances from the past for a limited time
Tutti Frutti - Forever young..the happy candy aroma of a cherry, raspberry, strawberry, and lemon whirly pop

Mini Yankee Candle Summer SAS Haul


When the SAS haul started there was some that I wanted that were sold out before the sale even began.  I was a little sad.  I'm in a group on Facebook for people, like myself, that are addicted to Yankee Candle.  So I posted on there asking if anyone would be willing to pick them up for me.  Luckily a very nice lady said she would.  She only found 3 of the 4 that I wanted, Beautiful Day ended up being restocked so I got it eventually :)  I was so grateful for her generosity!!

The scents that I got:

Cherry Blossom
Sweet Honeysuckle
Blueberry Muffin

Yankee Candle Summer SAS Haul #1



It's that time of year again.  The time for the Yankee Candle SAS!!  I was so excited.  This is my first of many hauls.  I got 9 large jars and one Illumi-lid.  The lid wasn't on sale but I had seen it in the store when I went shopping for my birthday and I had to have it.

Descriptions from the website:

Beach Vacation - A tropical island getaway..a fresh sea breeze mingles with lush greenery and sweet exotic flowers
Garden Hideaway - A peaceful escape filled with the sweet scent of beautiful garden flowers.
Country Linen - Like a fresh, floral breath of spring air through an open window on a sunny day
Pineapple Citrus - Fresh island pineapple served with a citrus touch and sweet coconut is a bit like sipping a tropical drink al fresco
Tropical Fruit - A luscious mix of sunny sweet, fresh-picked mangos and bananas with an irresistible touch of jasmine
Fruit Salad - It's a festive summer party with this bright, fun mix of juicy, sun-rich melons, berries, and citrus
Blueberry - Wonderfully tangy and sweet..a pure, delicious burst of juicy wild blueberry aroma
Blueberry Scone - The delicious aroma of English quick bread with sweet blueberries, rich cream, and a hint of vanilla
Sea Coral - Like gliding along a tropical reef, this unique watery fresh fragrance surrounds you in the soothing warmth of sea musk

Birthday Haul

This year I celebrated my 23rd birthday on Memorial Day.  To celebrate, me, my fiancĂ©, and a friend went shopping.  I went to Yankee Candle (of course) but I didn't get much because I knew their SAS haul was starting soon.  I got this candle necklace.  I had seen a few people had them before and I wanted one but I could never find any.  I really like it.  I hope they come out with more.  As of right now I think that they only have this one available.  I think it makes the candles look pretty, and if you know me, you know that I love anything sparkly!!






What I'm Burning 5/21/14

The time came to start another candle so I went and pulled this one out of my stash.  It's a large jar of Ocean Star by Yankee Candle.


Description from the website: Soothing and fresh..the scent of peaceful, sun-kissed waters laced with aloe, citrus, and lotus blossom.  Dive in!
