Today's giveaway is from Nell's Compass, an amazing candle company run by a mother-and-daughter team in California. I love how the beautiful scents of their soy candles were inspired by their favorite places: South takes you to an aunt's flower garden; East transports you to an Italian hillside orchard, West is a masculine candle inspired by the great outdoors, and North is romantic for the winter, as if you're cuddling by a roaring fire. Alex and I were lucky enough to get these candles as a Christmas gift and love them; the scents are pitch-perfect and truly transporting, and they make the whole apartment feel cozy.One winner will receive a full collection of Nell's Compass candles ($140 value). For a chance to win, please visit the Nell's Compass website and online store, and leave a comment below. Good luck, my sweets!
Update: Jacqueline B. is our lucky winner. Thanks for playing. xo

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Will check out the website. Might by the "North" candle now ... : )
ReplyDeleteI love that they use botanical type scents, I am not a fan of "apple pie" and other "false" scents. I look for candles whose scent evokes a memory the way perfume does, not make me wonder who is baking something with too much sugar.
ReplyDeleteI always need more candles :)
ReplyDeleteHad some scented ones this evening when I was laying in the bath, heavenly scent, like the design of these ones tho :)
