Diamond Candles Review

Diamond candles, soy candles is one of the most unique products I have ever reviewed. Their candles are earth friendly made from natural soy. Besides being a great candle, inside every candle is a diamond ring worth $10, $100, $1,000, or $5,00.

I have to admit as my candle was burning I was so anxious to see what kind of ring was inside my candle. Here is the ring I got inside my candle.

I was very impressed! Looks nice. I have no idea how much it is worth but it was a really fun experience.

Diamond candles come in many scents and sell for just $24.95 a candle. What a fun gift!

Be sure to follow Diamond Candles on Twitter and Facebook.

By Becca Painted Glass Review

This Abby Pattern hand-painted wine glass is so elegant. The brush strokes used to make these flowers create a picture that is very life-like and realistic; and the colors are blended ever so slightly in order to make a more natural look. 

The glass itself is sturdy and of good quality. Visit By Becca's website to see her new Christmas glasses!

Auric Blends Perfume: Review and Giveaway

Auric Blends sent me three bottles of perfume and a sample of incense to review. I received two 1/3 oz bottles of fine perfume oils, Egyptian Goddess and Love; along with a 1/5 ounce perfume solid called Ambrosia. They all smell fantastic! I would say that I am a person that is addicted to perfumes; I had four bottles of perfume that I would switch between before these arrived and I haven’t even touched them yet. These three perfumes have quickly become my favorites. I especially like the Egyptian Goddess perfume, it is a must have! I have worn some expensive perfumes in my day but this brand of perfume has topped them all for me. I don’t think I can settle for anything else now.

I was a little worried when I saw how small the amounts were, 1/3 of an ounce seems like it wouldn't last long, however, I have been using my perfumes quite liberally the last few weeks and it looks like they aren’t even used. Also, I had to try the solid perfume to see if I would like it, and I do. It is a blend of pure coconut oil and beeswax with their custom fragrances. 

Softlips Review & Giveaway

I love Softlips! I have been able to do several reveiws for them. They are currently lunching their winter flavors: Winter Mint, Sugar Cookie, Sugar & Spice, and Sugar Plum Berry. All the flavors are very yummy. My favorite would have to be the Sugar Plum Berry! 

Softlips has some creative ideas for you to use Soft Lips to add a little something to your gifts:

  These would also be cute to jazz up our bridal shower gifts as well!!

Soda Stream Review

This is my new favorite wedding gift idea! I simply love it. Soda Stream machine, turns water into soda.

Soda Stream sent me a machine for review. This is so much fun! You simply fill the bottle with water, connect to your machine to fill with carbon dioxide, and add the flavoring that you want and you have soda! Our favorite was the root beer. It tastes the same as store brand soda's! It's fun and cost effective!

It doesn't just make soda, it also makes energy drinks, carbonated waters, and teas. They're are all kinds of flavors available. Diet and regular. Over 30 flavors. Check out all their flavors by clicking here.Regular flavors contain no high-fructose corn syrup and diet flavors use Splenda not aspartame.

You can purchase your own Soda Stream online, or at major stores like, Kohls, Bed Bath and Beyond, Best Buy, Macy's, Sears and more. Find a store near you here. 

When your carbonator runs out, take it in to your nearest location to get a replacement. It's just that easy. It was amazing to lood and see several locations within 5 miles that I can go to and refill my carbonation canister. Places like Bed Bath & Beyond,Williams-Sonoma and more. Find your locations here. Or arrange online to exchange it through mail service.
