Hello dear readers! Sorry it has been quite a while since our last post. I'm still dealing with computer issues, and life has just been a world wind lately! I am currently hijacking Paul's computer in order to write this post. But to try and jump back into blogging I would like to bring you a very special giveaway!
Recently I was contacted by the lovely folks at
Diamond Candles and asked to review one of their products. I was very flattered by this request and gladly accepted. If you have never heard of Diamond Candles before, they have a very
unique product. When you purchase one of their candles, you are also getting a
little surprise inside! Each candle comes with a ring hidden within the wax valuing from $10, $100, $1,000, and even up to $5,000!
You can view all of their
different scents on their website, but I would like to share a little bit about my experience. I selected a
watermelon scented candle. I really love the bright pink color, and was surprised at how large the candle was when it arrived.
I was so excited that I lit the candle right away. I will say that the very first time I lit the candle it was extremely strong. They do say on their website that these candles are "highly fragrant" and they are not kidding. The scent was very nice, but a little to strong for my liking. If you are sensitive to fragrances, then I would suggest only lighting it in a well ventilated room.
The ring in the
Diamond Candle is kept in a small foil pouch just a few inches below the surface. As the wax melts down, the pouch containing your ring is revealed. It does take a few hours for the pouch to come to the surface, but I suppose if you are too excited to wait, you could dig it out with a spoon. But it is fun to watch the progress.
I have to say that watching the little pouch come to the surface as the wax melted was a lot more exciting that I thought it would be. When the wax had finally melted enough to remove the pouch I pulled it out with a pair of tweezers. Make sure you blow out the candle and let the wax cool before removing the pouch.
This is the ring I uncovered. A beautiful faux emerald! And although I didn't find a $5,000 ring in my
Diamond Candle, it was still a really cool experience! This product would make a wonderful gift, and with the
holiday season coming up, you can't go wrong! And each Diamond Candle is only $24.95 so you can get one for everyone on your list, without breaking the bank.
