For him, it's a weekend away of gaming in October and for me, a Halloween wax burner, new fall mugs and I'm thinking some glowy green spider lights. But here's the catch, I'm not buying until this office/catch-all room is DONE.
Talk about motivation.
Meanwhile, check out the Halloween wax burner, along with a 30% coupon. Click Yankee Candle Coupon, to print your own. To view the entire collection, click, Yankee Candle Halloween Collection. Online coupon code is SAVE30 (30% off your entire order). Expiry date 15 of September.
Cheers and boogie boogie.
If both of those gifts make you guys happy, that's what matters.
ReplyDeleteHappy? I'm thrilled. And I know Tim will have fun with his gaming weekend away with his blogger buddies.
DeleteThat is by far the coolest wax burner I have EVER seen!!
ReplyDeleteIt really is :-)
DeleteI like the idea of seasonal mugs! I have dozens of them, and still whenever I open my cupboard in the morning, I'm like - I have no mugs to drink my tea from...
ReplyDeleteDo you have a favorite?
DeleteToday I rotated our mugs and plates. Bowls and all that good stuff. I like to change it up with the seasons.
I love them see-through :) My favourite ones are always the glass ones through which I can see the colour of the tea, the bits of honey and lemon..... I'd love to have a sparkly one too :) but we have no such mugs here ....
DeleteAre you able to order from Amazon? Might be a few sparkly ones there.
Deletenope, too pricey with the customs and we don't have PayPal in my country so we cannot really shop online.
DeleteNo credit card or mac card online purchases either? Oy.
DeleteJust mixed together a homemade vanilla brown sugar latte. Drinking it from my Wonder Woman mug.
halloween approved
ReplyDeleteIndeed it is. Do you and Daisy get into Halloween? She really lucked out with all those cakes. So fun.
DeleteDoes she blog?
That's one pretty cool lookin' wax burner.
ReplyDeleteI love it so much. Hope it's still in stock when we go. Otherwise, I guess I can order it online but it's more money.
DeleteDo you burn wax melts? I like the ones that AC Moore sells. Those are my favorite melts.
Very cool! I got sick of the summer weather around here and went ahead about bought autumn house decorations and candles to try to encourage Fall to get up and running. Took about a week, but the weather has cooled off a bit (we'll see how it lasts...and knowing Colorado, it'll probably snow next week).
ReplyDeleteI was looking through photos of the puppies and saw them covered in snow.
DeleteFall is a great time of year. Will we see any photos of your decorations?
I think the equinox and solstice gifts are an excellent tradition (especially the part about how they can't be practical)!
ReplyDeleteThat's the only rule. It's great fun. A silly little thing and I'm happy that Tim does it with me, now.
DeleteThat is awesome! It's one of the nicest Halloween decorations I've ever seen. I'd probably have it out year long.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, this baby won't get put in storage. It's just too much of a nice piece.
DeleteDo you like to melt wax tarts?
Cool and fun idea
ReplyDeleteIan
Do you have any seasonal traditions?
Deletevery cool crow - my daughter would LOVE that. She started collecting crows - although most of them are in storage now because of the house project. There's still one seated on top of her American Girl doll's head...
ReplyDeleteFunny about it on top of her American Girl doll. Great photos of your little one today, as well. Funny how little dogs sometimes act so big and tough.
DeleteI KNOW! Can you believe YC sent out such a fabulous coupon! I'm trying to make up my mind between the black cat shade of the spiderweb votive holder. And I got Halloween Target Barbie today. Woo-hoo!
ReplyDeleteIt's is a good one. I'm glad too. I missed out on the $10/$25 from last time.
DeleteI'd love to see a picture of your Halloween Barbie. Will she appear on your blog?
PS: Just went and checked. Those are both cool. Boy, this is a fun holiday.
DeleteThat is a nice tradition and your Autmn/Halloween theme is fun.
ReplyDeleteNow get cracking on that room!
I've did a good bit, real happy with what I did today. And thankful to have another day tomorrow.
DeleteLoved the hair on your mini today. Nicely done, that's for sure.
As soon as you're done you can kick back and watch the telly with your feet up and a mug of something warm.
DeleteIt got suddenly cold here and we had a hard frost. It's cold enough to have driven my cat indoors to sleep with me. I hope it warms back up. Too soon to be cold for me.
I just made myself a homemade vanilla brown sugar latte. So good. Not done yet but making good progress.
DeleteCold here this morning. Just starting to warm up now.
Maybe I can actually afford to buy a Yankee Candle. I usually get other less expensive brands.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a favorite flavor? I love the warm smells. Sugar cookie, Christmas cookie, vanillas. But Yankee is so high with their prices, that we've taken to Wally's Mianstays. Hazelnut Cream.
DeleteLove it.
I wouldn't have thought of gifts for solstices or equinoxes...
ReplyDeleteIt's quite fun.
DeleteThat's a fun idea. My mom used to buy us silly stuff when we were kids on all the holidays.
ReplyDeleteSounds fun. What was the silliest gift?
DeleteI think it was for Valentine's Day and it was a small squishy witch (which would've been more appropriate for Halloween...). She was ugly and squat and didn't do anything but I thought she was fun :)
DeleteThat's a good memory. Love those.
DeleteLove it. We like to go on hikes for solstice...
ReplyDeleteI love being outside during these holidays. Do you go anywhere special?
DeleteI think that candle would frighten the life out of my kids!
ReplyDeleteThat's the fun of it.
DeleteWhat a great time for gifting. I love your love of Halloween. Your house must look so festive. And that is such an awesome wax burner. Next shopping trip I'm getting a Halloween mug! :)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing a picture of your new Halloween mug.
DeleteI wish I knew WHY I can't get the REPLY buttons to work. Oh well...
ReplyDeleteAnyway, no, I do not melt wax. I have tons of candles in the house, but I don't burn them, either. I used to, but now there's no place to safely put them and burn them (at least where I can see them and not FORGET about them!).
I just saw that Yankee Candle has a scented flameless collection. Though I haven't seen them in person yet.
DeleteNot sure why the reply button doesn't work. Blogger gets so wonky sometimes.
That crow is awesome! And I love the idea of gift giving during solstice and equinox.
ReplyDeleteIt's great fun.
DeleteOooh, cool decoration! I always buy a new Halloween decoration every year!
ReplyDeleteBest holiday, EVAR :-)
